I'd love for you to check out my new site -cognitivecardiowithmsmm.com

I have to head off to take my son to college in a few minutes, but before I do, I wanted to share this Footloose freebie!

Click to download from TPT

This is a Footloose game to help students practice finding areas and perimeters of rectangles. This
Footloose game includes 30 question cards that require students to: calculate area and perimeter of rectangles: find missing sides; find perimeter when given area and a side length; compare areas and perimeters of rectangles.

When playing Footloose, students solve every problem and record their answers in the corresponding box on the Footloose grid that they each receive.

Differentiation and the Brain - Introduction

It's summer-time and time to get some reading done! Myself and my Tools for Teaching Teens collaborators are going to read and review Differentiation and the Brain, How Neuroscience Supports the Learner-Friendly Classroom , by David A. Sousa and Carol Ann Tomlinson.We will each be reviewing different chapters, and those blog posts will be linked together as we go. If you're interested in learning more about this book, check back and follow the links to the different chapters:) I'm going to give a quick review of the book introduction here, and then later today I'll be reviewing Chapter 1.

The Integer Operations Color by Number (freebie), as well as most of my other color by numbers are more structured, but so much fun for me to make! Computerized doodling! Anyone else
