This is something fun to do for a culture lesson. I made it to use independently of my other culture activity (My Culture Booklet), but it can certainly be added to it, specifically the culture quilt square craft.
I plan to use a QR code generator (just google QR code generator and choose one of the many free sites) to make personalized QR codes and place in the center of each square. When scanned, theyll hear the student talking about their culture :)!
I'm so psyched about this!!! Let me know i

- three activities:
-- run-on fixer upper
-- run-on rover
-- wear it proud

* recording sheet

So, if your kids are two-digit subtraction champions :) BUT are a little stumped when it comes to regrouping to the hundreds place, then this is the activity for you.
This activity can be used as an I-Spy game or simply as a group/partner/independent activity to help your kids practice subtracting with regrouping.

I dont know if this has happened to you but when I teach two-digit addition my kids usually get really good at adding with or without regrouping separately. When I give them a little bit of both together in one activity though, it's like I never taught it and they never learned it :/. On that note, I decided that they needed more exposure to mixed two-digit addition equations with/without regrouping and made this activity.
This file includes:
directions
equation cards
recording sheet

This is a response sheet that you can use as you teach recognizing how a character responds to a major event or challenge. You can make this into a poster, use under the document camera, and/or make copies for the kids to use independently.
Here are some titles of great books to use with this sheet:
"A Chair for My Mother"
"Memory String"
"Nana Upstairs and Nana Downstairs"

So after making a plural nouns endings activity for y and s, I decided to make this sorting activity to review endings -ies along with y and s.
Students decide which ending goes with the word in the box sheet and write it in the line next to it.
They then cut out the boxes and sort them into the foldable with two flaps.
Hope this is as helpful and fun for your kids as it was for mine :).
