April Showers Bring YOU Great Deals!

Hello April. . . . It may not be April yet, but I can see it. . . .It's on the way.

I love this time of year as it brings so much renewal. We've survived the winter (here in Michigan!) and are ready for the flowers to start popping out.

I have a special deal going on just this week. You get to be the first to hear about it. I have put the four featured resources from my store on sale for half off. That's for this week only. On Friday, April 4th they will not be on sale anymore. So look them over now and grab them if they will work for your classroom. Tell your friends too. You can click each picture to go to that product.

The title to this one is now Mixed Up Stories for April.

If the items above are too tough for your class, maybe you'd like your students to work on patterning. You can have this for free, just by emailing me at pjrbar@charter.net. Tell me that you'd like the April Patterns and I'll send it to you. Be sure to tell me the email address you want me to send it to.

Get Ready For State Assessments

 

Are you hanging in there? Is it time for your spring break? I've got you. I completely understand. That countdown is on! And then we will count down until the end of the year! That's a whole lot of counting.

Speaking of counting. . . Have you seen these? It allows your 2nd or 3rd grade students to practice skip counting. There is a lady bug on each page that helps the child to count on, or maybe they can already see the pattern and figure out the next number.

Practicing with these, helps to prepare your students for multiplication which may be in 2nd or 3rd grade. Letting them see the visual is a good idea. Also questions like these show up on end of the year testing, so that's another reason to get some practice in.

Another way to get ready for end of the year testing is to introduce

or practice finding coordinates. This set comes with a color AND a black and white set. There is also a recording sheet and answer keys provided.

This would be great for 2nd and 3rd graders. And yes, questions like these can show up on state testing, too!

Do Your Students Need Help With Pronouns?

 

Even though it's still March, your mind might be thinking of April already.

So here's something that your students might enjoy.

Click the picture to go to this product.

This set helps your students understand and practice locating pronouns. The theme is around Easter and April things. Since this is in black and white, you can print this on colored cardstock or paper. This can be used in a small group, in a center individually, or even with the whole class using a document camera.

This is the color set of the same product.

If you like these and want your students to get more practice year round,

there are sets of these for most months or holidays.
