*Number Detectives Freebie* - Queen of the First Grade Jungle

*Number Detectives Freebie*

I had a whole different post planned, but I had one of those major brainstorms and came home and have been creating at my computer for some time with this big idea.  I have been trying and trying to find ways to challenge my high math kids this year and I think might have finally figured it out today during Math Work Stations.  These kids are Math Brainiacs I tell you, and I want to find ways to keep them excited without just passing them on to a 2nd grade teacher for Math.  Selfishly I also think this idea will keep me from having to search constantly for different materials. I was inspired by the other Mrs. King's  post :) about her Morning Meeting. If you haven't visited Second Grade Shenanigans, you are missing out. Her stuff is fabulous.

Sorry back to my idea- I love the idea of showing numbers different ways. Look I even took a picture with my phone so I wouldn't forgot my idea. Anybody else ever done that???

Well I thought this could be made into a  great little printable that could be used for morning work, math work stations, or even homework. So without further adieu here is my Number Detectives Printable!



Now I can go back to obsessing over whether or not we will be in school tomorrow as there is snow a-blowing outside my window!

  5. This is so awesome! This would also be great as part of your calendar time with the number of the day. You could slip it into a sheet protector and put it up in the calendar section.

  21. Katie,
    I love this printable! So fun and cute but I have a question...I teach the bigger kiddos and was wondering if you could add multiplication and division to it? Or if you didn't mind if I created one as well?
    Let me know! Beth

  24. The initial move toward zero obligation starts with assessing your funds. Take a gander at your wellsprings of pay and contrast them with your costs. Real wellsprings of pay can be your pay, income from a business that you are running, or a benefits. Things, for example, amicable credits can't be considered as wellsprings of pay. payday loans
