Pizza Fractions. The easiest way to explain fractions is with pizza. The students cut out the toppings and add them to their pizza. Then they write how many are on their pizza out of how many were in the bunch (on the sheet). They glue it on their pizza and color their pizza. You can cut out the pizza and put it on construction paper. An easy, quick, and fun assessment tool. There is a questions page (not shown) to assess their knowledge. (ex. "I have _______ (a fraction) mushrooms on my pizza.)
These cards are great to print, cut, and laminate for centers on compare on contrast. The students will turn the cards over (face down) and pick two from the stack. Then, they can compare and contrast the two they picked. Keeps them busy while learning the compare and contrast skill.
This is great for centers. I print these out, cut them down the middle/across, and then laminate them. The definitions are presented the way the book has them AND also the way the weekly test has them.
This printable can be used for the holidays to compare and contrast Thanksgiving to Christmas. Older students may use harder concepts such as, "we are off of school on both those days", while younger students may use concepts such as, "we eat with our families on both those days".
