FREE MATH LESSON – “SMART Board Tooth Tally”

by Downeast Teach
Pre-Kindergarten – 3rd Grade

This cute little Tooth Tally SMART Board file is a fun way to bring some authentic data into your classroom. It is part of my SmartBoard Math Calendar for Grades 1-3 set. When students lose a tooth, they drag an infinitely cloned tooth to either the boys’ or girls’ side of the page and update the total. This provides opportunities all month long for comparing teeth lost; boys vs. girls. The second page in the file is a place to record monthly totals, which could then be analyzed and graphed. The third page where you can make a graph, if desired. It is a blank template so you can make a variety of graphs. I cloned the teeth on this page in case you want to make a pictograph with each tooth representing a certain number of teeth lost.

If you enjoy this freebie, I would love feedback! Also, check out the complete calendar math file in my TPT store, as well as my other SMART Board products.

Thanks!

FREE MATH LESSON – “Free! Number Searches – Addition Facts”

by Debbie Bryant
1st – 3rd Grade

Number Searches!

Directions:
Cut apart the number searches so each student gets one-fourth of the page.

Choose a number you want students to find addends for. Write this number in the blank center box. Students can find addends vertically, horizontally or diagonally. (I usually keep the middle number between 6 and 20.)

You can give each student a different number search (to discourage copying) OR you can give each student the same number search to encourage collaboration (or competition!)

You can also give different students different numbers in the blank middle box to meet their developmental level.

Blank sheet, examples of student work and directions included.

FREE MATH LESSON – “Penny Identification”

by KinderjackJackie
Pre-Kindergarten – 1st Grade

This worksheet is part of my new activity package Money Identification. If you teaching young children how to identify money and want large visuals this package is for you. Money is a somewhat difficult task for young children to identify. For a young child, all coins seemingly look alike and are hard to identify and from their perspective a coin is quite small. The Federal Reserve has changed the appearance of coins numerous times on the front and back.
