I know it has been forever since I have posted on my little blog! Let's
just say I have been busy!! A new school year has started and I have 20
wonderful children that are keeping me busy. The job of a teacher never
seems to get easier. Since the Common Core roll out a few years back I
have been obsessed with teaching math in a student friendly and
conceptually focused manner. I truly believe that when students
understand what they are doing it leads to better math skills that they
can then apply to new concepts. Last year I started creating a new
product with daily word problems. Over the summer I tweaked it
and made some improvements and the result is 180 daily math word
problems. I am using these each day with my 2nd Graders. Each day
students solve one problem on their own and then we go over it as a
class. The word problems cover the majority of the Math Common Core
standards and present the material in deeper ways so that the students
can deeply understand the concepts. Check out some samples below and you
can grab it in my TPT shop HERE.

Fractions and Partitioning
We have been working on fractions and partitioning and I quickly made this sheet to help my students review. I noticed that they needed extra practice with partitioning a circle into three equal parts. Students benefited from the extra practice that this sheet provided. So just a quick freebie in my TPT shop for those who want some extra fractions practice! Click HERE to get this freebie!

ELA Common Core Standards FREE Posters
As a teacher in Georgia we have been busy researching and preparing for the common core implementation next year as I know many other states are as well. Since I'm on Spring Break, I have had a little extra time to work on things for next year. My grade level currently posts our Georgia standards we are working on each week in the front of our classrooms. In preparing for the Common Core I created a set of posters for my 2nd Grade team. Georgia has slightly altered the nationally set standards so I am including a set with the Georgia changes and abbreviations. If you see any errors PLEASE leave me a comment or e-mail me and I will gladly correct them. Thanks and I hope they are useful! I am working on the math standards and will post them when I am finished.
