Hello & Welcome! Welcome to my blog, or for some of you, my reboot blog. I wanted to take some time in my first blog…

Six math centers that focus on double digit addition and subtraction with regrouping with recording sheets. 2 centers on equations and 4 centers focusing on story problems with and without regrouping.

Engage your students in learning about landforms by having them apply their knowledge of various landforms to create a project... LANDFORM ISLAND! Students will work alone or in groups to research 24 different landforms, draft a plan for their island, write all about their island and publish a poster of their islands. Islands will include as many landforms as possible and students will need to brainstorm different animals, plants and other features that would be located near various landforms...

4 Thanksgiving themed games that review addition and subtraction to 20 fluency. These games are great for any primary grade to help students begin to fluently solve these problems. There are 2 core games included, which have an addition version and subtraction version. The games are bump and gobble!

Writing a how to is easy with this How To Catch Santa Writing and Craft! Teach students to write step by step directions with these engaging lessons. This lesson can be taught in one day or stretched out throughout five days. Students will brainstorm ideas as a class on potential ways to catch Santa, then they will plan and write a how to piece that will be turned into an adorable flip book.

Teaching geometry has never been so much fun or so easy for you to plan! This is a 3 week geometry unit that is filled with second grade worksheets, assessments, homework and activities. There is also a pacing guide included, showing you how I would complete this unit in 3 weeks time. There are also anchor charts included for your bulletin board display, showing all the shapes and their attributes, as well as other important vocabulary words learned during this unit such as angle, side, etc..

favorite fairy tales.. The Gingerbread Man! Students will study fairy tale elements in the core story, then compare and contrast how the regular version of The Gingerbread Man is the same and is different from various fractured fairy tales. This works with ANY version of The Gingerbread Man that you might have in your library, and also includes my suggestions for various titles.
