Number to Quantity Match FREEBIE

Here's a useful MATH FREEBIE for preschool or kindergarten from Mrs. Daleo! 

My son had fun cutting out the numbers and gluing them under the correct quantity of dots. 

This set comes with 4 different number to quantity matching sheets: 0-5, 5-10, 10-15, and 15-20. They are perfect for helping students develop number sense, as well as for cutting and gluing practice.

These sheets would work well for assessment, independent practice, as a whole or small group activity, or as a math center. 

Mrs. Daleo's Teaching Tip

She created this set as a math assessment. She says to "plan your report card assessments ahead of time. Try to find as many assessments that can be done as a whole group rather than one on one. In kindergarten, one on one time is hard to come by, so any assessment that can be done by all the students at the same time is a great timesaver!"

Domino Fractions FREEBIE for Grades 2-4!

I have a useful and fun TEACHER FREEBIE to share with you today! 

Who made this fun freebie?

This freebie comes to you from Amber at TGIF Third Grade is Fun! She has been teaching third grade for the past 3 years. She says that she is "loving every aspect of it!" Amber also has experience teaching 4th-8th, which helps her better prepare her students for the upper grades.

What makes this teacher freebie useful? 

Amber says that "Teachers have to find inexpensive and durable manipulatives to use in the classroom. Dominoes are the perfect solution to introducing fractions. They are cheap, very tough, and students love the idea that they are getting to do something other than just pencil and paper work."

Students will focus on writing and drawing fractions with this practical freebie. It covers comparing fractions (CCSS 3.NF.A.3d) using dominoes. There are also 2 levels of differentiation:

1. Students will trace the domino and draw the fraction. Then, students record the digits as a fraction.
2. Students can compare one domino fraction with another.

Sheets can be printed for each student or laminated for repeated use in math centers. The set also includes a mini-poster showing students how to compare two fractions.

Amber's teacher tip for using this resource:

"Introduce fractions lessons with quick and easy manipulatives. Of course students love candy, so give each student one Skittle and have them gather with like colors. Ask quick questions such as, "What fraction of the class has red?" or "What fraction of the class does not have yellow?" By starting the lesson with these quick mini-lessons, the students get a real world idea of fractions and they will remember the concept better when you refer back to it in 3 days."

You can click on the picture above to take a look at this helpful, easy-to-create and use math activity. If you have a moment, please don't forget to leave feedback for Amber! It is always appreciated!

Here's a fun way for your students to practice telling time! Whether you prefer center activities, a game of Scoot, or card games, you have ALL THREE OPTIONS with this set!

I am using this set at home as 2 of my littles (kindergarten and first grade) learn to tell time. We played a game with the cards using the BIG CLOCK! This set also comes with little clocks. They would work well in centers or so that each child could have a clock.

Students must record the time in digital form.

2. Analog clocks to the nearest five minutes

Students must record the time in digital form.

3. Digital clocks to the hour and half-hour

Happy New Year Blog Hop--and a Winter FREEBIE!

Happy New Year! 

First of all, I want to wish you a prosperous, happy, and healthy New Year. Then, I would like to invite you to "hop" through our blogs, grabbing some FREEBIES and taking a look at our winter and New Year themed items. 

My featured item is one of my all-time favorites, the Kindergarten Math Cut-and-Glue Workbook for Winter. 

I LOVE these sets for 3 reasons:

1) This workbook (and similar sets for each season/holiday) covers ALL of the Common Core Standards for kindergarten math. So, using all of the pages lets you know that your students have practiced every CC concept! 

2) These sets help students practice their math AND fine motor skills! Plus, my littles always enjoy cutting and pasting! 

3) These are prefect for reluctant writers. Some of the pages require no writing at all! That's huge for students who struggle with writing. While writing should not be overlooked, I think it's nice to have a resource every now and again where students are not required to write in order to demonstrate their knowledge.  

Click on the picture above to find this resource on Teacher's Notebook.

CLICK HERE to see it on Teachers Pay Teachers. 

Plus, ALL OF MY RESOURCES ARE 15% OFF from January 1-4, 2015!

Here's my featured winter FREEBIE!
