There are also printable spoons or spoon game boards for Cucharas.

There are instructions and materials for ¡El Toro! and ¡Cucharas! (Spoons) for your students. After my students become familiar with both games I love providing both options and letting them choose which game they prefer to practice with.

FREE MISC. LESSON – “No Bullies Allowed Playlets”

by Class around the Corner

2nd – 6th Grade

 

no-bullies-allowed-playlets

 

I am excited to offer a product that is near and dear to my heart.
These playlets are based on true stories about kids who have affected the lives of many children and adults alike.Use a real-life situation playlet to interact with your class on some important topics!

Each playlet can be presented in a matter of minutes; its purpose is to promote discussion about relevant issues in a fun way! Playlets can be done in class, on morning announcements, at parent and community functions.

In a Playlet, 4-5 students act out a short script. When the narrator says “FREEZE!” the characters become immovable while the students discuss what’s happening. Then the actors continue until the word “FREEZE!” occurs again. Discussion question posters are included.

The teacher is the director and guides discussion during EACH FREEZE. IF discussion gets lengthy, a fun thing to say to your actors is “UNFREEZE! AT EASE!” Then they can join in the discussion too!

You will see students with a strong understanding of bullying and disabilities awareness. Listen to their new conversations.

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “Reading and Writing Suitcase”

by Jill Nieman

Pre-Kindergarten – 2nd Grade

 

reading-and-writing-suitcase

 

This is a classroom idea that is intended to promote reading and writing at home. By showcasing a child-sized suitcase or backpack that is brimming with bright, colorful and enticing literacy objects any primary aged child is sure to engage in at-home reading and writing. And we all know that children who engage in independent reading and writing activities are much more likely to become proficient readers and writers!

Take a look at my Reading and Writing Suitcase Essentials to help put this into action in your classroom!

Have you ever wanted to have those blackline masters in color? Well, this is perfectly aligned to fit not only the Algeblocks but also fits the Factor Tracks.

This would be great to run off on cardstock in color and laminate for use in small groups for those who are needing visual/kinesthetic help with factoring.
