Freebie Fridays - August 26th, 2016

Happy Friday! Those not back to teaching yet are on your way back soon! Enjoy what is left of your break.

Today's freebie is a brand new one!!! It is actually my 600th teaching product! WOW!!! Did you know over 60 are FREE???

This is a fun Place Value to 120 game. Children tell how many the base ten blocks represent and then roll a die (dice) and move that many spaces on the game board. Watch out for the worm because they taste yucky and will send them back to start! The task cards can also be used to play the game "Scoot", "Numbered Heads Together", "Quiz, Quiz Trade" or any other cooperative group activity. They can also be used at a center, small group, whole group, journals, for homework, early finishers, etc. Click the picture to grab it for free and please be kind by leaving me positive feedback as it cost me money and time to make this for you. Be sure to follow my store so you know when new freebies come out and check out my other Place Value materials!

Check out some fun freebies from myself and friends!

Freebie Fridays - August 5th, 2016

Happy Friday! Some of you have started back to teaching already and I hope you are having a blast with the kids!

Today's freebie is one I created a few years ago and used in Kindergarten the first week. ABC Race children pick a card and name the capital letter. Then roll one die (dice) and move that many spaces on the game board. Very simple and a lot of fun! I had 4 groups of 4 playing it. Please leave positive feedback if you download it. Remember it cost money to create freebies for you and I now have 60!!!

Fall Freebie Linky Party

My linky parties have been very popular in the past.  In this linky party you will find products that have to do with the Fall/Autumn season that are FREE forever!  The fall freebies may also include fall holidays such as Columbus Day, Halloween, and Thanksgiving.

Credit for the adorable picture goes to Whimsy Workshop Teaching, visit her blog by clicking on the picture below!

Those that make teaching products may link up anything that is Fall related only if you promise the product will remain free forever.  Products may be from Teachers Notebook, Teachers Pay Teachers, or anywhere else.  No deleting the product and adding a price to the freebie.  I would also love it if you would share this blog post by either using the picture created on your own blog and linking back to this post or sharing this all over Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, G+.

Showdown - Cooperative Group

I guess the past week was a busy one for me as I haven't blogged in a week.  I thought I would share a fun cooperative group activity that will help with team building and also can be used to check for mastery of skills or as a review for a test or quiz.  This fun activity is called Showdown!  It is a Kagan Cooperative Group activity.

Materials needed:
A stack of questions - Task Cards work perfectly for this!
Either paper and pencils or my favorite dry erase board and dry erasers

1. The teacher picks someone to be the captain of each group.  This person turns the cards face down and gives each student the materials.

2. The Showdown captain turns one card face up while everyone in the group answers the question.  As soon as each student answers the question they turn over there piece of paper or dry erase board.

3. When the teacher gives the Showdown signal every team member turns their paper or dry erase board over to reveal their answers.  If everyone is correct the team gets 5 team points.  If not everyone coaches each other to get the correct answer.  The team then gets 1 point.

4. Team members celebrate!

5. The student to the captain's left is the Showdown Captain for the next round.

6. Repeat the steps starting at step 2.
