Sporty Eggs


Here are a few math activities for the plastic eggs in your classroom.


We are using "sporty eggs" for a few math games this month.
(Please know you can use any plastic eggs for these math activities.)

 Each student or pair of students will need a plastic egg and three dice per egg to play.

Feed The Pigs!


Dollar Tree Piggy Banks = Instant Math Station!




We won't officially begin our Money Unit for several weeks, so I have plenty of time to add to these ideas (...and to add some "bling" to the plastic pigs), but until then 

Have a fabulous evening!

Morning Math Fun




Just found these spinning tops at the Dollar Tree tonight!
What a great classroom "bargain"!
Here's a morning work activity to review addition!

Click the "spinning tops" document above to download the pdf.

....Haven't found the spinning tops at the Dollar Tree yet....that's ok, use dice instead!


A few weeks ago, I picked up these "Dice in Dice"at the Dollar Tree!
Another Great Math Station Bargain!

Short Vowels Sorting Activity

Finally, the roads are clear of snow and ice!  So that means I am able to run errands today....before the next storm in the forecast for early next week!  Oh my!  My first stop was the Dollar Tree to pick up the adorable, monster gift bags.  After reading about the idea on Babbling Abby's blog, I knew my first graders would love the bags and so would I!  Check out Abby's blog for more information about these cute bags. Her blog inspired my latest addition to our classroom Working with Words Literacy Station.

Clip on the one eyed monster to download the work mats and the short vowel word cards.

Looking for a "monster" Valentine's Day project to compliment the monster theme...
Visit  "What The Teacher Wants"  blog for a super, cute idea!

If I have time this week, I will duplicate the file for long vowels.  Stay tuned for the update!  Have a great weekend!
