1-2-3 come Enjoy Winter Wonderland With Me!

Oh my!  It's  really snowing hard, and the winter wonderland swirling outside my office window is spectacular!  We are supposed to get 17 inches! Woo hoo!  As long as it's winter it might as well snow.  There's always the added excitement of a snow day right? So bring it on!

Making templates for my daily tabletop lessons, was a real time saver for me.  The repetition empowered my Y5's, as they were familiar with the format and could get right down to business, without wasting time with a lot of directions.  To keep things fresh and interesting, I simply changed the clip art.

The different clip art (snowmen, snowflakes, mittens, Martin Luther King, penguins, New Years etc.) added variety.

Print, laminate and trim the number cards 1-120.  Toss them into a basket.  Have a child choose one, as the number students will use to fill in their worksheet with.  When kiddo's are done, they can exchange their paper with another child to correct.  (Saves you time, and provides extra practice for your kiddo's.)

You can also use these for your sub folder, homework practice, something for early finishers, or assessments.  Click on the link to view/download the January Number Fun Packet.   If you'd like the Big Bundle number fun packet (105 pages!) that includes all of the months, click on the link.

This leads to a really interesting discussion, because the word "pair" is used for a pair of pants or a pair of sunglasses, even though they are only one item. 

I enjoyed researching and making up a list of "single" item pairs, as well as a list of 38 things that come in pairs like mittens.  Challenge your students to make up their own lists. 

The packet includes a variety of skip counting by 2's worksheets, a bookmark + a certificate of praise.   Click on the link to view/download the Mitten Skp Counting Pair Packet.

1-2-3 Come Play A Game With Me!

Whenever I design a lesson I try to theme it to something that is going on during the month I'll be teaching it.

Since February is Dental Hygiene Month, a lot of teachers do lessons involving teeth. 

I thought it would be fun to design a "Tooth Time" activity, so that you could review telling time to the hour. 

It's a nice plug in for your other dental activities, as it's always time to remember to brush your teeth.

dental hygiene activities, telling time games, free common core lessons for first grade, telling time to the hour lessons, tooth activities, tooth games, dental hygiene month activities,There are 2 different ways to play the game.

For one game, students spin the tooth clock.  Whatever time they land on, they write down the digital time on their toothbrush log. 

The first one to fill in all of the times, or has the most completed, when the timer rings, is the winner.

In the second game students practice their math skills. 

Children roll first one dice, 'til they have filled in their tooth clock from 1-6.  When they have accomplished that, they roll two dice and add them together, so they can fill in the remaining times.
