Replacing Nouns with Pronouns

I love working with the 8 parts of speech, especially if I use School House Rock. I made this wonderful game for my students to play after watching the videos and some review games.








This is great for a quick review since there are only 10 questions and is multiple choice.




Each question gives students a sentence. The noun to be replaced is highlighted in yellow. Students must decided from 3 answer choices is best to replace the noun.






You can check out my other Parts of Speech products. Mac and PC versions are included!

Featured Game: Making 10


Each month, I will feature a new product that is great for the classroom. This month: Making 10.





Practicing addition is a basic skill for kindergartners. This games reinforces those skills in a fun, interactive way.

This game is a teacher versus student game. The students answer all the questions and if they get the answer correct, they get the points, but if they get it wrong, I get the points! Great motivator!


Students are given an addition problem with an addend and a missing addend that equals to 10.




Students work out the problems and give their answer. They click on the "Answer Button" to see if they are correct. Then, they click on "Scoreboard" to choose another question to answer.



There are 20 questions in all. It even includes a type-in scoreboard that is used while in "Slideshow Mode."





You can get this game here: Making Ten Powerpoint Game. Makes a great whole class activity, whether you're there or the substitute is there! Here what other teachers are saying:
"My students LOVE this game! They beg to play every day. Thanks so much!" - Donnalyn T.

"Great resource to practice this standard. Perfect for leaving for a sub."  -Kendria M.

Don't forget to check out my other "Making 10" games including seasonal and holiday themed games.

A special thank you to Mercedes for taking these wonderful pictures for me!

Thanksgiving Blog Hop 2015



      The Classroom clique proudly presents our Thanksgiving hop! Jump from blog to blog and gather some wonderful Thanksgiving traditions, recipes, and freebies.

    
     I have so much to be thankful for! Over this past year has been a real struggle for me. Doing TPT full time, helping my sister take care of her 3 beautiful children, and managing my seizures has made me strong and so thankful for every thing I have. I thank my family, especially my mother who was always there for me. My friends who still put up with me and antics. My friends in the Classroom Clique. Lastly, I thank my followers. You guys keep me running and motivated, especially through the exciting moments and the toughs moments. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!





      As is tradition in our house, I do the baking. It's mostly desserts. A few years ago, I challenged myself to make an apple pie from scratch (minus the pie dough). I have to say it was the most delicious pie we ever had. It was gone the next day. The recipe is very simple. I found it online at Pilsbury.com for Perfect Apple Pie. I added some a little powder sugar and apple juice to the filling to sweeten up the Granny Smith apples I used.






    I figured out how to do the Lattice topping for the pie crust. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. I used eggs whites as a glaze for the top and covered the edges with foil (to stop the burnt edges).






     It came out beautifully and served with vanilla ice cream, it was the best dessert I had ever made.




Each year at Thanksgiving I make a new dessert so my sister asked me to make peach pie. I'm up for the challenge! =)




     I don't have many Thanksgiving games in my store, but I made new a freebie just for this blog hop. Moreover, it's a forever freebie!




In this game, students use dry erase boards to write the lower case letter that matches the capital letter.



This game covers all 26 letters of the alphabet. It's a perfect game to review to check for understanding.




Students are given the capital letter and on their dry-erase boards, write the lowercase letter. Great for the entire class or in small groups. Students can also practice individually on the iPad.

You can grab this game here:

Thank you for stopping by. Be sure to stop by other teacher bloggers for more recipes, traditions, and freebies!

Trick or Treat! Blog Hop

 photo Trick_or_Treat_Hop_Header_zps5ebqxrf4.png


I'm so happy to join The Classroom Game Nook in a "Trick or Treat" blog hop! Halloween is literally around the corner (one week away) and it's time for teachers to go trick or treating with some awesome tips, tricks, treats, and more!

Sight words are fun. Tic-Tac-Toe is fun too! Why not put the two together? 

 photo IMG_1704_zpsqkdioqmh.jpg

My nephew who is in kindergarten practices his sights words every night. After a few weeks, he got tired of doing the flash cards. I decided to play Tic-Tac-Toe using his sight words. He was more than willing to play!

 photo IMG_1718_zpsawsc96vw.jpg

Set up is simple! Make a large Tic-Tac-Toe board on some paper. Write the sight words in each box.

Write X's and O's on some paper or index cards and you're ready to go! The first time around, I folded a paper in thirds and just traced the lines. Later, I made some boards, X's, and O's on my computer and printed them out.

You can save paper by drawing a Tic-Tac-Toe board on some paper and insert it into a Sheet protector. Use a dry-erase marker to write the letters. You can change the words any time with a eraser or paper towel. You can even insert 2 pages in one sheet placed back-to-back for 2 games in 1. You also have a carrying case for your cards and dry-erase pen!
