Voting Math Freebie in honor of President's Day

In honor of President's Day here is a voting math freebie I've designed.  What a good way to learn about the voting process and practicing math at the same time.

On a side note, my niece and I have not quite picked her birthday cake.  I am hoping that it will all come together this weekend along with the invitations.  Really excited for her birthday!

Discovering Odd & Even Numbers

What to do with the magazines, newspapers, postcard advertisements, coupons, grocery advertisements, etc... in the mailbox?  After reading it, I don't place it in the recycling bin just yet, I take it to school to use it for academic learning.  Last month, we did our study on odd and even numbers.  This is what we did with the clippings...

Students and I discussed how we look at the last digit to determine if it's an odd or even number.  

Have a wonderful school week!


Dream it! Live it!

Color My Hearts Fact Families Freebie

My niece and I are making preparations for her Sweet 16 Birthday!  We are designing her invitations and looked at several cakes.  She took some pictures of different cake designs.  Hopefully, we will nail down exactly the look she wants.  So exicited for her upcoming birthday!  Have some wonderful memories of Elizebeth as a baby!

My students are continuing to review fact families, so I grabbed the designed I've used before for a skip counting skill and turned the design into fact families.  This activity goes perfect with the Valentine theme.  

Have a wonderful week at school and enjoy the classroom freebie!

**FYI  My website for MathGeekStudio.com is currently undergoing some changes.  It will be up in the very near future.  Thank you for reading my blog and hope you will be back soon!
