Pirate Math Centers!

Last week, we studied -ar words.  I utilized Babbling Abby‘s wonderful unit Learning /ar/ with Pirate Mark.  Such an awesome unit!  The kids loved the pirate theme so much that I decided to create some pirate themed math centers.  I tried four of them out on Friday and the kids had a blast!

This weekend, I polished up this 49 page, Common Core aligned,  six center packet and it is now for sale on TpT (click {here}) to check it out.

(The coins are Mardi Gras Coins from Dollar Tree!)

This 49 page download is for six different Common Core based, pirate themed, math centers.

Math centers included in this packet:
Skulls and Treasure Chests Ways to Make Five
Skulls and Treasure Chests Sums of Ten
Pirate Make Ten to Add
Pirate Domino Fact Families
Pirate Find the Missing Part
Pirate Art and Math Center – Fact Family Based

Also, included are teacher directions, student directions, photographs, small center signs, work-mats, and printable manipulatives.  The Common Core Standards addressed are listed below the teacher and student directions.

I hope your students enjoy these centers as much as mine did!

🎂Happy 20th Birthday @teacherspayteachers ! I hav 🎂Happy 20th Birthday @teacherspayteachers !

I have been with TpT since 2008!  I remember looking for a place where I could share my computer created resources with other teachers without having to set up my own website.  TpT was suggested.  I started off with a few Microsoft Word created resources 😬. At the time, the founder of TpT, Paul and his brother Dana, were single-handedly running things. I loved getting their newsletters.

In 2009 I was in a NY times article for TpT about who owns the copyright to teacher’s lesson plan ideas…the schools or the teachers.  This was not the article the author or editors told me I would be in, but that is another story! 

I stuck with TpT and creating resources and then in 2011, the site really took off and I met all these other amazing teacher-authors and finally met Paul in real life! 

As a single homeowner on a teachers salary, I worked nights and weekends on TpT resources just to be able to afford to live in my little house.  Then something amazing happened, my hard work paid off and I was able to get myself some breathing room.  I am so grateful for TpT for giving my life purpose and financial freedom back in those days.  Even though I am married now, I am so proud of myself for being able to own that little house (I still have it and rent it out) and buy my forever home in my dream neighborhood all by myself.

So many of you found out about TpT and so many more sellers joined.  It truly became the open market place that Paul envisioned all those years ago. 

TpT is still a big part of my life all these years (and hair colors) later.  I know when I eventually retire from teaching, I will be able to do TpT full time.  I love creating and sharing resources (880 and counting) with all of you.
