Your students will love this lesson that integrates art, math (learning about angles, shapes, and patterns), and technology. This lesson comes full with hyperlinks to videos, text, and background information. Additionally, this lesson has visuals, entrance and exit tickets. Your students will learn about a fascinating culture, their history and why they make totem poles while using math skills. This lesson was a huge success before the hyperlinks and videos were added. Be prepared to have th

Wow! My students loved this lesson and yours will too. Students can use this PowerPoint to create their own popular sneaker based on real student data. Once they complete a survey, they will graph the data to see which color combination is most popular. This lesson is filled with hyperlinks to wonderful websites as well as different learning preferences. C'mon... who doesn't want to create their own sneaker?

This is a full art lesson on Alexander Calder, and his MOBILES. You will find that using PowerPoint with cross curricular connections in both math and language arts makes this lesson a perfect one. This lesson was used for second grade, but there are applications for kindergarten and first grade. This PowerPoint builds background, discusses mobiles, shapes (organic and geometric)! This is a wonderful lesson with plenty of visuals, entrance and exit tickets!

This spreadsheet is filled with an interactive graph based on real data that your students put into the spreadsheet. Their are hyperlinks for students to use (video and text for differentiation) to learn how to check their pulse. This would be a great lesson to complete for a heart healthy unit, or just to teach kids to stay active during wintery weather. There are follow up questions that are at the bottom of the spreadsheet that will help them analyze their own data. Kids will love this les

You and your class will love solving this elementary school caper. Your students will use their geometric and measuring skills to find out which student took the schools activity funds. The story takes place over two math lessons (measuring and shapes) with entrance and exit tickets. Students also have the chance to explore what they already know with measuring a set of shapes (4 slides of printables that students can measure), printable rulers, printable student fact sheet and a printable shape

Your students will enjoy this lesson whether they are in a traditional classroom or in the lab. When I teach addition and subtraction story problems I think it is best to teach the students using visual and auditory methods. This lesson incorporates visual tracks, traditional vertical problem solving, as well as embedded voki’s that will allow students to hear the story problem. I chose voki characters that will help motivate students to complete one problem in hopes there is another surprise

You and your class will love solving this St. Patrick’s Day mystery. Your students will use their geometric and measuring skills to find out which leprechaun took the schools pot o’ gold. The story takes place over two math lessons (measuring and shapes) with entrance and exit tickets.

• This KIDSPIRATION 3 file will help students understand the importance of recycling, sorting, and counting to twenty. • To do so, students will read the directions (or use Kidspiration’s text to voice feature) in order to sort the correct items to be recycled and thrown away. • Your students will have a great time sorting items from the cafeteria table, or even the dining room table as click and drag items from the table to the correct bin. • This lesson was used for both kindergarten and f

This Kidspiration 3 file is one of my favorites. It allows students to discuss information about themselves and share/compare it with other students. The Leprechaun glyph shows how each person has similarities and differences. The file is loaded with prerecorded voice buttons that students can follow to build their custom glyph. Students get a chance to choose from pictures that “represent them”, and drag it over to the workspace. Once there, students will resize the item to best fit the workspa

Thank you for showing interest on the “ Love Beads” lesson. I used it with my class just this year (times four- because I am a special area teacher) and each class love it.

Activity 6. Models (photographs)/ tools/ art techniques 7. Vocabulary sheets 8. Student reflection sheet 9. Student and teacher made rub

Having trouble motivating your students with adding and subtracting double (or triple digit) addends. Use this great file. I created this excel spreadsheet to allow student to click and drag house layouts, furniture, and even plants to an area of land. Once they choose an item, they type it in the spread sheet and tally it up. There is a self check feature on each page to see if they added or subtracted correctly. If you have extra time or you want to turn it into a game, print out the car
