FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON - “Mini Lessons for Grade 3 - Reading TEKS”

by Mark Lyons

3rd Grade

Mini Lessons for Grade 3 - Reading - TEKS

This is a group of mini lessons introducing reading Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) standards adopted by the state of Texas in 2008. 

Each mini lesson is designed to introduce a specific TEKS standard. Some of the standards have been broken down into several mini lessons due to the content of the standard.

English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS) are included in each mini lesson, if applicable. The reading TEKS mini lesson helps introduce the TEKS with classroom instruction for that particular ELPS standard and its student expectation.

All of the mini lessons follow a similar format. There is a title, a listing of the TEKS standard covered in the mini lesson, a list of needed materials, Instruction, Practice, and Wrap-Up. The materials consist of one or more Instruction Transparencies and one or more Student Practice sheets. Every so often a mini lesson will list additional materials needed for the lesson. These are materials already commonly found in a classroom such as six sided dice, an erasable transparency marker, and plastic or paper counters. The pages labeled as Instruction Transparencies will need to be run off onto an overhead transparency sheet. The pages labeled as Student Practice will need to be run off so each student has a copy.

Each mini lesson is designed to introduce a specific TEKS standard. Once the mini lesson has been conducted, you may visit it again as a review or as a reteach for those students struggling with the specific TEKS.

The mini lesson teacher plans include all that is needed for each lesson. You need only make the number of copies needed and gather any materials as specified in the lesson plans.

FREE MATH LESSON - “Greatest Common Factor and Least Common Multiple Four-In-A-Row Game”

by Vintage Teacher

4th - 8th Grade

This interactive game has students choosing the correct GCF (Greatest Common Factor) or the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of a set of numbers.

This game is great for use with pairs of students on an individual computer or on a interactive board for the whole class.

Many slides have both the GCF and the LCM listed requiring students to carefully chose. Many students confuse LCM and GCF so playing this game as a class gives another opportunity to have discussions about the difference in each. This is a read-only game.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

FREE MATH LESSON - “FREE Ways to Make 10 Game - Summer Version”

by Teacher Tam

Pre-Kindergarten - 1st Grade

This fun addition game comes with a directions page and recording sheets in color (to laminate for classroom use) and black-and-white. It is really simple and easy-to-use, yet provides great "making 10" practice. Just add 10 objects in a cup or decorative box and you have a great math center activity! I use several versions of this game in my classroom throughout the year. My students love it! I hope you and your students do, too! 

This game addresses the following Common Core Math Standards for Kindergarten and First Grade: 

K.OA.3. Decompose numbers less than or equal to 10 into pairs in more than one way, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record each decomposition by a drawing or equation (e.g., 5 = 2 + 3 and 5 = 4 + 1).

K.OA.4. For any number from 1 to 9, find the number that makes 10 when added to the given number, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record the answer with a drawing or equation.

K.OA.5. Fluently add and subtract within 5.

1.OA.6. Add and subtract within 20, demonstrating fluency for addition and subtraction within 10.

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON - “I Have, Who Has - Monster Sight Words”

by Laura Martin

Pre-Kindergarten - 1st Grade

The ability to read sight words is an important part of learning to read and is included in Common Core standards beginning in Kindergarten. "I Have, Who Has" is an easy to use game that can review almost any skill. Monster Sight Words does just that - reviews 25 of the first sight words taught. The teacher simply prints, laminates, and cuts the cards then passes the cards out to students. Students must listen and concentrate as the cards are read. Once a child hears the first word on his card, he is able to read his card aloud. This set is perfect for advanced Pre-K students, Kindergarten students, or beginning first graders. My kids LOVE "I Have, Who Has."

FREE MATH LESSON - “Catch That Bug!”

by Angela Rubin

Kindergarten - 2nd Grade

There are 2 "different" games----each with 2 versions using the 120 chart. Both use dice to "move" through the chart. The first one will use 1 die and the kids will add 10 to the number. A second version of this has "roadblocks" along the way for kids to go back or forward more.

The second game uses 2 dice and students will add the numbers together. A second version to this has the same "roadblocks" as above.

They go perfectly with my Catching Common Core Bugs Math games!

This is a wonderful activity to use at a center or station. Students try to unscramble the mystery word. The mystery word is a word that is found somewhere in the classroom, only it has been scrambled.

Students can search the room and use clues if needed to discover what the word is.

This download includes one page of directions, a blackline master for the word card and clue card, and a student recording sheet. Plus, there is a page of sample work that is in color.
