This was a new game for us and I was hoping it would be a hit. I have to admit, it went even better than I thought. All the boys ended up getting in on it and we practiced all kinds of math concepts. 100s chart, even/odd, greater than/less than, and more. Don’t miss…
This is a game that Baloo and I play fairly regularly. Just for 5-10 minutes at a time as it gets tiring, but it’s great practice. And it’s fun! And it’s easy to switch it to addition war, if necessary. Or even subtraction war – whoever gets the lowest number wins. Whatever math skill you…
Dominos are one of my favorite math tools. The kids get excited to use them and there are so many fun ways to use them. But what is better than themed dominos? Nothing, right? Check out the other math activities here! I ran out of green cardstock, so yellow it was. In hindsight, white…
In my younger (kid-free) days I was a big SuDoKu fan. I actually had a job where we would take a break every day and race to complete SuDoKu. I never won (although I’m not that bad, they were just super quick). I really enjoy the way SuDoKu cradles the creative mind. I used to…
I love a math activity that I can do with all the boys at the same time. But they’re all on completely different levels, so it doesn’t really happen often. Shamrock STOMP however is great math fact practice and they all get to work on their own level! Don’t miss the rest of the…
We love cereal but I try to limit overly sugary cereal – so when as excuse comes up to buy something fun like Lucky Charms, we jump at it. And what is more fun that some early morning graphing? One math activity all my boys have loved, starting from a very young age, is graphing….
The Mitten by Jan Brett is one of my favorite books. There are other illustrated versions of the folk story “The Mitten” but Jan Brett’s is my favorite. Her illustrations are just far superior to the other books. However, I have read other versions and do enjoy them immensely. Every year we seem to read…
My arctic animal pack continues to be one of my most popular packs (surpassed only by Elf on the Shelf). It is also one of my oldest packs. So I HAD to do an update to get some of my new pages in there. This is a K-2nd Update. 20 Pages of math and language…
Word Problems, in my opinion, are especially important to practice. Because in the real world, nearly all problems are approached from a word problem” point of view. Knowing how to perceive the words is very important! That’s why I love word problems! Included in this set is 10 addition problems and 10 subtraction problems all…
I would LOVE to LOVE Star Wars. I was just telling a friend that I really enjoy the movies but I just cannot get into it like some people can. I wish I was a huge fan! As it is though, my kids love Star Wars! And as I aim to please, here is a…
If you’ve arrived at this link I am sorry to say that I’ve decided to pull down this resource. It was not culturally appropriate and most likely would have been offensive to our native people. I am working on an alternative resource. So stay tuned.
I am over the moon excited to share this product with you today. If you have kids that are struggling with math facts, you NEED Times Tales. Baloo is 9 and understands multiplication perfectly fine, but he’s not quick with his facts. When it gets up to 6 times 8 I start to lose him. …
