I spend a lot of my own time making materials for my classroom to fit my students' needs, just as you do. I like that part of my job that lets me be creative, but sometimes I just don't have the energy or the time after school or on the weekend to make those creative juices flow! Sound familiar?
I've found a ready made product that is going to help on those slump times when you need a quality activity but don't have the time to make it yourself. (I don't take advantage of all the products publishers and companies want me to promote, but if I think it's helpful and practical for the classroom, then I'm always glad to share.)
The new Common Core Task Cards published by Carson Dellosa come in a box of fifty Math cards AND fifty Language Arts cards! Each card lists the standard on the back so you can choose the cards to put in your stations that match the skills you are targeting for the week OR give to individual students for extra practice and reinforcement or intervention activities. The standard-specific activities can also be used as quick bell-ringer or warm-up activities to help you review throughout the year.
Carson Dellosa has also provided a resource guide with an answer key, standards matrix, and task card recording sheets for both students and the teacher. You can access that by clicking {HERE}. Scroll down to the Center Solutions Task Cards Resource Guides appropriate for your grade level for a sneak peek. Click {HERE} to see a video for more info.
You can win your own set of the Center Solutions Task cards by entering the Rafflecopter Giveaway below. Carson Dellosa is adding a set of their Common Core Thinking Mats to the lucky winner! Click {HERE} to watch a video on the mats.

Math is Elementary
I'd use the math and share the ELA with my teaching partner

Moving from second to first. These would be so helpful!
DeleteSo need a good Common Core start!
ReplyDeleteMy grade-level partner and I would use these for differentiation in our Math and Literacy blocks! They're great for giving students choices. I'd make the task cards a square on my Block Bingo Board, where students choose four out of 16 activities to accomplish in the Block. :) Thanks, Mary!
ReplyDeleteI would use these cards for centers and fast finishers!
ReplyDeleteWould use the cards for centers! =)

I would use the cards for fast finishers, centers, skill development and even a quick time filler. They look like an awesome resource! Thanks for the opportunity to win them! Sara (smeyer06@yahoo.com)
ReplyDeleteI would use these as time fillers, breaks, and in groups. These would be awesome since I am self contained next year and haven't done math in a few years.

I use task cards daily. We use them as games such as Scoot. My main use of task cards is during center rotations. The students have center notebooks and they complete the task cards in their notebooks. This works really well and no worksheets!!!
ReplyDeleteI will be teaching 3rd grade. Last year I taught Kindergarten. I have been seeing task cards on a lot of sites lately and I want to give them a try. I have 3 ways that I want to use them...in the morning during morning work, during center rotations, or as a early finisher/enrichment activity.
ReplyDeleteI would use these in centers and games for review or practice.
ReplyDeleteI would use these as guided practice under the document camera. Thanks for the opportunity:). I hope you are enjoying your summer.
