It's my birthday gift to YOU!!!!Listen, we all LOVE (can you hear the sarcasm in my voice) the oodles and oodles of overly frosted cupcakes we get when it's one of our kiddos birthdays. They're giving us a gift from the heart on their birthday. Awwwww . . . . Believe me, if I could, I'd send you one from me with gobs and gobs of frosting that would stain your teeth for month and put you into a sugar high to bad it would take a week to come down. But since no one has ... VIEW POST
A Freebie For You On My Birthday!!!!
Daily 5 BABY!!!!
That's right. It's all kindergarten and all Daily 5 and it's coming to you at the end the month by means of a book study. I have been reading and studying up on Daily 5 with my kindergarten neighbor, Kerri, for the last year. But you know, kindergarten is just such a different beast. So when there started to be talk about a book study for D5, I knew that I wanted in on it, but I also knew that kindergarten held some special challenges that we might not find in other ... VIEW POST
Differentiated Math Stations . . . and a Freebie
Hands down, my favorite small group activities to happen in my class are math stations. They just run so smoothly, students are so engaged and to be honest, it's just plain fun. While I've used Debbie Diller's book, Math Work Stations to get me started, of course, I've had to tweak it a bit here and there to fit my own classroom. I use a base of nine different stations which students rotate through twice before I typically change them. Even ... VIEW POST
Look what I found . . . Differentiated Reading Done For You and a FREEBIE!
The one thing I always hear when people start considering the process of differentiating their instruction is that they just don't have the time and they don't know where to start. I know, believe me, I get it. Tiering, compacting, flexible grouping, learning centers . . . it all takes time. If it didn't, everyone would be doing it and we wouldn't be having this conversation.I'm always on the lookout for products that can help me out and free up some of my time by ... VIEW POST
Who doesn’t love a differentiated freebie for kinesthetic learners AND a giveaway?
My kinders have been begging me for a new 'dino' themed write the room activity to I had to whip something up this evening to appease before we completely finish up our unit this week. Of course, I LOVE these activities because the allow me to differentiate in response to the learning profile of my kinesthetic mover and shakers. I also try to make sure I tier them for those students who need a little extra time to complete the task versus those who are writing like lightening. ... VIEW POST
Stomping Out Subtraction and A Differentiated Freebie That Meets Common Core
A while back when I first started this blog, I put out a freebie and instructions on how to make a floor-sized 100's chart/numberline. It's a great resource and I'm not sure how many of you were able to actually make one, but I use mine ALL THE TIME. I can't imagine how I could engage my kinesthetic learners more than by using this ONE tool. Yes, it takes up some room, but luckily we are in a school that encourages creative use of space. My students are well ... VIEW POST
