The Bryar Patch

"I Can" statements and standards posters: The resource includes "I Can" statements with pictures as well as the updated (2015-2016) Georgia Standards of Excellence for kindergarten math. Just print, cut, laminate, and post these standards and "I Can" statements in your classroom to show what learning is happening! Every "I Can" statement and standard is on a separate page and they are color coded by domain.

"I Can" statements and standards posters: The resource includes "I Can" statements with pictures as well as the updated (2015-2016) Georgia Standards of Excellence for kindergarten ELA. Just print, cut (just the "I Can" statements), laminate, and post these standards and "I Can" statements in your classroom to show what learning is happening! Each "I Can" statement and standard is a separate page.

The resource is composed of posters for the Georgia Standards for kindergarten social studies, I Can Statements to go along with each standard, as well as essential questions. They are color coded to match the domain and have pictures to go along with the standard. They can be printed and laminated or just hung on the board. Each standard, I Can Statement, and EQ has its own page.

The resource goes along with the kindergarten science standards in Georgia and is composed of posters where each standard has it's own page. It also has I Can Statements to go along with every science standard. These are also 1 per page. These posters (with pictures on each page) can be printed and laminated so you can use them year after year. Then the resource also has essential questions that can be hung on the board as you teach a new concept. The EQs are the only pages that do not have pict

Here at the Bryar Patch, I believe an explanation is just as important as the solution to a math problem. If a person can explain how to do a problem or why they do a problem a certain method, I believe they grasp the concept. In the resource, the students can answer questions and prompts from different units from their 6th grade curriculum. There are ten different prompts where they are asked to respond and explain their answers. Sample explanations and solutions to the problems are also provid

Here at The Bryar Patch, I value students being able to explain what they are learning. I believe that if students can speak or explain about the math they are learning, then they truly understand. The resource includes 152 journal prompts, constructed response questions, and other journal question starters for all 6th grade math topics. The questions are organized by unit and then I've included some questions for the beginning of the year and question starters/activities for you to use within a

Students will review how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals as well as how to divide fractions and find the greatest common factor and least common multiple in this MATHO game. MATHO is like Bingo, but the students will solve problems to get five in a row. The resource has directions including four different ways to play, 26 questions, a teacher answer key, 6 different versions of the playing card, and blank playing cards. Students will have fun reviewing their NS standards.

Here at the Bryar Patch, I feel it is important to start the year off with teaching students the expected rules and procedures. These posters can be printed (in B&W or color), cut out, laminated, and hung in the classroom to remind the students of the rules through the year. The rules come two per page with graphics and then there are three pages with a list of all the rules if space is limited. They could be used at the beginning of the year to teach the rules as well. Groups of students could

Here on the Bryar Patch, I value getting to know the students right from the start. I also place value in students learning about each other because they will be a community all year long. Learning names is only the start though. This resource is filled with many different get to know you games and activities to do with your students the first week of school. Whether you teach all subjects or just one subject, the activities are universal. Directions are included for each activity. Some of the

Having students and administrators know what standards are covered by the topic is important. This resource holds all the standards for 1st grade math. Each standard or element has it's own page and a graphic to go along with the topic.

In this match game, students will try to find two expressions that are equivalent. Included in the resource are 8 different sets of expression cards, a blank set so students can make up their own, as well as teacher directions. The original way they are laid out on the page has the equivalent expressions next to its match, but once they are cut up and put into bags they will be mixed up. For you to have an answer key, make sure you save a copy of the full sheet for each of the sets if you want t

This resource goes along with the Georgia Standards of Excellence for kindergarten math and goes along with the "I Can Statements" also in the store. The questions match the color codes of the domains and can be printed and posted in your room. Each essential question is 1 page.

Here at the Bryar Patch, I know bringing real life examples and engaging activities into the classroom are important. In this resource there are a few activities that the students can do to show their mastery of operations with decimals. There are two different "Checking it Out" sheets where the students will perform addition and subtraction problems (sometimes multiplication before adding or subtracting) as they keep up with their money on the balance sheet. Next, the students have a price shee

This resource goes along with the Georgia Standards of Excellence for kindergarten ELA. They follow the domains/strands and are color-coded based on the domains as well. If you already purchased the standards posters/I can statements from me, these coordinate with those. Each standard is addressed in a question format so students know what they will be learning for the day. There is one EQ per page.

The foundations are pivotal in math. It's vital students understand how to order numbers and read/write/verbalize numbers. This resource, designed for 1st graders, allows students to practice counting individually, with a partner, in small groups, in a center with a teacher, as well as at home. In one activity the students practice counting forward from a given number. In another one, they have to place the numbers in numerical order. There is also a resource with stations so they can also be di

The resource is an activity where students get to participate in the data collection and the data calculation as they find their average speed at different distances. The activity is one that you can set up inside or outside and includes directions, activity sheets with tables to record data, reflection questions, an extension activity, a mini-lesson/review, and exit tickets. All you need to have are stopwatches/phones, measuring tape, chalk or tape/markers, and students!

Here at the Bryar Patch, I value interaction amongst students. In this resource, there are activities where students can ask their classmates different questions. The students will practice collecting and reading data. Some of the activities can be done as a whole group, as individuals, and/or as small groups. The activities line up with the 1st grade math standards about data and can be used through the year, but can also be used in a kindergarten or 2nd grade class. Some of the pages do have a
