June Currently and Updated Freebie

So 1st off I totally messed up my yesterday post by not clicking SHARE in Google Docs, so no one was able to get the FREEBIES, I was trying to give away. So PLEASE go to yesterdays Monday Made It post and get your FREEBIES! 

Now on to the fun for the month. Farley has sent us her Currently, so of course I had to join. I LOVE these. It really helps me think about things going on in life right now!(Every Month) So anyways.... Here is mine.

So if you are not aware of  Tara over at 4th Grade Frolics Monday Made It, you just might want to go check it out. She is hosting a weekly linky to showcase all the things you are working on during the summer for school and home if you want to join the fun. I am loving it, except for the part I didn't click share yesterday and no one got my things. 

I sooo want to go back to Las Vegas, I LOVED it when I went about 8 years ago. I went to Hot Springs a month or two ago to go hiking, and I want to go back to Tybee Island, but don't think it will be till next summer.

Monday Made It Linky! and Math Freebies!

I am sooo excited that Tara from 4th Grade Frolics, decided to make her Monday Made It into a Linky Party. I know I am very happy she did as it will make force me to actually do more school and home activities because I want to see and share with what everyone else is doing  accomplishing this summer! So here goes....

School~I was asked about 2 months ago if I would help with a Math Workshop for Kindergarten for my county kindergarten teachers! At first I was super thrilled to be asked and of course jump on it, only to freak out later asking.... what the heck were you thinking!!!! Me in front of my peers teaching them something, yeah right! Put me in front of a class full of 5 year olds and I can do anything, but in front of my coworkers who most have taught many more years than myself....what was I thinking. 

So I finally got over my nervous part and got down to business! I was asked to do an hour on addition and subtraction! An hour easy peasy! This workshop could be whatever I wanted or needed it to be. The other three girls decided to do a make and take activities with their math topics. Great! But me with addition and subtraction didn't really think of alot that we could do for make and take, so instead I get the bright idea to create I CAN charts for the addition and subtraction activities that I use in my classroom. I have always wanted to do more I CAN charts, but never slowed down to make them, so why not do them now! 

So I went to work, but not until school was out which gave me a whole four days prior to presenting at my class. I am the biggest procrastinator ever! But I produce things great under pressure! 

So here are my creations...... feel free to click the pic and grab if you like what you see. 

Links Addition and Subtraction I Can chart and recording sheets! This one can be differentiated! Check out Marsha from A Differentiated Kindergarten's post on Differentiated Math Stations HERE.

Roll-A-Sum I Can chart and recording sheet and a dice. 

This activity was actually created by myself and 2 coworkers when we had to present at the UpperEastTennesseeCouncilofMathematics. I just made an I Can sheet to go with the recording sheet we made.

and 

   

Domino I Can chart and recording sheet. The recording sheet I found at Mrs. Plant's Press. Click here to get it.

Since I didn't need any materials purchased for my activities. I was able to get every teacher attending the book Quack and Count by Keith Baker. Our kindergarten students are required to read 5 math literature books during the school year, so I found this cute book and decided to ask for it! I made a little activity to go with it as well.

Here is another addition activity to go with the book Animals on Board by Stuart J. Murphy. We all received this book last year with our new math series.

So as you can see I have been extremely busy trying to make those! I enjoyed every bit of it, but I don't see how most of you teachers/bloggers do all the units and everything for TPT! I am extremely thankful that you do!

Home Project~ So the hubs and I worked on staining the front porch, back porch, and the girls swingset! 

As you can see the front porch and swingset completely finished:) The back porch though still a work in progress. We basically just got tired and quit to go pick up the girls from nanny's and haven't managed to get back outside and finish it!

Well as you can see I have been quite busy with school and home projects, so head on over and check out the linky party to see what everyone else has been up to this past week and join if your like me and feel that joining this linky will MAKE me be more productive this summer. 

I hope you have enjoyed what you seen or downloaded, please leave me a comment and let me know what you thought! 

Thanks

Preparing for SPACE Week!

So I am trying to work on some things for my kiddos to do this week for space week. I would love to buy a space unit, but I need to save to purchase my really big units that I use in my class (ex. Dr. Suess, Dinosuars, Insects, etc) I do alot with Space week, but it has snuck up on me this year, so I am making it on my own. Again I do extremely simple, but hopefully someone will benefit.

I have made a Space ending sound sheet.

A Roll an Alien face addition sheet with I Can sheet!

I also added a Space Vocabulary Cards, so you can go over the pictures used in the ending sound sheet. I have trouble with some students not knowing what the picture is; therefore, missing the sound.

I hope you enjoy!
