Cyber Monday Prep

By Brittany Washburn

Grades K-8 Technology Integration

What teacher wants to spend the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas break lesson planning meaningful, engaging activities? We want to sit back and just make it to break without going gray.

This year, I want to help with that goal. These are my favorite low-prep technology-integrated activities that will impress your administrators without causing you one bit of stress.

This complete unit is great for upper elementary students. Each concept has an instructional video and foldable activity for an interactive notebook. The best part is that by the time your students have had all 14 lessons, they will be able to create the most incredible PowerPoint presentations without any of your help. Imagine how impressed their classroom teachers will be if you send them back with the ability to make a professional presentation without asking for help along the way!

Every student needs research skills. This 7 lesson unit provides them with all of the steps for responsible and effective online research and all of the work is done for you (the teacher). Simply load the Microsoft Word files to a password-protected page on your class website and then step back and watch the learning unfold. With right-there questions from the linked learning modules, your students can complete all 7 lessons independently. End the 7 weeks of lessons with a research project and I guarantee it will be the easiest 2 months of classes ever! (This assumes you see your students once a week like me- timeline may vary)

For your youngest students, teach them Microsoft Word skills with these instructional videos and Word templates. It will require your students to be readers so that they can follow simple text directions. I do these lessons with late first grade or beginning 2nd graders (sometimes both, depending on the group of students and their skill retention). Also note that I have similar units for PowerPoint and Excel.

I don’t know about how it is at your school, but this time of year when the technology breaks (projectors, laptops, iPads, etc.) teachers freak out. That is why I developed units that require very little of my input. I am always being pulled out of my classroom to go fix something. When a TA or a teacher has to trade places with me, I can walk away confidently because I know my students won’t need much help. These also make great substitute plans. Last school year I had to be out for a week unexpectedly, and it was so stress-free because I just used a unit like these for each grade level.

How do you stay sane this time of year? Are you organized in your planning? Do you have the required I Can Statements for your classes? Join my stress-free teaching lifestyle. You can thank me later 😉

2nd Grade

This is my FREE Christmas Edition of Common Core Morning Work – Grade 2. It includes both English Language Arts & math. Every problem is coded with its Common Core State Standard. It has a complete answer key! This one week of CCSS morning work is great to use during the final week before winter break or any time during the holiday season! It is a sample of my yearlong units as described below:

Let your second graders’ morning work actually work for them to master essential Common Core English Language Arts and Math skills by the end of the year through continual daily review. This strategy always produced amazing results with my second graders, because they didn’t forget what they had learned.

Common Core State Standards covered include:
*ELA – W.2.5, L.2.1, L.2.2
*Math – All Grade 2 Standards as the year progresses

The Language Arts Daily Edit portion of each printable provides two sentences to be edited (using editing marks) and then rewritten correctly as edited. It is more than just a simple “Fix the Sentence” activity. The sentences are designed to practice and spiral review the ELA Common Core Standards of editing, grammar usage, capitalization, punctuation, and spelling patterns. The comprehensive daily editing increases in difficulty and becomes
second-nature over time, which helps to strengthen writing abilities in all areas. The sentences are aligned with the READING STREET reading series units, but can be used effectively with any second grade language arts program.

The Math Review portion is designed to practice and spiral review ALL Second Grade Common Core Standards in a repetitive format that increases in difficulty over time, including 5 addition and/or subtraction facts on every page.

FREE MATH LESSON – “Shopping for Holiday Decorations: Money Skills (autism; special education)”

by Autism Classroom News-Christine

2nd – 12th Grade

For a busy time of year, this is an easy print-and-go set of holiday math / shopping activities for students working on money skills in elementary school or life skills classes. Put the sales flyers in a page protector and either cut out the task cards for single use or put them in a photo album or laminate for re-use.

This freebie is a sneak peek of of my Economics of Shopping Series

The freebie consists of three sales flyers for holiday decorations, 8 task cards for writing in prices, and 2 print and go worksheets to answer questions about the flyer. The sales flyers are the same with 3 different levels of pricing. The worksheets are identical but one has a word bank to assist students. The worksheet with the word bank will only work with the stores called “Holly’s Decorations Sale.” It will not work for the third sheet because the Christmas tree price is different. The words from the bank could be cut out and pasted in the answer section, or laminated and attached with Velcro for re-use.

Santa and his friend the penguin are lost! Can you help them get back to Rudolph and the igloo?

Children practice letter identification and fine motor skills as they find capital and lower case letters in the maze. This little activity focuses on the letters S and P and makes a cute addition to your literacy centers during the Holidays. Print and laminate the sheets and allow children to complete the trail through the maze using erasable whiteboard markers or print out one for each child and have them colour in each square that has the correct letter in it.

Includes “S is for Santa” and “P is for Penguin” cards, 6 mazes and solutions.

So that being said, here is a little freebie I have put together for you. You may want to give it out to your little ones as a holiday gift or just use it in the classroom, however you choose to use it, I know your kiddos will have fun either way.
