A little known fact about me is that one of my dreams is to be a teacher, along with counselor (which is what I'm studying to be), artist, author, singer, and about a million more things. My roommate (and best friend!) is a fourth grade teacher who rocks!! Let's call her Miss C. Miss C so graciously uses some of the... things... I make her for her class or the few ideas that I suggest. Let's be real -- I live vicariously through her and her job. Whew, okay we're good now. So back to the freebies. Miss C is apart of a community called Teachers Pay Teachers where teachers contribute their lesson plans, printables, units, tests, quizzes, etc. either for a small price (i.e. $1, $3, etc.) or for free. Yep, I said it again. Free. What a beautiful word to happily frugal people! As everyone knows, Pinterest is chalk-full of great free printables for just about everything. So, I've decided that every printable, for now, that I make I'll offer up for others to use here on my blog and eventually on Teachers Pay Teachers. Yay!!
First up:
Math Corner Board Work

I found the idea for this on Pinterest, but I tweaked it to fit Miss C's needs. I laminated the page so that all Miss C has to do is tape it to her 'Board Work' section of her board and use an Expo marker to add the numbers everyday. Easy peasy lemon squeasy! Now, Miss C will always have a math portion of board work every morning. Side note: to make extra special, try printing it on colored paper!
Multiplication Bingo

Who doesn't love Bingo? No one, I tell ya! So, Miss C needed an extra center for Math and wanted to let her students play Bingo with multiplication facts. Her students are stuck on their 8's and 9's. Therefore, this is Multiplication Bingo with ONLY 8's and 9's.
How to play:
There are five bingo cards (I suggest laminating them if you want more than one use out it) and one answer sheet. One of the Bingo cards and the answer sheet is shown above. Cut out all of the answer sheet's squares and shuffle them. Have the 'caller' call out the multiplication operation (i.e. 9 x 0), not the actual answer! The answers are arranged like in the normal Bingo game so that when the caller checks the player's board, no cheating can occur. Yes! Easier explanation: if the caller calls out '9 x 0' the ONLY answer is B 0. It could not be I 0, N 0, G 0, or O 0 -- only B 0. You can use traditional 'chips' or cut-out circles yourself, but Miss C is going to let them use Expo markers which is such a perk to laminating these puppies! To make extra special, try printing these on colored paper.
So, there you have it, folks, the first teacher prints post of what I hope to be many. Feel free to reproduce, share, and most importantly USE!
