Five For Friday November 21, 2014


Time again to link up with Doodle Bugs Teaching for Five for Friday!





In math we are hard at work on elapsed time.  We have been practicing telling time with a partner.



Having flash card relays... boys against girls seems to be the favorite!

We also practiced elapsed time with a partner this week. One partner made up a a problem. The second partner solved it, and the first partner checked it.  










We have also been reviewing multiplication with this fun Thanksgiving themed game from A Plus Kids.

Thanksgiving You-Know Multiplication

The game works very similarly to Uno, except the students also practice their math facts.  I love that it focuses on unknown factors for an additional challenge! The kids love that they are playing a game instead of "working".  I love when you can sneak in learning when they beg to do it!







We will also being using the Christmas You-Know version in a few weeks.

Christmas You-Know Multiplication





In reading we have been reading a variety of versions of the story Stone Soup.


We have been working on written responses and comparing and contrasting the different versions.


We are really getting good at using details from the text!




Next week we will celebrate our hard work by cooking our own version of Stone Soup.  One of my students from last year visited and asked if we were going to be making it again this year.  When I told him we were, he asked if he could stop by after school for left overs.





During our writing time, we have been hard at work on writing Fairy Tale Adaptations.




We have been learning the difference between a telling sentence and a showing sentence.






They are getting to be such good writers!  I can't wait to see their published pieces!

 











If you haven't entered already, be sure to enter to win a Base Ten Place Value Frame here.

Head on over to Doodle Bugs Teaching to share your week in review. Not sure how to link up?  Read my blog post here for some tips and pointers.  Have a great weekend!

BaseTen Place Value Frame Giveaway and a Freebie!


I have a student in my class who had a goal of adding two digit numbers without regrouping.  He has mastered that goal (YEAH!) and I felt he was ready to move onto regrouping. But, when we tried, he had a lot of difficulty understanding the concept, even when I pulled out the base ten blocks.  I was talking to one of the push-in teachers about  possibly using a place value chart with him, but she didn't understand what I was talking about.  Well, low and behold, I got an email from Didax that afternoon advertising this:

Exactly what I was looking for!  I ordered two of them, and I could not have been happier when they arrived!


It does not come with the base ten blocks, but I already had a ton of them on hand.  It did however, come with this handy instructional booklet filled with place value lessons that are all aligned to the common core!



With this particular student, I began at the beginning, making sure that his place value foundation was strong.


I asked him how it would change if we switched the digits around. He quickly changed the place value blocks to show me.



 

He is ready for regrouping the next time I work with him!

After checking out the ideas for teaching addition with regrouping using the frame, I pulled a small group of students over to work with them. They loved the hands on aspect, and I loved how they talked about their task without any prompts from me!




I love this new tool so much, that I decided to give one away to one of my readers!  Enter to win using the Rafflecoptor below: a Rafflecopter giveaway
