Welcome to my resources page! Here I am organizing many files that I find on the internet and also the ones that I have typed up myself. The categories are to the right. Feel free to use anything that you find.
I am making a new blog for next school year. This page will still be around. I will keep it as my old archive of storytown resources. Check out my new site: http://learningwithmrss.com.
One more thing…you have my permission to pin anything on my site 
Okay, I have been making fraction worksheets/games for my third year now. They were all over the place. I have now combined most of my fraction math station games into one Mega Fraction Packet.
There a total of 6 games that review the following
These games are intended to be used at math stations, so please don’t expect the students to spend more than 15/20 minutes on them. I did add some early finisher activities for some of them. See below for more details…
Here is my first game: Equal Parts. Please excuse the blurry pictures that were taken in bad lighting. Students match the equal parts, word, and picture. There is also a recording sheet for them to use.
Second Game: Find Part of a Group: This game has 4 problems that walk them through the process. There is then 2 problems that they can figure out using the little critters.
Third Station: Find the Whole – Again, this station has 4 problems that walk them through the process. The last two word problems they are to use the little critters to solve.
Fourth Math Station: Fractions Challenge! Comparing Fractions Here the students shuffle the fraction cards and pick a card. The students with the bigger fraction gets 2 points, the other student gets 1. There is a recording sheet for them to use.
5th Math Station : This is a board game with 18 cards that review finding the part of a group and finding the whole when given a part. This station has an answer key.
6th Station: Name the part – Students name the fraction. There are also lego ‘blocks’ that they can use to make their own – plus a recording sheet. This stations has an answer key.
Below is how I organize my stations:
I loves these envelopes, because you can see what game is inside, no need to put anything outside. If you are interested in purchasing the 6 pack math stations please visit my TPT store. You can download the last math station (naming the parts) for free here.
This site has served it’s purpose. I was moved to third grade and wanted a place to organize all the storytown resources.
My new blog is here: http://learningwithmrss.com
i am thinking of making new blog. i don’t like how i’ve organized this one anymore. it has served it’s purpose, but now I want one to be focused on the types of activities that i do with my students as well as files i’m creating. i’m thinking ‘santillanaclass.com would be a good name,
This will be one reading activity my students will complete next week.

Our school requires us to inclue a weekly objective and essential question for each subject. It took me some time to come up with a lesson plan format that I like.
Included in this freebie is an EXCEL lesson plan template that includes a spot for just that. I hope someone else can find it helpful
So, I found a better site to sell your files on. If you haven’t started a shop and want to… check out Teachers Notebook. You get to keep more of the money that you earn. Teachers Pay Teachers keeps more. At least that’s what I think.
I got this idea from Room 205. I wanted to do this activity, but it’s not November anymore, so I decided to make a flower using shapes, and then students will fill in the facts worksheet. It’s going to be the math activity station when I am doing math FCAT review stations.

I finally found several of my files that I used when I taught first grade. I added them to my new Teachers Pay Teachers site. I like that I can keep track of how many downloads each item has. I’m going to move my free files there and will also have some for purchase. I will try and keep them all under $5.
I saw this post at The Inspired Classroom (which by the way, I LOVE that blog!) I made a PDF brochure for my kids to quickly write down the information. Feel free to use. Students will be working on this next week while I pull small groups for FCAT Review.
state persuasive research – PDF File of brochure
FCAT is coming up in three weeks, so I will be taking the next few weeks to review all subjects, not just math and reading. I plan on using my PM Science/S.Studies time to review as well. I don’t want to hit them with tons of new information, because we will be working hard on math and reading.
We do not have many resources when it comes to social studies, so I typed up a packet to review Economics with them. I plan to use this as stations. I will also have a computer station. This is material we have already visited at the beginning of the year, so students should be able to work independently. This will give me some time to pull students who need that extra review before FCAT.
Feel free to use.
