FREE MATH LESSON - “Free! Santa Express Geometric Christmas Train 2D Shapes”

by Christine Maxwell Hand to Heart
Pre-Kindergarten - 3rd Grade

There are so many great stories about trains for children! A very special story for the holiday season is the classic "The Polar Express" by Chris Van Allsburg's. This fun product incorporates 5 geometric 2D shapes into the building of a train engine, plus a creative literacy activity.

There are 3 complete train engine choices; 1 has red and green colors, 1 is grayscale colored, and the last is black and white. The train can be made as a stand-alone, but that is better printed on heavy paper. It can also be made by gluing the pieces down on another piece of paper. 

This project is excellent practice for the fine motor skills of cutting and gluing. ****Do watch to make sure they cut the four wheels as circles. It is a good idea to give each child a baggie to hold their cut pieces until they have glued them all.

Introduce or review the five shapes; circle, square, triangle, rectangle, and hexagon. Decide if posting the picture of the finished Key that is included, so the children may use it for reference. When doing the black and white or grayscale engines, the children can color or decorate them when finished. 

This activity can also be used in a center, but it is better if the pieces are laminated first. Some of the pieces are small so a baggie helps to keep any from getting lost.

These 5 shapes are Common Core aligned for Kindergarten Geometry 2D shapes, but the activity can be used for several ages and grades. 

The literacy activity has a black and white train paper with lines for writing and reading their creative stories. There is a cover sheet to make these stories into a class share book the students can read and reread again and again.

Download the Product to see and get the complete activity. 

I have another train product that can also be a Christmas train activity, but can be used at other times of the year too.

FREE MATH LESSON - “2nd Grade Math Spiral Review | 2nd Grade Math Warm Up | 2nd Morning Work- Free”

by Tessa Maguire
2nd - 3rd Grade

Keep your students sharp with the Common Core 2nd grade math standards with this 2nd grade math spiral review set. There are 40 pages with an ongoing spiral of each of the standards throughout the set. These are perfect for morning work, homework, or as a quick warm up to your math workshop as students keep their skills fresh with the standards. Each page has 5 sections, keeping things visually clean straightforward for students.

This sample includes 4 pages so you can try them out with your students before you purchase.

WANT MORE?

This is a sample of my 2nd Grade Common Core Math Spiral Review. Click the links below for the others.

Set 1 | Set 2 | Set 3 | Set 4

Or, you can get the full year bundled with a $1 off each set!

WHY THIS SPIRAL REVIEW?

• Predictable- Students get used to the format and know what to expect for homework or morning work each day.
• Easy to differentiate- It's easy to partner this set with another grade level's to give students work the grade level below or ahead. Or, some students might just need the amount of work decreased, and eliminating sections or rows makes differentiation easy.
• Ongoing spiral- Each standard is included several times throughout the 40 pages. This means students have ongoing practice with the standards, and exposure before they're needed to master the standard at a higher level.

OTHER 2nd GRADE PRODUCTS YOU MIGHT ENJOY:

• Addition & Subtraction Facts 5 in a Row Bundle

FREE MISC. LESSON - “Free Friendship Video: Chill and Get Back to Work”

by Rainbow City Learning
4th - 6th Grade

Bullying issues? Another kid handing you grief? A sibling annoying you like crazy? We can help with your social skills!

Use this social skills video on its own in your classroom to promote lively conversations around the fact that we need NOT react to every last comment thrown our way, to teach the song itself, or better yet, use our Bullyproof Rainbow Unit to underline the ever-so-valuable bully proofing lesson. 

Fun details:
This anti bullying video features kids from our Bullyproof Rainbow afterschool program. The song "Whatever" (which makes everyone feel better!) is from the I Am Bullyproof Music library. The fun voice on "Whatever" is another fun teacher's daughter, Shannon Frick. So, in a nutshell, this video is provided, our kiddos to yours, by three teachers in three different towns! Got to love TpT :-)
