Only 171 More Days Until Christmas!



Did you know there's only 171 (or so) more days until Christmas!!??!!  That's less than half a year.
CHRISTMAS FREEBIE FOR 
PRACTICING ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION STRATEGIES
It’s never too late to think about Christmas activities!  Here’s a cute FREE math GAME for the children to play in those hectic weeks before Christmas break.  It's a great review because not only do children have to solve the addition problems, they need to identify the strategy they used to solve the problem.  It makes a great formative assessment to judge children's understanding of addition strategies!

While you are visiting my store, be sure to check out my back to school activities.  One of the favorite activities I do with my firsties during the first week of school is my Read All About Me activity.  It's great to display on the walls for open house!  It also gives you the opportunity to learn a little bit about your firsties, and it covers skills in both math and language arts to make integration easy.  Since we always start school on a Wednesday, I pair the activity  with a book I inherited in my classroom called "All About Me," and it makes for a nice, integrated block of math and language arts before we jump into the curriculum during our first full week of school.

                     




I hope you enjoy the rest of your summer!  May the hot, sunny days go slowly for you!!
