Rhyming Socks and others

With Dr. Seuss week this week we have been doing a LOT of rhyming! We have been reading all the classics.  We enjoyed Pajama Day as we read the Sleep Book.  Today we read a Wocket in my Pocket. It was fun to see all the wockets the kids brought in their pockets.  Tomorrow, is our last day of the week so we are having a Parent Breakfast with Green Eggs and Ham.  Even the Cat in the Hat is coming to visit. :) I love to see the kids' face when they see the Green eggs and ham.  It's so cute.
Well with all the rhyming I made so socks to match as we read Fox in Socks.  I created 10 different matching sock pairs.  The kids just match them up and then hang them on their clothesline.  I just took a long piece of yarn and taped it to the back to of two chairs and spread them apart to make a clothesline.  The kids hang them up with clothespins. They love it!  It's the new popular work box. 
Here is a picture of this product you can get it on TPT. 


 
I also finished up my writing center for March.  I love using these because the kids can just find the words and write them in the correct spot. It's better than just copying the word because they have the picture there to help them refer to it later!


 
Also, here is my word stacking Freebie. I talked about how to play this game in my Cups, cups, cups post recently.  I didn't post the recording sheet.  The kids ABSOLUTELY LOVE this word work box.  They love to stack them up.
 
 
 
One more fun Math center!  The kids do Math boxes as one of the Guided Math rotations.  I have 25 different work boxes.  These are individual activities. I let most of the kids pick their own box but for those that need extra help in select areas I pick their box for them. 
Here is one of my favorite math boxes. 
It's Number Pancakes.

 The kids flip for joy when completing this box. I have number pancakes 1-50.  I have 4 different recording sheets that go with this.  The one you see is the blank pancakes where students fill and write the number.  There is one with numbers 1-25 in each pancake and the students color the number they flip.  I also have a recording sheet with number words.  Student flip a number and then color the number word.  Addition and subtraction sheets are also available.  There are lots of ways to play this game. You can use it all year!
