I am headed into my third full week of school. I feel like I finally have my schedule down and hopefully this week will go smoothly. Our school is implementing the new Common Core Standards this year so I have been hard at work trying to figure all this out. This week in math I am teaching skip counting within 1000. I created the activity below to work on with my students.
I am also teaching how to ask good questions during partner reading. I made these Thick and Thin Question bookmarks as reminders.
I hope that you all have a blessed Monday!!
thanks for sharing. I'm in 2nd so this is PERFECT!

Dee,
DeleteThanks so much for stopping by. You should be able to download the bookmarks now. I am not sure why but my share option keeps defaulting back to locked. It is fixed now. Let me know if you have any problems downloading.
