Monday, what? {And a Giveaway}

ByElizabeth S.

You know what-what….

Linking up with my girl, Tara.  Love her 🙂

She has really kept me busy this summer, but I love everything I’ve created and can’t wait to start school to enjoy it.  {Did I really just say that?}

Here are my crafty projects this week.

First off- I was inspired by Tara’s “Believe” wall hanger:

I love this and knew that this is how I wanted to make my new name sign to hang above my classroom door.  I have to admit, that my daughter and her friend from France did most of the work.  Gotta love child-labor.  {I’m kidding}

Second-
I used Kristen’s labels to finally finish my table caddies:

Third- I finally finished my Common Core Aligned Math Word Wall Hanging Pennants.  What a stinkin’ mouthful.

What do you think?


Included are 5 pennants. Each triangle pennant measures 3″. Once
laminated and cut out, they can then be strung together on a 3/8″
ribbon.

I abbreviated the 5 domains as follows (just so that it will fit in my classroom):
Operations and Algebraic Thinking= Operations
Number and Operations in Base Ten=Number(s)- You can choose between “Number” or “Numbers”
Number and Operations-Fractions
Measurement & Data= Stayed the same
Geometry= Stayed the same

Also included is one page of blank pennants that are editable because I finally figured that out, thanks Ginger 🙂  Be sure to head over to her blog and check it out.

I also worked on a few more things, but sadly didn’t finish them.  I guess they will have to wait until next week. 

Now…for the giveaway.  Comment below that you’d like a copy and I will give away 5 copies on Wednesday night.

Winners have been notified…but if you’d like to find these in my TPT store, click the images above or {here}.

Don’t forget to link up with Tara!

Music in Math

ByElizabeth S.

Over the last few years, I’ve been incorporating music during my math class.  Just this week, we started our measurement unit and I was reminded of why I continue to use music to teach math.  Why? Think about it this way…have you ever gotten a song so stuck in your head that I wish you…

Fantastic Foldables

You know how I love Foldables, right? Laura Candler has created a linky party just for foldables…how cool is that?

  13. Your stuff looks amazing! I love how you used the labels on your table bins. I have bins like that and I am excited to have an idea to help my students keep them neat so I (hopefully) don't have to organize them every week. :)Caseywww.cuteclassroomcreations.blogspot.com
