2nd – 6th Grade

Here’s an easy paper management system developed by Laura Candler to deal with the problem of students forgetting to put names on their papers. When they finish their work, they slide their papers into a “paper drop,” a laminated brown envelope with a student checklist attached. At the end of the class period, pull out the papers to be sure you have everyone’s work. Then put the papers right back into the envelope to keep them together for grading later. The entire Paper Drop System system is described in this packet and includes the printables you need to make it work for you.

3 Tried & True Games to Teach Place Value & Rounding
By Kathie Yonemura of Tried and True Teaching Tools

Beginning of the year. . . I used to be so tempted to skip teaching place value because it seemed too simplistic, assuming kids knew how to read larger numbers. Plus I wanted to get on with the “real math”:multiplication and long division. WRONG! Developing number sense and place value are critical to understanding ALL math! **************************************************

The Left Angle Mystery
By Vicky Rauch of Scipi

Geometry is probably my favorite part of math to teach because it is so visual; plus, the subject lends itself to doing many hands-on activities, even with my college students. When our unit on points, lines and angles is finished, it is time for the unit test. Almost every year I ask the following question: What is a left angle? Some of the responses I have received over the years are disheartening.

5 Steps to Creative Classroom Projects

Have you ever noticed that someone else’s class has developed much more creative writing assignments, science fair projects, or fundraising strategies? Well, either that person is extremely lucky, extremely gifted in motivating his or her students, or simply using proven methods to stimulate creativity. Chances are, that person is simply familiar with the 5-Step Creativity Process.

FREE MATH LESSON – “(Not your ordinary…) Geometric Shape Bingo”

This entry was posted in 2nd Grade 3rd Grade 4th Grade 5th Grade MATH LESSONS and tagged free on August 25, 2019 by Patrice Manchola (updated on August 18, 2019)

2nd – 5th Grade

I am very excited to share the revised version of my Geometric Shapes Bingo! The concepts and vocabulary remain the same, but the game and clue cards are redesigned using Powerpoint, giving the product a more attractive, kid-friendly “face lift”!!
This is NOT your ordinary Bingo game! This set includes 10 different reproducible Bingo cards with the traditional format of 24 squares and a “free space” in the middle. Each of the squares has a word or a picture of a different polygon, including such shapes as squares, rectangles, circles, trapezoids, rhombuses, right triangles, scalene triangles, isosceles triangles, obtuse triangles, pentagons, hexagons, and octagons, There are 70 clue cards that the teacher reads and the students choose a corresponding square to cover- here is where the CHALLENGE begins! More than half of the clues can be answered correctly with more than one shape, so not only does the student have to be able to identify and classify shapes, s/he has to think strategically in order to cover the shape that increases the chances of filling an entire horizontal, vertical, or diagonal row. For example, the clue “this shape always has at least one right angle” could describe a right triangle, a square, or a rectangle, In addition to definitions using geometry vocabulary,the clues offer a variety of opportunities for higher level thinking. Knowledge of calculating perimeter and area, as well as familiarity with angle measurement are necessary to answer several of the clues.

The Common Core Standards challenge teachers to provide many opportunities for identifying, classifying, comparing, and problem solving using shapes, and this Bingo game is a good resource to use as a fun opportunity for students to practice these skills. I was very excited to stretch my own mathematical thinking as I created this game, and am enthusiastically working on other engaging and challenging lessons and activities to help our students gain a deep understanding of geometry.
This set includes
-10 colored reproducible game cards (because each clue has many possible answers, more than one student having a duplicate card isn’t a problem)
– Instructions for the traditional game, as well as several variations of the game to provide differentiation for a variety of skill and grade levels
-70 reproducible clues

The colored game cards produce a nice grayscale copy, but if you prefer blackline masters I would be happy to provide you with those free of charge.

Thank you for your interest in this game- I hope your students enjoy it and you see measurable growth in their ability to describe, identify,and classify shapes!

Kindergarten – 4th Grade

Here is a fun little pack of interactive activities that your students can complete during the first few days of school. They will help fill the void as you take care of back to school essentials such as form filling and parents.

Included in the pack are three Let’s Lace Up activity cards. The cards are really a fun way of completing the basic matching activity that we do all the time. Instead of using pencil and paper, the students use string to join the items on each column together. The string will match the answer sheet on the back if they are laced correctly. Two of the cards feature back to school pictures and words that the students will match, and the last card features back to school compound words. These are great hands on, self-checking, interactive activities for your students. There is also a direction sheet included in the download. Students will have fun with these cards during the first days of school.

