Freebie: Halloween Tricky Teens Number Puzzle Sequence

My kindergarteners have been working on learning all about those tricky teens.  So as one of their math tub stations I wanted them to get the extra practice and putting them in order.  I could have just used simple number cards, but hey, Halloween is just around the corner and I wanted them to have fun sequencing tricky teens.   

I was just going to make Halloween themed flashcards for them to use.  That would make it hard for them to self check their work.  Then I thought, I'll created a Halloween tricky teens number puzzle sequence.  Not only does it give them practice with ordering tricky teens, but they can self check by creating an image! And you can grab it for free.  Just click on the image to grab it!

Happy Halloween!!

Kindergarten Common Core Assessment Pack

I've finally had a chance to sit down and take a breath.  I always have so many plans for the summer and it goes by so fast.  

My biggest project is cleaning out our spare room to get ready for a new baby.  Very excited!  The weather has been crazy hot so it's set me back a bit with getting it ready.  

On another note it did give me a chance to go through my to do list for the start of school.  One of the things was revising our kindergarten assessment packet.  

Our district standards are always being updated to meet the needs of our student so I took this time to revise and update our assessment pack.  We are big on standardized report cards and in order to make sure all our K kids are scored the same we made sure to follow rubrics for each goal being assessed.  So throughout the years I've revised the assessments that we used to get it to where it is today.  It now aligns with the common core, our Everyday Math and language arts curriculum (Fountas & Pinnell and Teachers College).  A lot of work has gone into it and it is now available to purchase.

Dr. Suess Fun

The past two weeks have been super crazy around here.  My class has been busy with assessments and having some Dr. Suess fun during our center time. 

We are making some Thing 1 and Thing 2 people in our Art center.  Rolling and building a cat in the hat dice game at our math center.  I just simple took some clip art and cut it apart for the pieces.  In the writing center my kids have been busy with the Seuss Sight Word Sort and practicing beginning sounds with Seuss Spin -A- Sound from www.livelovelaughkindergarten.blogspot.com

Check out the pictures below of each of the centers.  I've also included the crate that holds each of the center task for them to complete.

A Little Valentine Fun

With Valentine's Day just around corner I've planned some fun center task for my class. Click on any of the pictures to check them out! Have a great week and Happy Valentines Day.

Writing Center Task will get them moving from the table as they locate the eight hearts each with a different bossy r picture and complete the word on their recording sheet.


Math Center Task is fun Be My Valentine Money activity from teachingfirst-abc.blogspot.com.  It goes along great with our penny counting practice.


Art Center Task is activity that was given to me by one of my coworkers.  Not sure where she got it from and I meant to take a picture of a finished one I made years ago to share. If you recognize where it comes from please let me know.


Phonics Center Task this week is a little Robot Love to help my little ones practice the bossy r rule.  They will practice reading the word on a robot head and then match it to the body that has the matching picture.
