FREE MISC. LESSON - “Myths and Mental Makeovers for Secondary School Lessons”
by Ellen Weber
6th - 12th Grade
Myths and mental makeovers for secondary school lessons, will help you replace mental myths with tools for higher motivation and achievement.
Secondary and higher education brain-friendly learning communities can exchange myths for new realities with easy-to-use tools.
For example, it’s commonly held that it’s best to learn a thing before you teach it to others. We now know differently thanks for neuro discoveries, however. Teach others at the time you learn and you will retain far more.
10 such myths tend to limit your students’ brainpower and these mental makeovers listed will help to improve learning as they show brain facts that challenge secondary school myths.
Further instances to exchange myths for realities that improve students’ success:

All materials here involve proven student –lead learning tasks that rewire the brain for higher motivation and achievement:

FREE MATH LESSON - “Teen Numbers With 20 Frame”
by Right to the Core - Kindergarten
Kindergarten - 1st Grade
We have been working on making teen numbers using a large 20 frame. The size of the frame made it fun for whole group and center instruction. The children have started noticing that the teens are ten plus another amount. So, we used this printable to assess individual learning with the 20 frame.

FREE MATH LESSON - “Place Value - I’m Thinking of a Number Set 1”
by MathCoach
1st - 2nd Grade
Place Value: I'm Thinking of a Number - Set 1
This is the first of six different sets of "I'm Thinking of a Number Cards" to use when teaching place value. This set uses only 2 digit numbers.
I use the cards in a small group at first and have them build the number on a place value mat with base ten blocks. We discuss how they determined the number from the clues.
When the activity is moved to a center, students shuffle the cards, draw one card, build the number on their place value charts and then record it on the response sheet.
Included are thirty-six clue cards, a place value mat with tens and ones, and a student response sheet.
Common Core State Standards:
1.NBT.1
2.NBT.1 (for students needing more practice or remediation)
2.OA.3 (for students needing more practice or remediation)

These fun writes are great for students to use when practicing the spelling words, sight words, or for word work. It provides a fun way for students to write their words. Students may choose a fun write or the teacher may assign a one for their students. Teachers can also encourage students to create their own fun write. I also send them home as part of their homework.

This fast-paced game is a great way to for kids to explore with the concept of factors, allowing you to address the Common Core Math Standards within the Grade 4 cluster "Gain familiarity with factors and multiples."

Resources include teacher directions, student directions, a gameboard and spinner, a recording sheet, as well as a resource sheet that students can refer to as they learn the factors of the numbers 1-20.
I hope your students enjoy the game!

FREE MISC. LESSON - “FREEBIE! Student Learning Survey”
by Pencils and Chalk
2nd - 4th Grade
Do you ever face a class of students and wonder what their little minds are thinking? How do they learn? What can I do to motivate them? Do they prefer working alone? How do they view a difficult task?
Using this simple, easy to understand survey, you can gain more insight into each student's learning style, preferences, and fears. Students can write their answers on provided lines, and simple wording is easy for them to understand.
This is most appropriate for 2nd grade and up, or whenever students are able to read independently AND can make intrapersonal observations.
This survey complements my Parent Learning Survey, which you can find here:
