Tutoring Tuesdays - October 10th, 2017

We moved tutoring to Wednesdays which gives me even more time to get this blog post up. Check out the fun games I did with the superstar 2nd grader that I tutor.

The first thing I did was review before, after, and between numbers to 120 using my Bats Before, After, and Between Numbers Task Cards. I put them with the Bats game board that goes with my Bats Sight Word Race game. Land on an owl go back to start as it eats the bat but land on a bat you get to go again. These cards can also be used to play Scoot, Quiz, Quiz Trade, etc. They come with a recording sheet and answer key. Click on the picture to grab the task cards (without the game board).

Next we worked on ordering numbers to 1,000 least to greatest, but they can also be used greatest to least. We used my Fall Greatest or Least to 1,000 Task Cards and the game board that goes with it. The game board has spots that tell children to go back to start or go again. Click on the picture to grab the task cards with the game board.

We ended tutoring with my 3 Digit Addition Regrouping Task Cards and put it with my Spider game board which can be found on my Spider Sight Word Fluency Phrases Race teaching resource. Children who land on a spider have to go back to start. These cards are great for Scoot. A recording sheet and answer key are included. There is enough room to actually write on the cards. I always give her a dry erase marker and have her solve it right on the card. Click on the picture to grab the task cards (without the game board).

Tutoring Tuesdays - June 6th, 2017

I had another great day of tutoring the incoming 2nd grader last Thursday. She is always such a bundle of fun!

We started out working on 2 digit subtraction without regrouping. We used my 2 Digit Subtraction Without Regrouping Zoo Task Cards with the zoo game board that is included with the task cards. When students land on snake they go back to start, but if they land on a palm tree they get to go again. I let her write on the cards with a dry erase marker.

We finished up the tutoring session with my new 3 Digit Addition Regrouping Fidget Spinner Task Cards. She got to use her new Fidget Spinner that she got last week. If a player lands on the fidget spinner they get to spin it. She absolutely loved that idea! If you don't have a fidget spinner handy you can just let them go again. I let her do both to add to the fun. The cards work well if laminated students can write on them.

Tutoring Tuesdays - May 30th, 2017

I hope each of you are on summer vacation if not I know those of you in the united states are getting close!

Last week in tutoring we worked more on 3 digit addition regrouping. I used my Hot Air Balloon 3 Digit Addition Regrouping Task Cards. There is enough room for her to write on the cards to come up with the answers. I put it with the hot air balloon game board that comes with this product. You can use dice or the spinner that is included. We used the spinner. If a student lands on the hot air balloon they get to go again. She did a great job! Then I gave her a worksheet with just 9 questions on it and she got 8 correct! I will have the worksheets available in my store at some point.

Next we worked on addition and subtraction 3 number equations. She worked on this in school and even has a few each time on timed one minute test. These Monster Addition and Subtraction 3 Number Equations Task Cards made reviewing this skill fun. She asked where to put the answer and then she suggested in the monsters mouth! Children have to watch out for the monster as it will chase them back to start! So much!

Tutoring Tuesdays - May 23rd, 2017

For some of you this is your last full week before you are off for the summer. Enjoy your wonderful kiddos!

Last Thursday, the little one I tutor had her last day of school so she's already out for the summer. Lucky her! We started off working on reviewing first grade skills using more of my 1st Grade Review Task Cards. We worked on identifying the one's place, counting coins, skip counting by 3's, telling time to the 5 minutes, adding 2 numbers without regrouping, adding 3 numbers without regrouping, telling what number comes next, adding 2 digit plus 1 digit with regrouping, identifying a fraction by shading in the part, fractions of a group, adding 2 digit plus 2 digit with regrouping, and 3 number equations! I put the cards as always with a fun game board. The game board does not come with these task cards. The game board can be found in my Primary Reading and Math Games Bundle with sight word cards.

Then we worked on 3 digit plus 3 digit regrouping. Yes she started learning that at the end of first grade! Keep in mind she is private school. She did very well only missing a couple of problems. We used my Camping 3 Digit Addition Regrouping Task Cards that comes with a fun game board. If you land on shelter you get to go again, but watch out for the bears and raccoons they will chase you back to start!

When is your last day of school? Let me know in the comments!
