Addition and Subtraction Dominoes

Another Teachers Pay Teachers Update
I finally posted my last stock item: Addition and Subtraction Fact Family Dominoes

I made the game for facts 0-10, 11-15, and 16-20 as well as a bundle selling all of the games together. This would be great for centers or fast finishers!

Before starting on Teachers Pay Teachers, I spent several weeks making the products to start off and now I can go back to my ideas for posts. The trouble is, where to start now?

Baby A
I'll have to see if I can find a picture later, but my little girl just turned 8 months and is teething up a storm! Hopefully soon she will be a bit more mobile.

Multiplication and Division Dominoes

Dominoes!
I used to love this game growing up. We would play for Family Home Evening a lot. It got pretty competitive. I saw a version of this for homophones and got the idea to make them for math facts.

The Fact Family Dominoes are my free sample with just a few of the multiplication facts. The Multiplication and Division Fact Family Dominoes include both multiplication and division facts for students to practice. These games would be great for centers, fast finishers, or anything else you may think of!

Coming Soon:

I have three sets of these coming: Facts 1-10, Facts 11-15, and Facts 16-20. I have some editing to finish and then over to my husband for the quality review!

November No Prep Journal Prompts: Three Things Thursday

1. November Journal Prompts
My next product that will be added to Teachers Pay Teachers: November Journal Prompts!

When I have students write, I've found that it comes in handy to have extra options for prompts for them to choose from. In this packet, there are 2 prompts for each day in November, along with bonus prompts in case more are needed. On each page, there is also space for a picture to be drawn to accompany the writing.

If you shop at Walmart, this app is very helpful. Based on your location, it will look up deals based on what you add to your list. Then take it to check out and the cashier will price match for you. To make things go faster, we organize our cart based on whether or not we have a deal on that item. That way you aren't going back and forth in the line. 

3. Baby A

So our daughter is almost 8 months and is a rolling tease. She gets almost completely rolled over from back to stomach, but then rolls back over. Last night, I found her sleeping peacefully on her stomach. Here's hoping she'll roll over while she is awake!

What's going on: Addition and Subtraction Task Cards

Teachers Pay Teachers
Within the next few days, I plan on starting a Teachers Pay Teachers store. My first items:

                                    

I've used math task cards for test reviews, with substitutes, for fast finishers, and more. One of my students' favorite ways of using the task cards was to play Musical Task Cards.
Directions:
1) Set out the task cards all over the room. Each student needs a piece of paper and a pencil.
2) Everyone starts out standing by a task card. Once the music starts, students must move around the room until the music stops.
3)  When the music stops, students must find a task card and solve the problem on it before the music starts again.
4)  As soon as you are ready or the majority of students are done, start the music again and have the students start moving even if they haven't finished solving the problem.
5)  Repeat until everyone gets a chance to solve every problem. Review the solutions as a class.

Halloween

At church, I work with the girls age 12-18. For our Tuesday night activity (mutual), we started making Halloween themed wreaths to give to girls who haven't been able to come very often.

I'm excited to see how they turn out. Several of the young women (what girls ages 12-18 are called) made extras so they could take one too. Happy to say it was a successful part one!
