Math Journal Prompts

Every week I have a Math Journal center for my students during Guided Math.  I give them a question which they can respond to that pertains to the skill we have either just covered or are currently covering.  Students can write, draw and create number sentences to respond to the questions.  The general rule of thumb for writing in my class is that it has to have at least 3 sentences.  This applies to Math Journal as well.  In this package there are 50 Math Journal prompts to cover all the Math skills covered in 1st grade!

Geometry Ready to Go!

We've been working on Geometry - Basic 2D shapes.  Over the years I've created different activities for students to get engaged and challenge their thinking when it comes to knowing their basic shapes.  Now I've bundled them into a ready to go pack for you to use with your students in Guided Math!  The lessons and activities can be used in whole group, small group, and at centers!  It covers the basics of 2D shapes, overlapping shapes, and comparing shapes.  The contents are ready to go and can also be used in conjunction with the manipulatives you already have in your classroom!  Check it out!  I hope you enjoy!
