Tutoring Tuesdays - October 9th, 2018

Happy Tuesday! I hope you are all enjoying the fall weather. We have a Tropical Storm in the Gulf that is supposed to turn into a hurricane. Thankfully so far we aren't in the path of it, but that could change. Prayers for those in North Florida and those who are in the path of this hurricane.

I started out tutoring with the 3rd grader with counting coins with the half dollar since she had to learn to recognize it in school. We used my Counting Coins with Half Dollars Task Cards. She did an incredible job! It comes with 24 task cards, a recording sheet, and answer key.

Next we reviewed subtracting across zeroes with my Squirrels Subtracting Across Zeroes Task Cards. These have 3 or 4 zeroes in each problem. She did a great job, not missing a single equation! There are 24 task cards in color and black and white. There is also an answer key and recording sheet.

We finished tutoring practicing dividing with remainders and checking division. I couldn't find my cards that I thought I brought. Later I did find it in my bag. So I wrote problems on the white board and had her do some on there. We will work more on this during this week's tutoring session. Check back on my blog next Tuesday to see it.

Tutoring Tuesdays - August 28th, 2018

Happy Tuesday! Those who aren't back to teaching yet probably have about a week left if you are in the United States. Rest up and then have a terrific school year with your students!

I'm now tutoring on Tuesdays, but I will be sharing what I did the past Tuesday. Last week, we worked on 5 digit subtraction regrouping with my Wild West 5 Digit Subtraction Regrouping Task Cards. There are 24 task cards in both color and black and white. It includes a recording sheet and answer key. I always put it with a game board even though the set of cards I sell don't come with a game board. It is just another way to use the cards. I do have cowboy games that include a game board in my store.

We next worked on elapsed time again, but we also practiced drawing hands on a clock to the hour and half an hour. I created a digital and analog clock and laminated it so she could write on it with a dry erase marker. The clocks came from Graphics From The Pond.

We finished tutoring practicing dividing by 2, 3, 4, and 5 using my School Supplies Division Race. This game includes facts to 12 (I just pulled the 2's - 5's). Children who land on any of the school supplies get to go again. This game does come with a game board!
