Reading Assessment - Record Keeping

Reading assessments are one of the most important components in the beginning of the year in my room. It really helps me learn a lot about my students as readers and helps me create a plan to help them not only become better readers but enjoy it as well. Come on over to I Heart Teaching Elementary to read how I keep track.


Graphs Galore!

I created this activity to use this week during centers.  I'm using it to reinforce graphing concepts and skills.  It covers line plots, bar graphs, and pictographs.  Each graph can be printed and laminated, while the student pages (two per page) can be printed for students to record their answers on.

Counting Money Center

I created this activity to help my students practice counting money as well as making change less than $20.  I'm using it this week in my Math centers.  Click the picture below to get your copy.


Listening Center Freebie!

I just posted a Listening Center Freebie over at my blog. It's geared towards 3rd grade, so it has a little more "meat" to it.

Come check it out!


Happy Tuesday! ~Abby

Rdg/LA Activities - Sentences and Parts of Speech

I created this activity to help my kids practice types of sentences:  complete vs. incomplete.  The kids read the sentences and then sort them accordingly.  We needed to review this concept before we started discussing simple and compound sentences.

Here is an activity I created to help my students review parts of speech.  Nouns, pronouns, adjectives, and verbs are reviewed in this activity.

I think introductions are in order...

If you know who said that, I like you already. If you don't, that's okay. You just need a little Albus Dumbledore in your life. :)

I am Abby from Third Grade Bookworm and I am super excited to become part of the team at Me and My (3rd Grade) Gang. I'll be back in a few days with a juicier post, but I wanted to pop in and say hello... at 4:45 am... on a Saturday night... when I can't sleep. :)


Come by and say hello!
