TpT Sale

Hi everyone!  I have been busy spending time with my family this past week.  It's my most favorite time of the year, and I wanted to let everyone know that I too will be participating in the TpT Sale on Monday & Tuesday.

The sale last two days (Monday & Tuesday).  I will have all my items on sale for 20% off, and TpT will also give an additional discount if you enter code CMT12 at checkout.  All together, you will have a savings up to 28% off!  That's just awesome.  I know I am going to be stocking up and emptying out my wishlist.

Don't forget to check out my store, specifically my Christmas Multiplication Math Centers.

I did it again..

Ya'll... I know you think I'm crazy, but I am having so much fun making these.  So much, in fact, that I'm not going to be able to post every time I make a new set because you will eventually get tired of looking at my "hey I have something new for sale in my TpT store" posts.  I guess I will wait unit Fridays to post my new math centers.  Anyways.. I started this one this morning and somehow managed to get it finished.  This set includes two math centers that correlate to MCC4.OA.2, "I can multiply or divide to solve word problems that use multiplication to compare."  I am so excited to get to school tomorrow and print these off.  I have to take my sweet 9-month boy for a well check-up in the a.m so I will have to wait until after school :(  I will try to take pics so I can share them later.

This set has two centers.  Both focus on word problems (multiplication & division) that use multiplication comparisons to help solve.  The first center is a BINGO-type center where students draw a card and place a marker on the correct equation on their BINGO card.  The second center has the students writing their own comparison word problems to match given equations. I try to incorporate writing daily into my centers as well as other parts of my math workshop model.  Click on the preview below to go to my store.

As always, the first to comment with their email address will get it for free.  BTW-- it's only $2.00!  What a steal!

  

New Common Core Math Centers Series

**UPDATE** I have decided to make this first set free so you can evaluate the quality of my work.  If you like it, follow me on TpT to be updated of new sets!  Click any of the pictures below to upload this set for free!

Hi everyone!  I am feeling much better compared to my last post, but I am still under the weather which stinks because today is my birthday and I woke up feeling HOR.RI.BLE!  I started feeling a little better as the day went by, especially after my bath soak while my three year-old was watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.  Thank God for the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse... Come inside it's fun inside!  How many of you know that tune??  I think I know every word as well as the hotdog dance!  lol  I just love my sweet Hunter Blaine.  He and his little brother, Hudson, are the light of my world.  Anyways, during my kids' naps snoozes, I managed to get started on something that I am really excited about.  I began thinking a few days ago... what if there were math centers designed for every single math standard I teach.. and for cheap!  I wanted to create something that would be useful and well organized for myself and others.  I have posted before about how I organize my stations by standard, and I wanted my actual stations to be organized by standard.  Some standards are more difficult to teach than others, and some have more resources than others.  For example, there are a TON of things on place value, multiplication, and common standards like that.  But, what about the weird standards that fit here and there?  So, I have come up with a Common Core Math Centers Series that I began working on today.  I have started with the first standard, MCC4.OA.1, and I have created two math centers that directly align with that specific standard.  This will continue until each MCC4 standard has at least two math centers.  I am so excited about this because it is something that I will use in my own classroom.  I had already started making some, but they were here and there and not in any particular order.  The great thing is that they are all blackline masters which means no colored ink.  All you have to do is print them on bright paper, laminate, cut, and VIOLA!  I actually went to Office Max today to buy three packs of Astrobright paper (they were on sale, buy 2 get 1 free.)  I can't wait to get to work on Monday to begin printing and laminating.  I just love making these... they are so fun.  So... I have a preview of what they are and they are in my TpT store for $2.00.  The first set is for standard MCC4.OA.1: multiplicative comparisons.  There are two math centers in this set.  Take a peak!  You can click on any picture to be taken to my store.

I can't wait to share more of these with you!  

1st Day Freebie: November.

Here's my first day freebie for November.  I will have to update later.  Nyquil + sick= toothpicks on my eyes, and can't type!  I wanted you to have it, so I will update later with how I use the standards checklist in my classroom.  This is a $4.00 item so be sure to snag it today before it is gone!

This is my standards checklist and I can't wait to share how I use it!
