I have, Who Has? Students are each given a card with an amount of money displayed. Students count the money on their card and then a kind of "around the world" is played. I like to time my students (the first time is painful) - students keep the same cards and play again. I've used this game in many different ways (multiplication, base-10 blocks, etc)

I created this Prezi to introduce to the students our study of famous people and places studied in grade three. Students will be introduced to the people/places, then will need to chose one to research. Students will present to the class one of these topics (or another approved person/place) through a prezi, powerpoint, or glogster.

Can your students SUBITIZE? Ideas for developing number sense (so students do not have to count every.single.time.

This is very interesting. I may try some of this with my math group ... I'm looking for ways to build number sense.

Money Words - each letter in the alphabet is given a monetary amount. Example a = a quarter. Words are listed and the students must find the value of that word according to the key. I used this with my higher students in my low math class as an enrichment activity while others mastered the skill.

Awesome site for Blogging - things to remember when teaching students how to respond. There is even a pdf file available that the teacher has created. On this paper, students are given sample blog responses and discuss whole class whether they would approve the comment.

I wish I would have seen this post yesterday. I had to reteach blogging to our book club group. Mainly, I feel the time constraint/computer issues we had the first two weeks set us back. However, I did something similar to this actually handwriting responses on the white board. The number of posts and details within the post increased dramatically.

My students created this voicethread to go along with the story "The Christmas Pony". Students can comment on each of these pages and it can be used in a self-guided reading group.

This is a GREAT video to discuss landforms and many students are familiar with this ride at Disney. Students watched this video and had to write down as many landforms as possible that they could identify. They really enjoyed it.

Students are given clues about a word that has a double meaning, and must type in the word. Example: used to measure and someone in charge of a country (ruler)

This is fun. I can't wait to try it with my students.

This is a fun game that requires students to first identify the type of sentence and then capitalize and punctuate the sentence.

Thanks Kim! I used this site in the past, but the post reminded me of it - I have a few students that would really benefit from this, thanks!

A game for students to practice subjects and predicates.

Ten Trends that are changing in education. Preparing kids for the future - white's will not be the majority, global citizenship, building social/intellectual capital. Students NEED to be ready to live and work in a highly diverse nation and world!

Students can predict and/or report the weather on this interactive site.

Students practice reading idioms and identifying the correct meaning

Short stories for children. I plan to use these short stories at centers in the classroom. Students will read the story, respond in a peer journal, and discuss responses.

Student bookmarks for "The Keeping Quilt"

Students fill in even numbers on a number grid. I am using this with my low math group.

Money Word extension - this is similar to the other one I posted, only in this game, students make up words and determine their money value. Extension.

Counting Money - up to $4. I like this organizer because it includes dollars and cents to be added up together. PA Standard: Students should be able to count a given amount of change up to $5.

Counting Money Matching Game - great resource to send home with students who need extra help with counting money.