The bookmark features more back to school words; after completing they can be laminated, and of course it can be a useful tool.

Welcome your students with a tasty back to school treat. Fill sandwich bags with lucky charms cereal then staple the bag topper onto the bag after cutting and folding on the line. The back of the bag topper gives an explanation of each marshmallow shape. The bag topper is made for regular sandwich bags that measure about 7 x 8. There are two versions included: “Welcome to School” and “Welcome Back to School”. I have also included a note that I place inside each bag for the students to read or to have an adult read to them. Students are always excited to receive this treat and will also have fun filling out the bar graph worksheet which can be done as a homework assignment or in class.

Thanks for downloading and I hope your class enjoys this fun pack as my class does!

This is a measurement activity that requires measuring arm span and height. It is a great activity to do as a science experiment following the scientific process.
I have included the outline and the procedure for this on the following pages. I have also included a recording sheet for the results. I have included sheets for measuring in cm and inches.

I do this activity at my student-led conferences, so I have included a recording sheet for parents as well.

Here are some more of my measurement products for you to check out.

FREE MISC. LESSON – “Smartboard Attendance/Soccer Theme”

This entry was posted in 1st Grade 2nd Grade 3rd Grade 4th Grade 5th Grade 6th Grade Kindergarten MISC. LESSONS and tagged back to school free on August 6, 2019 by Patrice Manchola (updated on August 5, 2019)

Kindergarten – 6th Grade

Students love to interact with the Smartboard! Take advantage of this with my fun soccer-themed attendance file. Once you set this up with your students’ names using the included directions, you are good to go for the rest of the year! When students enter the classroom in the morning, they drag their soccer ball to the net. You can easily tell who is absent because their soccer ball has not been moved. The important thing is to NOT save the file each day. That way it will reset with the balls back in their original positions.

I will be posting additional Smartboard files in the coming days. If you like my work, please “follow me” so you will hear about updates.

Thanks!

Kindergarten – 3rd Grade

Each ice cream cone has 3 scoops. Skip count by 3s to find the sum.

Students are asked to skip count by 3s up to groups of 10.

For more advanced students, I recommend having them write a repeated addition and/or multiplication sentence to represent each question.

If you find this helpful I would also recommend the following FREE worksheets:

Skip Counting by 2s – Cherries (FREE)

Skip Counting by 5s – Fish (FREE)

Skip Counting by 10s – Roman Numerals (FREE)

Skip Counting by 100s – Zebras (FREE)

For even more practice I suggest:

Skip Counting Packet: 2s, 3s, 5s, 10s, and 100s Printable Worksheets

Hope this helps and please leave feedback =)

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “FREE Following Directions in the 3-5 Common Core Classroom Sample”

3rd – 5th Grade

This is the sampler pack preview version. If you are ready to purchase the full year edition, click HERE.

Do you ever have issues with students who never seem to listen to the directions, even after you have given them 3 and 4 times? I know I have in the past, so I decided to do some listening skills practice activities in order to fine-tune their listening capabilities.

After giving my students a short listening task, I either graded the work (which became an eye opener for some!) or we used it as a teachable mini-lesson on what should have been done better. Sometimes I even rewarded the student who received the best score as an exemplary way to listen and follow directions. The reward usually involved a little extra computer time or maybe being the line leader for the day.

Sometimes we assume that students know how to listen and that if we give directions several times they should be able to hear, listen, and apply. Unfortunately some students need to continuously practice that skill, much like any other curriculum strategy. Following Directions in the Common Core Classroom will not only help your students to be more keenly aware of oral directions, but also help you with expected classroom routines and procedures.

The best part? The activities listed take less than 2 minutes once a week to administer! Have a group discussion after doing to activity, and you are done in under 15 minutes! Want an actual listening center activity? Use the included audio tracks so you don’t even have to be present!

The full version includes the following:

•36 weekly activities which can be done as a whole class or as a center activity, including the answer keys
•All the matching handouts are included as a full page and as a half page, in both color and in grayscale, which will make for easier printing for those that do not have access to a color printer
•All 36 weeks worth of audio files

Ready to purchase a full year’s worth of listening activities? Click HERE to get it now!

Please be reminded that the files you have are to be used by ONE classroom teacher per copyright law. I really thank you for respecting my time and work.
