Spin it...Spin it Good :)

I'm happy it's Friday.  You?

It's felt like a long week of trying to accomplish lots of little random things.  I started a new classroom décor theme set (available soon!):   A SUPERhero Classroom!  I just couldn't help myself when I found this and this during the TpT teacher appreciation sale.  What classroom theme (if you do a theme) do you have in your classroom?  I'm looking for more suggestions on what other themes I should make this summer.

Moving on - I found this cute math game in the archives that I wanted to bring to your attention.  Perfect for the end of the year as you review (or frantically try to finish - hehe)!

Students spin (using a pencil and paper clip) and solve different math problems.  For example, if using the 50 spinner, a student spins and lands on +20, he/she solves 50+20.

 

There are even blank circles if you want to make your own spinners!  Could it BE more easy?  Nope.  It couldn't.  Just download, print, and play, then call it a day :)

 

You're welcome.

 

If you don't need it now, no worries, it will always be available in my "Math Games" archives under any of the 4 operations headers.  Have a fabulous weekend everyone.

Interactive Notebook {Force and Motion!}

Morning, my friends!  Hope your week is off to a good start - how many days of school left now?

 

I wanted to share with you all a product that I just posted on Teachers Pay Teachers  in the wee-hours of the morning :)

 

I've been dabbling in interactive notebooks a bit.  I made my first one when I created my Native Americans social studies unit back in the fall.  I got such great feedback, that I created one for my colonial America unit as well.  Since then I decided to go back and create some for some of my science units.  I made one for plants a couple weeks ago, and this morning I just posted one for force and motion.

 

Check out these sample pages:

 

 

 

 

I totally wish I knew about interactive notebooks when I was still teaching!  I would have totally been all about them. :)

 

Do you use interactive notebooks in your classroom?
