TpT Math Curriculum Available!

Soon schools all over the country will be starting--some already have. Whether schooling at home or in a classroom, teachers are sure to be scurrying around putting together final touches on lesson plans. 

Over the summer, I've been painstakingly putting together a 1st Grade Math curriculum of my own for my special needs 1st grader. As a homeschooling teacher, you always do your best to find the most inexpensive route and one that fits your child's needs. I needed a curriculum that would cover the math without the large amount of worksheets and problems that can come with most curriculum. Last year's Horizon's Kindergarten Math curriculum was fantastic. My son and I loved the colorful worksheets but there were too many for my ADHD son to sit through. In fact, by the end of the school year, we still had not finished all the worksheets. 

My 1st Grade Curriculum covers 16 weeks the first semester. Packets are divided up by week, with each Weekly Packet available individually in my TpT Store. Each packet contains 4 or 5 worksheets, with 99% of the worksheets only 1-sided. For further review, you can also purchase my 1st Semester Review Sheets and Tests. This packet contains 12 weekly reviews and 4 tests.

Of course, those wanting to purchase the entire curriculum should take advantage of my BUNDLED curriculum! 1st Grade Math Curriculum - 1st Semester is now available for purchase, 25% of the total price of all individual packets. For $60, you can receive all 16 weeks (well over 65 worksheets), 12 review sheets, 4 tests, and monetary flashcards (from weeks 15 & 16). 

And, as always, keep an eye out for any new products!
Enjoy!

New Resources

Summertime is a wonderful reprieve from having to teach. Still, as a homeschooling teacher who creates her own lesson plans--and occasionally curriculum--I remain very busy during the summer. Below are some packets and lessons I've been working on.

Teachers Pay Teachers

The newest feature to present to you is my TpT store. Teachers Pay Teachers is a wonderful website designed by teachers and for teachers. It contains many lessons, activities, packets, worksheets, clipart, and more that you can purchase. There are also many FREE items for download.

This year I'm creating a 1st Grade math curriculum for my youngest son. The first semester's worth of packets is up for purchase. You can purchase each week separately, or pick and choose what packets to purchase based on your need. 

My Game Board Number Line is also available for FREE. Click the image below to visit my TpT store:

I also have various Biblical packets available. Our first week will be spent studying the Days of Creation. Since both of my boys benefit from visual learning, I created this fabulous, colorful Days of Creation packet with flashcards, posters, worksheets, memory cards, and more.

There are many other wonderful packets to choose from. And, of course, more will be added as I create them.

Fun Lesson Plans

Our Days of Creation lessons are not just going to be the ordinary Biblical lessons. I've chosen to interweave scientific lessons throughout each lesson. For instance, when learning about the sky, the boys will be introduced to the various atmospheres above the earth. On Day 5, when we learn about the birds and the fish, we'll explore the interesting facets of woodpeckers. 

Of course, this is only a sampling of what we'll cover. I also have Greek and Roman Civilization lessons to prepare the boys for future New Testament Bible lessons. 

Art lessons are being integrated, as well, and I'm really looking forward to those. 

While I'll hate to lose my free time that comes with summer, I look forward to teaching my boys once again.
