Sight Word Fun- Pancake Flip Game

Hi Everyone,

If your kids are like mine, then any extra practice reading and writing sight words is always in order.

Here is a fun game where the kids use a real spatula to scoop up a pancake. They read the word on the pancake, write the word on the recording sheet, then flip the pancake onto a plate.

This is perfect for pajama day or as a center activity. You can put all the pancakes out at once, or add them to the center as you introduce the words to your class.

This activity covers Fry's 100 word list and supports your Common Core Curriculum in a fun way.
And the best part is- you guessed it- it's only a dollar for the next few days! So click on the picture or the link here to grab it now before the price goes back up.

My kids LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this center. They practice both reading and writing their sight words over and over again, and they still love it.

Enjoy!

Math Task Cards

Hi everyone! I'm Rachel from 2nd Grade Rock Stars. Today I am bringing you some great dollar deals!

I love using task cards in the classroom. They are so versatile and can be used as centers, small groups, or my favorite as Scoot games. Not only do I love task cards, but so do my kids.

I have to tell you that math task cards have saved my life! I use them as Scoot games and in small groups. I also use them if my advanced learners finish a task early. My students know they can grab a set of task cards.

I am putting a bunch of math task cards on sale for $1 for the next three days.

You can check out some other math task cards here. I will be putting some of my other math task cards on for $1 as well. Thanks for stopping by and saying hi, Rachel

Build the Biggest Ice Cream Cone Math Games

Hi everyone! I'm Rachel from 2nd Grade Rock Stars. I Hope everyone is having a relaxing beginning of the summer, or if you are like me...a relaxing (HA HA) end of the school year. I still have 10 days left until school ends here in New York.

Today I want to share 4 different math games that will be $1 for the next 3 days. I don't know about your kids, but my kids love playing math games and competing against each other. So with the summer in mind I am bring you 4 different math games with an ice cream theme.

My kiddos love my Build the Biggest Ice Cream Cone games. The objective of each game is to build the biggest ice cream cone. For each correct answer, the children get to add the scoop of ice cream to their cone. The biggest ice cream cone at the end of the game wins!

My second graders love picking up the ice cream cones and comparing heights of the ice cream cones. I learned quickly how upset they would get if the ice cream cone and scoops of ice cream fell apart, so I attached velcro to the ice cream scoops and cones.

Thanks for stopping by and saying hi. Don't forget to come back tomorrow for another great dollar deal!

Science Interactive Notebook

Hi everyone! I'm Rachel from 2nd Grade Rock Stars. I am super excited to be part of Teacher Deals and Dollar Steals and to bring you this fantastic dollar deal!

There are only 31 more days of school for me (I'm so jealous of those of you who are closer to the end of the school year!)and my kids were starting to get a glazed look in their eyes during science, which is so not my favorite subject. You know that look...the glazed over, this is so boring look you get from your kids somedays.

So, I decided to try introduce interactive notebooks into my living and nonliving science unit. My kids were so excited when I brought out the different pages for them to work on. I mean, what 2nd grader doesn't like to glue and cut? The kids love to take their interactive notebooks home and color the pages. It also gives my students the chance to show off their work to their parents.

My kiddos worked hard on these pages of the Living Things Interactive Notebook. They loved it and so did I!

My Force and Motion Interactive Notebook is also on sale for the next three days.

Thanks for stopping by and saying hi. Don't forget to come back tomorrow for another great dollar deal!

Do you use the Common Core Standards? Do you need to get organized with the standards?

Hi Friends~
It's Dianna from Sassy, Savvy, Simple Teaching! I'm so excited to be back this month with you again here on our collaborative blog. Remember, I'll be here the 23rd of each month.

[click on the photo above for a direct link, make sure to follow me for updates]

I've got 6 products for $1.00! Yup you read that right! 1 for each grade level K-5!!!

I'm here to tell you about a product that was looooonnnnnnggggg awaiting a face-lift! I originally had Grades 2-5 Student Data Checklists from when I first opened my store & they desperately needed some TLC. So I finally finished an on-going project & added Grades K-1.

***WARNING*** If you already own this product, re-download updated file!!!

This product is all about organization really. It will help you when you are asking yourself:

Did I teach that yet?
Did I assess that yet?
Who knows that?

I find myself questioning my memory about everything, that's why we have to write it down.

There are multiple ways to use this product, see below ---->

Here's an example of what it looks like. You will get a Common Core Standards List & data sheet for each section of the ELA & Math Standards ---->
