Hey, Little Ant and a Grouchy Ladybug Freebie!

This week we have done insects and they have had a blast!

We read "Hey, Little Ant" by Phillip and Hannah Hoose

We then did a fun writing prompt where they had to give three reasons as to why the boy should or shouldn't squish the ant! The answers are always so funny!

If you're interested, you can check out this pack here

We also did adorable little thumbprint ants! 

Tomorrow we are going to read the "Grouchy Ladybug" by Eric Carle.

We will do a response on "It makes me grouchy when...". If you are interested in this one, I have made it a freebie in honor of our insect week!!

You can get it here, or click on the picture below! 

Thanks for stopping by! Stay tuned for MORE insect fun!!

Question Writing!

We have been working on question writing in our classroom, and my kiddos have done a super job! I wanted to take it to the next level and try something different. Little did I know this was going to be a HUGE HIT in our classroom! They had so much fun with this! I was so impressed with the questions they wrote AND the answers! Some of them were too cute and some were pretty clever as well!

My kids begged me to do this again, so the next day we did magazine cut outs! Check out these awesome pictures!

I created a pack out of these prompts which includes even more!

St. Patrick's Day FREEBIE!

I was making some word problems for my kiddos tomorrow and feeling pretty generous, so I thought I'd turn it into a freebie for ya'll!

My plan is to have them glue these in their math journals and have them solve the problems together in small group! I have differentiated word problems too for the varying levels of kids in my class!
