FREE Multiplication Facts Booklet

A completed chart, a blank one to fill in, a bonus maze, and an answer key follow. It downloads straight from this site.

FREE 4th Grade Logic Puzzle
4th grade
A real Level 2 puzzle from the 4th grade logic puzzles pack: four friends, four pet names, and three clues. Standard and Assisted versions, with the How to Solve page and the answer key, downloaded straight from the logic puzzles page.
Where it fits: Early finishers, morning work, centers, and indoor recess.
FREE Feelings Check-In
Grades K to 5
Simple ways for students to name how they feel and quietly signal when they need support. Check-in sheets for morning routines, cut-apart slips for daily use, and emotion posters for the wall. Students can point, circle, draw, or write, so it works from kindergarten arrival lines to fifth grade soft starts.
Where it fits: Morning check-ins, SEL lessons, soft starts, and calm-corner routines.
If the style feels right, the word ladders collection is where most teachers go next, and the blog's Schoolhouse shelf shows how these routines run in a real classroom. Everything else lives on the main shop page.
