My Side of the Hallway

Hello all! I've been in a creating mood lately. My coteachers and I are in the process of revamping our reading/literacy/small group time, and I've been searching ALL over the internet for great file folder games to use with my kiddos. Thank you to all of the amazing bloggers who so willingly share their fabulous creations!


I've also been on the hunt for great math games, and I've found so many! Now for time to use them... I heard about a great teacher in my building using math groups instead of teaching the concepts whole group. I'm sure most of you know about this already, but I just never saw it working in my room. Well, I've decided to try it! We will see how much progress we make this late in the year, but it is going to be the way I start next year!


My class right now is learning about fact families. We did some adorable fact family houses yesterday to make into a class book. Most of my kiddos are pretty solid with the concept, but several are really struggling. I made this today during my few minutes of peace. It is the first thing I'm sharing outside of my building! How exciting! I hope you can use it!
