long division work mats

Work Mats
Work mats are a great way to support students as they learn new skills. My collection of work mats cover skills such as long division, 2-digit multiplication strategies, fractions and decimals, subtracting mixed numbers, and measuring angles.

math games printable and digital

Digital & Printable Math Games
Not a day went by that I didn’t have a math game available in my classroom. During the pandemic, I converted all of my printable games to digital form, which are just as fun! Read more about my love for playing games in this blog post.

differentiated task cards

Task Cards
Task cards are one of my favorite resources to use in the classroom. They are extremely versatile as they can be used for small group instruction, choice boards, gallery walks, Quiz-Quiz-Trade, whole group instruction, and more!

Boom cards

Boom Cards
Boom Cards are my favorite resource to assign students for independent work. Because they are self-checking, students receive immediate feedback after each question. Their game-like feature is what students love most!

This Thanksgiving craftivity is so simple and makes the perfect November bulletin board. You’re going to love how festive your classroom or hallway looks with these on display!🍂🦃

✏️ Students first list the factors of their number in the t-chart and then circle prime or composite. A level of difficulty chart is provided to help students choose their number. 

🖍️ Next, students label, color, and cut out their turkey.

✂️ Then, they label each feather with factors before coloring and cutting them out.

🦃 Finally, students assemble their turkey and display in the classroom or hallway.

This festive craftivity takes about 45–60 minutes to complete, depending on how much detail students add to their designs. So take a break from small groups or choice boards and plan a day for creating Factor Turkeys! 🦃

➗ Players then compare their quotients, and the player with the larger quotient covers a pumpkin. 

🎃  Whoever covers the most pumpkins wins! For a quicker game, play until one person covers 4-in-a-row.
