I wanted to pop in real quick and give you a rundown of what we are going to be working on this week! We are diving into
multiplication starting tomorrow! Here’s some of the things I’ve done in years past….
I do hope to stop back by later this week or weekend to show you what we come up with this year! I’m definitely going to pull from my
Multiplication Unit, but I also hope to come up with some new ideas along the way!
Today, I let my students choose their animals and they were SOOO excited! After exploring their research materials for a little while, we made our “All About” covers!
Susan‘s unit has a great guide on teaching this and the perfect printables to go along also! Y’all know me… I’m always running low on paper so I have to improvise ALL THE TIME, ha!
By the end of this week they should have a completed book with lots of fun facts, information, and nonfiction text features! Here’s to hoping ours turn out as good as
Susan’s, ha!

I used this last year when I taught second and it is FAB…which is why it was featured in my fave thins giveaway! ๐
I love this unit! I have brainstorming some ways to introduce basic multiplication concepts to my second graders as the end of the year approaches. Wish listed! ๐
Thanks for sharing!

You are brilliant! Just thought you should know! ๐
Ohmigoodness – Thank you so much for the love! I hope your kids love their books! Mine are obsessed and they keep asking me to make another one. I feel like a horrible teacher saying no because we have too much other stuff to do!
