Less than $5 2nd Grade Problem Solving Activities (by price, low to high)

This is a great sheet for following directions and coming up with a strategy to follow those directions. It checks reading comprehension and knowing left and right as well. I use it with 6th graders to show how important carefully following directions can be. It could easily be used with younger grades or possibly older grades as well.

Move your mastery meter from "empty" to "full" as you use the chart to find expert peer tutors in your class. By the end of the semester, students' skills will improve through the use of peer tutoring. Easy to follow directions with lined chart.

This exciting worksheet is all about the many feelings we experience! Get ready to be an artist, a detective, and a storyteller!

Here's what kid'll do:

1. Become a Face Artist! Look at the blank face on the page. Imagine different feelings and emotions. Use crayons or markers to draw what a happy face might look like, or a sad face, or even a surprised one!
2. Word Detective! See those words below the faces? Trace the letters with a pencil to learn how to spell words like "happy," "sad," and "surprised."
