Life in Elementary School
Math Workshop
Recently, my students studied the distributive and associative properties of multiplication. Check out the Math Workshop link at the top for more information on these activities.
Fairy Tale Fun
My own personal literary obsession. I love fairy tales and they are great tools for teaching character traits! With the new spins on classic fairy tales like Seriously, Cinderella is SO Annoying they are great tools for text-to-text connections as well. Check out the Fairy Tale section for my lesson plans and ideas.
Tales of a Third Grade Nothing!
Afters spending day after day as the lone adult in a tribe of 8 year olds is purely a wonder i haven't caught "cooties" or bought a Justin Bieber CD (wait, do they even sell CDs anymore?). However, I have fully embraced my love of Fairy Tales, plays, and science experiments. I even have a new found love of games involving serious math. Did you know my third graders can multiply into the thousandths place? Put anything into game form and they'll gladly "play" along.
My favorite time of the day for students to bond as a class! They work on greetings and learning through educational games.
