Happy Tuesday. I hope it was a great day.
This week we are learning about -ar words (star, car, fart, etc) using Babbling Abby’s Pirate Mark Unit! It’s AMAZE-BALLS! You really should get it and use it. Click the link…for real…or walk the plank.
Since Pirate Mark is running amuck in our classroom, I thought I’d bring some pirate fun to math time too. We already have pirates helping us subtract so how about some pirate graphing? Ahoy, matey, it’s a freebie!
First off, these cubes. I.am.obsessed. If you don’t have some, go to Amazon right now and order a set, or two or six. Seriously…the uses for these things are endless.
Click the picture to go to amazon and order a few sets.
OK, my love affair with these cubes is over…onto the graphing pirates!
It’s such a simple and QUIET activity! Roll the cube. Graph. When one column reaches the top, make tally marks and count how many! Did I mention quiet and pirates?! Ahoy, Common Core!
Snag your freebie below. (If you don’t have cubes, just print the pictures and put them in a bag and they grab one out, graph it, return the picture to the bag and repeat!)
