This program is designed for student self-assessment with the Math Common Core Standards. Students will be able to Self-assess and monitor their progress with the Math Common Core Standards. *Students will get 9 pieces of food with the Common Core Standards listed in child friendly language with “I Can…” statements. Students will color the food as they master a standard, and paste it onto a paper plate. (Great to display in the classroom for self-monitoring their progress) *Students will get a recording sheet with an assembled Math Meal, and will color and date each part of the Math Meal as they master each standard. This is a great way to document student progress for a portfolio, or data notebook. * Teacher will get a recording graph sheet to document the progress of each student’s Math Meals.

This is a simple fact family triangle that I took and alternated to work with multiplication and division. This particular triangle is for identifying the missing quotient in a problem. It gives students the answer and one of the quotients, yet the other is missing. Students can color, cut, and slide the strips of paper into the triangle and solve the problems as they pull the strips of paper through the slits. Each strip of paper has a symbol to show the students which numbers should be together. There is also a blank copy so students can make their own problems (higher level skills). Get creative and make your own problems, then laminate them and set them up in a math center. Please make sure to rate and leave feedback!

Here is a fun activity to get your students up and moving around the room while actively involved in math. Simply print, cut, laminate (if you want to save the cards) and hide the cards around the room. The pack features: Base 10 blocks Money Word Problems Fractions Addition and Subtraction problems Aligned with 5.NBT.A.1, 5.NBT.A.3, 5.NBT.A.4, and 5.NBT.B.7 CCSS All these relate to finding the decimal value for each card. Students record their answer on the answer sheet in the corresponding box. Then they must re-write their answers in the next set of boxes, while rounding their decimal to the nearest hundredth. Finally the students must complete the addition problems, where they are adding the value of two decimals that they found in the hunt.

This is a great hands on unit for 4-5 students that is aligned with ELA & Math CCSS, and Next Generation Science Standards for Engineering & Design. In groups students will read informational text about the evolution of clothing to then design and create a futuristic and functional clothing item based on the measurements of one group member. The clothing must be made only from the provided materials, must be able to carry food (snacks), must be wearable and fit the measurements of the selected group member, and be submitted for a weight evaluation. Students also have the option of creating an advertisement for the finished clothing item, which can be completed as a clothing commercial with technology or presented on a poster. ***Please note additional materials are needed for this activity*** Variety of Ziploc bags (small, medium, large), rolls of tape, snack items (pretzels, Goldfish, crackers, etc...), futuristic decorations (tapes, stickers, etc...) and a luggage weighing scale Standards: 4.MD.A.2, 5.MD.C.5, 4.NBT.B.4, 5.NBT.B.5, RI.4.10, RI.5.10, W.4.1, W.4.3, W.5.1, W.5.3, SL.4.1, SL.5.1 This packet includes: Cover Page Introduction and Objective Page 3 pages of ELA, Math and Next Generation Science Standards for 3-5 Lesson Procedures Student self assessment Teacher Sample of Finished Product (NOT FOR STUDENTS) Clothing Evolution Informational Text Designing Clothing Lesson Directions for students Designing Clothing Brainstorming Page Designing Clothing Measurement Recording Sheet Designing Clothing Current Functional Clothing Samples Designing Clothing Student Checklist Designing Clothing Measurement Explanation Designing Clothing Commercial Worksheet Designing Clothing Budget Sheet Designing Clothing Display Banner Designing Clothing Weight Check Please make sure to rate and leave feedback!

This is a 5th Grade Journal that is aligned with Common Core ELA Standards and Next Generation Science Standards. It is a journal that encourages students to mark, deface, tear out pages, paint, and generally "vandalize" it, while meeting academic standards. I made this product based off the idea of an art journal, but wanted to incorporate academics as well. This could be the perfect thing for your students that can't handle "traditional" journals, feel the need to constantly doodle, or are unable to be creative in their own way when it comes to class assignments. Great to have in a STEM/STEAM school and to show differentiation! The Vandalized Volume is over 60 pages and is divided into 6 sections: All About Me Friends & Relationships The World Around Me Keep Calm & Love Science Thinking Like an Engineer Get Creative Each section has 10 pages of activities based on the theme. This journal will encourage creative writing, sequencing events, story telling, researching, designing, testing, predicting, and so much more! Please make sure to rate and leave feedback!

Here is a combined packet of my popular "Life Cycle of a Star" sequencing worksheet, and "Life Cycle of a Star" vocabulary cards. Buy both together and receive an immediate discount! Here are the original descriptions of each: Sequencing Worksheet When I began teaching my Space Unit for Grade 1, I could not find any activities that depicted the star life cycle. We were trying to make connections to previous life cycles we had learned (butterfly, plant). This is a great activity to do with Early Childhood students. This depicts 5 stages of the Star Life Cycle: 1. Stellar Nebula (creation/birth of a star by gases being pulled together). 2. Average Star (when a star is burning brightest and appears yellow). 3. Red Giant (the star is burning off lots of gas, emitting heat so it appears red). 4. Planetary Nebular (gases are escaping the star and it starts getting smaller). 5. White Dwarf (the last phase before a star dies and it grows very small before losing all of its gas). My second language learners loved acting out the start life cycle as well: Pushing hands together and packing them as if they are squeezing the gas together (Stellar Nebula) Putting their hands by their faces with big eyes and smile to "shine" brightly (Average Star) Arms out to their sides and stomping their feet like a giant would (Red Giant) Arms pulling apart from their bodies to simulate the gas leaking out (Planetary Nebula) Shrinking down to the floor to get really small (White Dwarf) I have also included a student sample to help illustrate the different phases. Vocabulary Cards: It has been so popular that I decided to create some vocabulary cards to support this resource. Each card includes the name of the stage in the life cycle, a hand drawn image, as well as a description of what is happening to the star during that particular stage. Print and laminate for durability. Please make sure to rate and leave feedback!
