Stuff Not Fluff

A few important notes: There are 20 pages of practice phonics questions (7 questions per page) and 5 practice phonemic awareness tests (13 questions per test).I reviewed every published resource I could find to help write practice questions that match ACAP phonics and phonemic awareness questions as best I could (except that I made my questions more difficult than I expect the ACAP test will be). That said, some of how the questions will be worded is guesswork. The one big deviation I made from

This product contains 144 subtraction worksheets (and answer keys), with a mix of questions requiring and not requiring regrouping: 24 pages subtracting within 100 using base-ten blocks (5 questions each)24 pages subtracting within 100 using partial differences (5 questions each)24 pages subtracting within 100 using an open number line (5 questions each)24 pages subtracting within 1000 using base-ten blocks (3 questions each)24 pages subtracting within 1000 using partial differences (3 questions

This product contains 60 addition worksheets. At the top of each worksheet are examples for how to solve addition equations using partial sums (making them especially helpful for homework, as parents can see how the problems are being solved). There are: 24 worksheets for addition within 10012 worksheets for addition within 20024 worksheets for addition within 1000The addition within 200 problems (all two-digit plus two-digit) help bridge the gap between addition within 100 and addition within

15 worksheets are provided. These are used to have students practice splitting words into a base word and affix(es). The first 10 worksheets have words with just one affix. The last 5 worksheets have words with two or more affixes. The affixes that are used, and their meaning, is provided at the top of each page. NOTE: For many words, determining the meaning is as simple as combining the base word and the meaning of the affix. For example, "tallest" means "most tall." For some, the wording might

This product is two simple second-grade shapes tests (2 pages each). One is labeled as a practice test. There is nothing special or difficult about the test. It is meant to test very basic knowledge regarding polygons, triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and cubes.

I use these with struggling readers to teach high-frequency words while emphasizing phonics patterns. Included are three files. The first two files are the same content. These files are 500 high-frequency word cards, from a more up-to-date list than Fry and Dolch, compiled by Devin Kearns. One file is ready to be printed on index cards. If you are able to do this, I recommend it (to avoid needing to cut apart the cards). The other file is ready to be printed on a normal sheet of paper and conta

These worksheets (2 pages) are very simple. They are meant to provide practice for how standardized tests often test partitioning rectangles (to make sure students understand what is being asked).

This writing graphic organizer is tailored to narrative writing. I have included suggestions for the use of temporal words (part of the relevant second-grade standard). Terminology and preferences in writing are important. For this reason, I have included an editable version of this resource to make it easy for teachers to make any edits they desire.

This is a one-page worksheet. There are four (mostly written) paragraphs that students add a concluding sentence to.

This product includes two worksheets where students turn sentence fragments into complete sentences.

This is a worksheet (1 page) for students to practice filling in missing parts of relatively complex patterns.

This document contains 60 skip counting worksheets (counting by 100s, 10s, 5s, 2s, 1s). Skip counting by 1s and 2s are not Common Core standards, but both are helpful and almost certainly worth teaching (including crossing into new 100s). For each worksheet, it tells students what they are to skip count by. This is really solid practice for second-grade standards, except that students should also practice skip counting when they are shown a pattern but are not told what the pattern is (not inclu

The two posters included are used for text-dependent writing. The posters are very similar, but one is less detailed and the other is more detailed. In my opinion, the first poster is more appropriate for 1st grade and the second poster is more appropriate for 2nd and 3rd grades. However, one good ways to use these (if it makes sense for your class), regardless of the grade, might be to teach using the simpler poster and then to transition to the more detailed poster. Also included is a simple g

This includes (1) a poster outlining basic paragraph writing expectations, and (2) a graphic organizer reflecting those expectations. Both are simple -- nothing fancy, easy to pick-up and utilize. Considering that different teachers use different terminology for writing (and this terminology is important), I have included editable versions of each resource to allow for easy customization. These are appropriate for most types of writing, but are not ideal for narrative writing.

This is a poster, and corresponding graphic organizer, that teaches paragraph structure. This works for most types of writing (not narrative).

Includes (1) 32 task cards, (2) a response sheet, and (3) an answer keys. All task cards have answers between 50 and 99 cents.
