Teacher Tipster has officially released their first album! It's called Brainy Beats. This collection of raps and rhymes will have you hip-hoppin' your way through the school days. Download the album in our shop and then print off the lyrics for free here!
Here's a little sign that you might use to play the Inspector Fix It game each day. I laminated mine so it would last longer. I simply write a "messed up" sentence next to this sign every morning. The kiddos help me correct it. We look for mistakes in spelling, punctuation, capitalization, etc. See my Inspector Fix It tip video to get a better picture of how this might work in your class!
Here is the hand trick writing sheet. I use this device to teach my class how to write a simple story. The hand graphic includes an O for the opening sentence, 1-2-3 for the details and a C for our closing sentence. This is one of the first things I start teaching my class in writing and it really pays off. Watch my "Hand Trick Writing" video to see more about this printable!
Here's another poster that you could use in class. This one teaches the "Parts of a Story". That's author, illustrator, setting, characters, problem and solution. These are the lyrics to our "Story Parts" song that can be found on the Brainy Beats CD. Or, you could just use it as a helpful chart during your reading group time! Have fun!
Here's an awesome label for your "Power Towers" tubes. (See the Power Towers video) This was created by Laura over at The Grade Two Zoo! Check her out at http://www.thegradetwozoo@blogspot.com! She's got a ton of cool ideas to share! Thanks again Laura!
HomeNothin' fancy here. Just a little poster to go with our clock song. Check out the video now to learn how the lyrics go. I like keeping this in a sheet protector so I can have the kiddos fill it out over and over again. A version of this tune is also on our Brainy Beats CD. Head to our "shop" to download the clock song if you don't already have it! :)
Welcome to "Hotel Hundreds"...may I take your bags? This is just a fun take on a regular hundreds chart. Simply explain that each box is a room in this high rise hotel. The students can "ride the elevator" up and down to help answer tricky math questions. This will help some of the kiddos to visualize 10 more and 10 less questions a little more clearly. Good luck!
Here is the 1st Grade Mountain Math sheet that I mentioned in my "Mountain Math" video. I LOVE this program and have truly seen a difference in my students since I started using it a few years back. Head to www.mtmath.com for more info!
I'm so proud of this new chart! I'm using it to help teach fact families. I tell the kids that every fact family has a Daddy, Mommy and Baby. (That's the large, medium and small numbers.) We use these numbers to make up two adding and two subtracting sentences. Have the kids write three numbers on the stick people's heads. Then they can complete the number sentences in the box below!
I use these signs to help organize any work that the students turn in to me. Post the letters sign over one basket and the numbers sign over another. Literacy pages can be turned into the letters basket. Math pages can be turned into the numbers basket. Your papers will be straight and organized when you are ready to gather them up!
This is a packet of 3D shape posters! These match the lyrics to my 3D shapes song on the Brainy Beats album. It covers sphere, cylinder, cone, pyramid, cube and rectangular prism. My kiddos love dancing and acting these shapes out. Best thing of all? They're free for you to print right now!

Here is the "Power Phrase Hero Challenge" printable! Have your students choose a hero and read the set of fluency phrases. If they can read them quickly with no mistakes they can advance on to the next challenger. Kiddos will have a blast trying to "defeat" all twelve of them. These phrases were made using my district's first 150 sight word list.
