Today I'm joining The First Grade Parade to share some of my favorite pins. I hope you find them worth sharing too.
Celebrating with writers is so very important. I fell in love with this certificate so much so that I created my own versions for all the other units of study that I do with my writers.
I could never visualize an easy way to make a pie chart with first graders until I found this pin. Brilliant!
Listening to the author of Pete the Cat read/sing his story is the icing on the cake. The kids love this.
Believe it or not, this pin comes right from a math lesson. It's the kind of math I'd love to do more of - a task that's highly engaging, based on problem solving, teaches various concepts, is easy to differentiate, and can last more than one day. Inspiring.
I love classroom books. My kids do too. This is one I really need to make. I've a feeling my kids would read it over and over.
Hooray for inspiring ideas!
Great pins! Did you know Pete is in a new book? I can't wait to get my hands on it!

Jenny, I saw the new Pete book on your blog for the first time. Yes, a must-read!
DeleteWhat a great way to do a pie graph! I have seen that all about the teacher pin before and have wanted to do that. Maybe I will get that done this year. The kids would love it!

Lori, I really need to make that book about me too. I'm sure it would be a popular read.
DeleteHi Tammy,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing my pin! It is definitely one of my favorite math lessons of all time. I have done it with kids from K-6 in various forms and it always super engaging, gets kids excited about math and really helps kids learn about compare problems!

Tara, I'm glad I was able to share your wonderful ideas with others. We need more math lessons like that in our classrooms.
DeleteI'm so glad you shared these. There were several I hadn't seen before!

DeleteI just love the Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes video! We will definitely be watching that this year.
ReplyDeleteIf You Give a Teacher a Blog, your kids will love it.
