Word Work Instruction Sheet for Daily 5 FREEBIE!

This is something I have posted before, but I revamped it a little! This is the student instruction sheet that I use in my Rainbow Write tub. The kids LOVE this center and it is so simple! :) I do have different lists for each of my reading groups, but they just keep the list in their book box and take it to this center with them!

Please use this if you can! Get over to TpT and DOWNLOAD this FREEBIE!

Revised Work on Writing Reminders for Daily 5 (FREEBIE)

I'm on FIRE tonight! :) I have uploaded a revised Work on Writing document (without my name on it this time)! This is something I use in my classroom to provide my kids with some extra support during Work on Writing time. They cut their sheet in half and glued one part in the front cover of their Work on Writing Notebook and one part in the back cover. The kiddos sometimes just need a little reminder to get their creative juices flowing! I also wanted them to do some kind of reviewing and editing of their writing, so the checklist provides them with just a few things to go back and think about. Hope you can use this to support your Daily 5!

New TpT Products... Daily 5 Math Groups, too! AND a FREEBIE!

Today was the first day that my class really met in Daily Math Groups. We have been practicing procedures and routines and learning expectations for a while. (Just like with Daily 5.) Because we have implemented and practiced Daily 5 in reading, it was pretty simple for my kids to transfer what they have learned in reading to math. I met with each group today, each group completed Math with Someone and Math by Myself. The kids were FANTASTIC! I am working on uploading some of the games and activities I use!!! I will also upload a picture of how we organize our math group schedule!

Here is my lesson plan template I use to plan for Daily Math Groups. FREEBIE

We also have all 4 Place Value Packs available at TpT! 2.NBT.1, 2.NBT.2, 2.NBT.3, and 2.NBT.4 are all ready for you to use. We will work on Addition and Subtraction next! (YAY!)

Daily 5 Lesson Plan FREEBIE... and some thoughts about MATH!

I just uploaded a new FREEBIE at TpT! It's just a simple lesson plan template that I use to stay organize and sane while I teach my small groups during Daily 5. Grab it HERE!

 

Here's a preview!

Also... I'm in the process of getting some Daily Math centers and group up and running in my classroom. I only have 3 centers: Math by Myself, Math with Someone, and Teacher Group. Is any one doing any Daily 5-ish math in their classrooms? I'd LOVE to hear! :)

2.NBT.4

So, 2.NBT.4 is up and ready over at TpT! Check it out here: CLICKITY CLICK!

I have used all of these documents in my own classroom and they truly help me teach the Common Core Standards better. They also make it very easy for me to see which students have mastered that standard and are ready to go on, and which students need more support. They are TRIED AND TRUE!!! :)

Stay tuned for more!

Common Core FREEBIE!!!

Well... our first product is finally up in TPT! We are so very proud of it! :) We created a collection of materials to help you teach the second grade math standard 2.NBT.3. There is a break down of what the standard actually means, a summary of what students were expected to know/do in the grade before as well as what they will be expected of in the next grade. There are journal prompts, exit slips, activity ideas, and a pre/post assessment. Hope you find this useful! There is MUCH more coming!!!  Click to GRAB it!

Here's a little preview! 

We would LOVE to know what you need next! We are in the process of uploading packets for 2.NBT.1, 2.NBT.2, and 2.NBT.4! Please leave us some feedback and all of your suggestions of what to come next or how to make this better! We want to hear from you!!!
