Math centers and Morning activities

Ok so here are some of my math centers.  I have 12 boxes that contain a math center.  Here are just a few.  My littles work on two of these a day.  I am working with small groups of students while they work on these boxes.  My boxes have a number on them. I got this idea from Mrs. Wills Kindergarten. You can find her link here.

Fun with Shapes Math Center-Students just create a picture and trace the shape.  All you need is white paper, shapes, crayons or pencils, and a creative little mind!



This is from my Snowy Friends Unit.  Students match the ten frames to the corresponding number.



Another center from my Snowy Friends Unit.  Students put #'s 1-20 in order, then complete this page.

 

 

 

Here are a couple of my students' math journals.  This is one that we did today.  You can find these word problems in my Snowy Friends Unit here.

 

 

Now... How do my mornings go??? When my students arrive, they turn in their communication folder and get started on their morning work.  After completing morning work, they put their letters in ABC order.  When they complete that...depending on time, they get out their "Ziploc" bags.  They contain familiar reading materials.  How do you start your day?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sight word write the room

So I forgot to make copies of my recording sheet for my sight word write the room.  I had my students just use white paper and rainbow write words when they finished.  They loved it! 

Sorry that the pic is sideways!

My New Laminator and Glue Sponges!!!!

Ok so the laminator at my school officially bit the dust!  I decided to purchase my own.  I just got a laminator from Wal Mart today!  Its a Scotch brand laminator.  It was $20.  I have already used my first package of sheets.  I absolutely love it! 

Now... for Glue Sponges!!!
I have seen this on a blog and decided to do  my own.  My kinders go through glue like CRAZY!!!! Here is a link to the YouTube video on how to make the sponges.  I made 4 of these.  I will be back next week with pictures from my Snowy Friends Unit.  Have a great week!

Now on a different note....

My husband and I are very greatful to be the parents of 2 beautiful baby boys.  Our oldest ,Luke, is 18 months and our youngest, Levi,  is 7 months.  We were basically told 4 years ago that we could not have children. Well God had a different plan.  After 4 years of prayer, dismay, heartbreak, and struggle in 2012 we had our first son.  Then, we quickly had Levi.  He came at 33 weeks! We spent 4 weeks at Arkansas Children's Hospital.  I would not wish that upon anyone.  Through it all my LORD and SAVIOR cradled our little blessing.  We had sooooo many wonderful doctors and nurses.  Thank the Lord, now we are home and going strong.  Can anyone relate? :) 

Target Goodies...Winter Math and Literacy

Here are some wonderful goodies that I bought at Target.  I LOVE Target!  The book baskets and rectangular baskets are from the dollar section.  The plastic storage tubs are for my math stations( I am adding 5 more).  I will now have 12 stations! This idea came from Deedee Wills.  You can view how she organizes her stations here.

Now for my new product... Winter Math and Literacy Centers. It is on sale for $4.75 until next Friday, January 17th.  The original price is $6.  Get it before its too late!
