This week after parent teacher conferences, I asked the parents to leave video message for their children. It only took few minutes. The video will be included in their eBooks at the end of the year.

iLeap Touch Spot Addition

Last week, while working with one of my struggling students I found that she doesn't have the fine motor skill to use her fingers to count and add.  She was much more successful with two color counters. Since counters are not always readily available, like fingers, I sought out an intervention that would be available to her all the time. Our school resource teacher suggested iLeap's Touch Spot Addition. Once she learns the touch points they will always be available to her. I am hopeful that this app will help her learn the touch points independently. I am excited to give it a try.

Create Math Worksheets

It's hard to find a ready-made worksheet that target the exact skills you are working on. This website creates worksheets to your specifications. I just created a worksheet with 10 as the first addend and numbers less than ten for the second addend. It took me less than 5 minutes and didn't cost me anything.  Hop on over for your own dynamically created worksheets!
