Big Kid Math Holiday Bunny Color By Number

So, I've finally had time to make a color-by equation activity I've been thinking about for a while.  You can find it HERE in my TPT store.


It's a winter holiday color-by-number for 5th-7th grade math students. This activity has numbers represented by equations. For example, the number 12 might be represented by the square root of 144; 2 squared times 3; 3 to the second power plus 3; 48/4; or just the number 12.

In order for kids to enjoy this activity, they should understand exponents and square roots, as well as order of operations and different ways to represent multiplication and division (dot, x, fraction, slash, division symbol). This activity should not be used for students with trouble seeing small numbers or for children with dyslexia or dysgraphia.

Hubpages - Why and How I Wash my Dishes by Hand

 My dishwasher bit the dust about a month and a half ago.  As I'm taking a year off work and going off my savings, I decided not to replace it and have instead been washing dishes by had. Oddly enough, I've found that I kind of like it, and I've worked out a way to get around the "gross factor" and keep everything rather not-disgusting.  I wrote and article for Hubpages that you can find here: I realize it's hardly anything earth-shattering, but I hope it helps someone in the same situation.  As a side note, my old dishwasher makes a great pantry!

Squirrel Banjo Band Preposition Interactive Notebook Packet

Image
  It's hard to keep kids engaged with grammar. I always try to make my sentences and activities as silly as possible to keep the kids interested. One of my favorite ways to keep kids paying attention is to use their names in example sentences. I pick a numbered stick, ask the child if I can use his/her name in a sentence, and write the sentence on the overhead. The class corrects the grammar in my sentence or finishes a sentence starter with a certain grammatical task. Today, I created and posted a packet of "old school" notes on prepositions (5th grade Common Core skill). The packet features a Squirrel Banjo band. The worksheet on identifying prepositions tells a story of an annoyingly loud Squirrel Banjo Band, a visit from an (unnamed) president, and a happy ending for all involved. It includes two pages of interactive notebook notes (Old School notes are on grid paper and meant to look like sheets from before mass-production), a drawing and practice activity, and ...
