Tutoring Tuesdays - August 21st, 2018

Happy Tuesday! Many more of you have started back to school with your wonderful students. I wish you a great year. Today is my brother's birthday. Happy Birthday to him!

Last Monday, I started out tutoring working on comparing numbers to the ten thousand and hundred thousands place using my Comparing Numbers to the Millions Task Cards. If you laminate them as I did the students can write on the cards with a dry erase marker! It does include a recording sheet and answer key for those that want to hold their students accountable.

Next, we reviewed division by using my Apple Division Race game. We worked on dividing by 2, 3, 4, and 5. If the student lands on a worm they have to go back to start because who likes eating worms? haha 

We finished tutoring working more on elapsed time.

Happy New Year 2016!

Happy New Year everyone!  I spent the past year tutoring students, making tons of new products (415 are in my TPT store), working for The Learning Station, and spending a lot of time with  my 85 year old Grandparents (watching Detroit Tiger and Orlando Magic games and playing cards with them and their elderly friends).

To celebrate the new year as I have the past two years, I am placing my top 10 products on sale again!  This year the sale will be $1.15 instead of the usual $1.  The reason is TPT charges us sellers a .15 cent transaction if you don't fill your cart with at least $3 worth so I take a hit each time that happens.  These products I am putting on sale typically cost between $2 and $6 so you are getting an amazing deal!  Most of my top 10 are still the same as last year, but the order has changed a little and a different product did jump into the top 10 at number 9! When I wake up on January 2nd, the price will go back to full price.

Have you purchased any of these before and used them with your students? If so how did they work out? I'm always looking to improve!  Suggestions for the new year feel free to let me know. Comprehension is pretty much a no go as I find it difficult to write on a specific grade level.

Happy New Year!!!

Happy New Year everyone!  I for one am glad last year is over as it didn't end too well when I didn't get rehired for my teaching job due to not enough space for me and I just dealt with a big plumbing issue, which discovered a mold issue. :(

However, on a more positive note, I gained many new friends from around the world thanks to my teaching blog, Facebook page, teaching stores, etc.  Thank you to each and everyone of you for your support.  Don't forget to check out Facebook all day today for Flash Freebies and Always Free products from me and some of my friends!  I also blessed to work part time for The Learning Station.  They believe in me, appreciate all of my help, and have truly been the best bosses I've ever had!  I feel very blessed.

Today, I have put the following products on sale for just $1.  Did I say $1?  Yup, I sure did!!!  I did this last year and somebody bought all 10 of them!  Let's see if anyone makes the plunge this year.  You won't see them at this price again until maybe next year!  You will also notice I'm redoing my covers!!!  I hope you like them!  They will stay at this price until I wake up on Friday!!!

Common Core Products!

As a reminder my TPT products will be on sale for 20% off and another 10% off if you enter the code on the picture at checkout for back to school. 

I thought I would highlight some of my newest products that I am very proud of.  This is a chance for you to get them at a super price!  This first one is my Patriotic Owl themed 4th grade Common Core Place Value games!  The numbers go up to 1 million so it is also perfect for 5th grade teachers to use as a review at the beginning of the year or for 5th and 6th grade struggling students.  If you teach younger grades check out my Bear themed ones in my TPT store that go with the 1st and 2nd grade standards for place value!

The next one is my Common Core Essential Questions.  These are for almost all of the Language Arts/Reading Strands for 2nd grade.  Many of the standards I came up with more than one question!

The next product I'd like to highlight is my latest product, which is I Can cards for 2nd Grade to go with the Common Core Standards.  There are cards for all strands and some have more than one card since some of the standards have many parts to them!

The next one I'd like to highlight is my Kindergarten Bear themed Math and Literacy centers!  There are addition, subtraction, letter, sight words, and more!  Check it out here:

Finally, one of my most popular products happens to be my I Have Who Has CVC games.  Five different games for each short vowel using real and nonsense words!  Perfect for first grade and end of Kindergarten. 

Thank you for checking out my products.  You may want to put these on your wish list for tomorrow to make it easier for you the day of the sale!  Also, don't forget to leave positive feedback and a nice rating.  You get free points to be used for other TPT products!  You can't beat taking a minute to leave a nice comment to get those points.  I appreciate the awesome feedback from all of you!  It puts a smile on my face!
