2nd Grade Common Core Aligned Assessments...

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share some math assessments that are in my TPT shop.  Each of these assessments aligns to second grade core content standards :).

I have also made some tens frame decks for students to use during math centers.  The first deck you can use for a variety of games such as "Make 10 Go Fish" or "Make 20 Go Fish".  On that deck I have included a card front for both of those games... I even drew the little fishy myself :).  The second deck is specifically for "Make 20 Go Fish".  I found that when playing "Make 20 Go Fish" using the first deck with my students, they had trouble figuring out what number they needed to make 20 if the number was below 11.  This was because the tens frames on the first set of cards just showed how many empty spaces you needed to fill to make 10.  So, on the "Make 20 Go Fish" cards I added an extra blank tens frame to the cards 0-10 to allow students, who need them, to count all of the empty spaces to see what number they need to make 20.
Here are both of the decks...

Shape Posters

Hey everyone!

My 2nd grade class is starting our geometry unit so I wanted some cute posters to introduce the shapes to them.  This set of posters introduces students to shapes and vocabulary they will need for your geometry unit. Each shape has a name to help students remember. The attributes of the shapes are in bold so they stand out to students. I just started using these with my second graders and they love them.

Here are just a couple of them...

   

You can find these at my TPT shop or my Teachers Notebook shop!

Shapes included are: square, triangle, circle, rectangle, pentagon, hexagon, octagon.

A Geometry Game

Hey everyone!

My second grade team and I are starting our unit on geometry, so I thought I'd make a game we could use in our centers.  This game is aligned to second grade core content for geometry standards.  It is fun way for students to review all the concepts we will teach in our geometry unit.  The game is Willy Wonka themed, which I think the kids will love.  You can purchase the game at either my TPT shop or my TeachersNotebook shop.  Included is: the game board, 27 lollipop cards (fronts and backs for each card), 27 golden ticket cards (fronts and backs for each card), directions for students, an answer key, and directions for setting it up.

The lollipop cards focus on shapes and their attributes.  The golden ticket cards focus on partitioning shapes and making fractions for shaded areas of partitioned shapes.  Each card has a number on it so students can find it on the answer key.  This allows students who are playing the game together to check each other's answers.

The game board comes in two pieces.  It is perfect for cutting out and gluing inside of a file folder.

Here is the game board...

This is an example of some of the lollipop cards...

 Here is the back of the lollipop cards.  You can print off the front (questions) and turn the paper and print the lollipops on the back.

This is an example of the golden ticket cards...

 Here is the back of the golden ticket cards.  Again, you can print the front (the question side) and turn over the page and print the back on the other side.

My second graders love any chance they get to play a game and they don't even realize how much they are learning.  If you use the game in a center, it is a great for cooperative learning.

A special thanks to Nikki at Melonheadz Illustrating for the cute Willy Wonka clipart and KPM Doodles for the game board.

Enjoy!
