Pictures, updates, and a freebie!

Hey everyone!! I know it's been awhile...but I've been super busy....and now my momma is here!!

(yes, that's me and my momma)

We've been hanging out, splashing in the rain puddles....

And of course going to the beach!!

(LOOK at that face!)

AND...now my oldest, A, has Cat scratch fever! yes...I know...

All I thought Cat Scratch Fever was just a song...

But no....it's not....

Remember these cute little things??

yeah...well.... we don't have them anymore...

We gave them to a good home though, don't worry. ANYWAY, one of them scratched A and gave her cat scratch fever. I know - it's so weird! Weird, but true. And we found out because A started having a "ball" in her armpit...in other words, her lymphnode in her armpit was swollen...and she had a fever. awesome.

SOOOO....just so you know. Cat Scratch Fever is real, people! lol

Anyway, last week, when we did my M&M activity pack, 

I found a few mistakes (oops - can you see one of them in my picture down there...lol)

Make sure you go download the revised version if you already bought it!

AND - I'm so excited because I have the multiplication part of the pack to like HALF my class! 

AND we had some serious fun with the science part too!

This week, it's the last week of school!!! WOOHOO!!!

We're doing my Summer Pack...

Orange 'ya glad it's a Blog Hop

I am so excited to be part of a Florida Bloggers blog hop!

I am the...

First, I have a fun product to show off today.

We ALL know how much I love the beach, so for me, these centers could be used all year 'round! But they are also a great way to end the year right before summer.

The Literacy skills include:

-Picture Perfect Summer: Labeling a picture, illustrating it and writing a caption. My kids LOVE doing these in my room!

-Sail Away with Syllables: sorting syllables and breaking apart the syllables

-A Day at the Beach Writing: 3 word banks with pictures and writing templates

-Surfing with Sentences: sorting types of sentences with missing punctuation and students write out the sentences

-Summer Sentence Scramble: unscramble 6 different sentences to write out. The capitalization and punctuation are missing to make them think!

-Summer Sorting: Sorting nouns, verbs, and adjectives

The Math centers include:

-Getting Ready for Summer: going shopping to get ready for summer! there are two cards for each item, one is the least amount of coins, and the other is a different combination of coins. The recording sheets allow the teacher to choose one way for the students to match, or you can use both ways!

-Fractions of the Beach: identifying parts of a group

-Mermaid Math: For this center, the teacher has the option of deciding if the students do 2 or 3 digit numbers as well as addition or subtraction. You can also mix up the number of digits or addition and subtraction. Or you can have them do all the cards. This center is very easily adaptable so that you can differentiate for your students. 

-"Just Beachy" Numbers:For this center, the teacher has the option of deciding if the students do 2 or 3 digit numbers. There is a page for either option. You can use a deck of cards, or I have provided cute themed number cards you can copy off! I did 4 copies for one set and each set was a different color. Students do +/- 1, +/- 10, +/-100, 

-Time to Catch a Wave!:For this center, the teacher has the option of deciding if the students do hour and half hour, or to add in quarter hours. This center is very easily adaptable so that you can differentiate for your students. 

- Summer Matches: Matching single digit addition and/or subtraction to the sum or difference. You can do both sets or just addition or subtraction!
