Birthday Board + a Freebie

 I would love to celebrate my students' birthdays with a fun, festive Birthday Board, so I am preparing cupcakes for my classroom. I don't know exactly how would it look like. If you have some good ideas, or pictures of your chart, I would be glad to hear it, see it and try it. I made this birthday card today. If you like it and/or need it, click on the picture and download it for free.

FREE Woodland Animal Patterning Activity

Hi there! Just wanted to share a few ideas for teaching patterns and my latest freebie I made for my kiddos this week! Understanding patterns is an important mathematical concept.
