March Teaching Resources

 

Are you ready for all things March? Prepare your classroom and lessons for this special month that ushers in spring.

What could be better than a bulletin board that serves as a math center? 

Challenge your students' critical thinking and fluency as they determine how many ways they can reach the target number. The task is similar to Boogle™ for numbers. Post the operation symbols and the target number you choose to easily differentiate the task.

Try this FREEBIE:

SCRATTLE is a differentiated, math and literacy, learning center activity that combines word work with computation; individual effort with competition. As in Scrabble™, students use a set of letters to create words. After recording their words, they calculate each word’s score using the letter values. Then they engage a friend in a battle wherein they compare their scores using >, <, and =. The student with the most >s wins the battle! (SCRAbble + baTTLE = SCRATTLE!)

This brand new resource is specially made for TPT Easel. (No print product is available.) 

Students will exercise deductive reasoning, inferencing, drawing conclusions, sequencing, problem solving, and computation.

It simply wouldn't be a fresh, new month without a new poetry unit.

POETRY POSSIBILITES for MARCH is a collection of 11 poems about St. Patrick’s Day, March weather, signs of spring, and kites. Each poem is followed by a page of teaching possibilities. These possibilities include a teaching point pertaining to poetry, as well as custom designed skill lessons and activities from multiple disciplines.

February Classroom Decor FREEBIE

The dawn of a new month means it's time for new decor.  This product is FREE and it offers lots of fun, February decorations.

Try this bulletin board math center:

The center is open-ended and easily differentiated, making it perfect for any elementary classroom. It is similar to Boogle(TM) for numbers. Using adjacent numbers, students are challenged to reach the target number in as many ways as possible. You post the operation symbols appropriate for your learners and change the target number as often as you choose. Critical thinking and fluency are exercised along with computation skills. And, this display is good for the whole month!

How Many Ways? makes a wonderful anchor activity, math center, fast finishers' challenge, and/or enrichment project.
