Secret Valentine, Super Numbers, and a FREEBIE

It's been quite a crazy last couple of weeks with all the snow days that we've had.  I'm enjoying it though because it's given me time to finish some projects that I've been working on.  

My valentine literacy pack, "Secret Valentine," is now available at my TPT store.  Click on any of the pictures below to preview the 10 literacy activities that are included. 

We will be starting a new math unit on 2-digit numbers, place value to 120, 10 more/10 less, and comparing numbers.  My first grade team worked together to develop a unit sequence that we think is developmentally appropriate for our students.  The units that we create contain essential questions, unit sequence, and tons of resources.  You can click HERE to see what our unit looks like.  

My boys LOVE batman, so they inspired me to do a Super Hero themed MEGA PACK to go our next math unit.  This math pack contains 18 math games ranging from place value, hundreds chart, addition/subtraction, word problems, and comparing numbers.  You will find everything you need to teach 2-digit numbers.  Click HERE to preview the entire 107 page download of Super Numbers.  It contains games geared toward both boys AND girls!  

 You can download the Super Stories mini book from this unit for FREE by clicking HERE.  You students will enjoy these super hero themed story problems while practicing hopping on the number line to add by 10's.

Enjoy your weekend everyone!  I know I will...dinner date with my hubby tonight!! :-)

RECYCLE!! Another Math Fact Fluency Game

Well, after practicing some math fluency today with the games that I had created last week, I realized that my students needed something more challenging.  I have created RECYCLE!! to help meet the needs of my students.    

This download is a recycling themed addition fact game for harder addition facts. Students will practice known strategies to solve addition facts to 20.  I will probably be creating another one later in the week with even harder math facts.  My kiddos really enjoy using the hundreds chart to find their answers! 

The Common Core Standard addressed in this games is:
1.OA.6 - Add and Subtract within 20, demonstrating fluency for addition and
subtraction within 10.

I hope you all had a wonderful Monday!!  Four more days to go until our Spring Break!!  C'mon y'all, we can do!!  I think I can...I think I can!!  lol!
