Descriptive Turkeys




Do you need a fun activity for a short week? Students love Descriptive Turkeys! My class will complete a descriptive writing and picture for each holiday, and their writing sure improves!

Sometimes our schedules are so packed that it makes it challenging to do some fun activities, such as drawing. This is a perfect way to allow students some time to draw.

Here are few of the amazing turkeys.  We talked about large bold patterns that could be seen across the room. Students had to think about a way to describe the pattern, so that it made sense.










You can find this activity here by clicking on the picture.

Math Programs

Our school has used Everyday Math for about 12 years, but there has been a lot of supplementation.  I liked it at first, but over the years it was less helpful to my students.  As a teacher, I could clearly see which teachers supplemented and which did not. As a parent, I didn't care for it. There simply wasn't enough practice.

This year we are starting My Math.  Their on-line program sold me! It'll be so nice to not need to create my own PowerPoint lessons for an activity!  I'm excited for the change. I've used parts of the program previously, but I still found that some students just need additional practice.  I've created a few place value activities to start off the year, and hope to create more as we move through the program.
