Painting Art: Fingerprint Flower Garden.
By Art Shack by JB
Need an awesome Art Unit? I have just the thing for you! This creative Fingerprint Flower Garden Scene was designed to be printed and displayed as examples while you teach. Use this Google Slide file to display these beautiful images one-by-one on a large screen. For this assignment, I asked students to use their pointer finger (no paint brush) to create the flower pedals. Students filled the paper with fingerprint flowers for one class period. During the second-class period, students used crayons and color markers to draw stems, leaves, grass, insects, and other things in their scene. I hope you and your kiddos love this! Enjoy.

Back to School Morning Meeting Work | Slides Template
By Professional Development and Teacher Prep
Do you need Morning Meeting Slides in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 5th Grade to save you time and stress? Do you want it all in one place? Are you wanting to reduce behavior issues and raise engagement levels? These Morning Meeting activities were a game-changer in my classroom and led us to have the best year ever! My students were engaged, and well-behaved, and I had so much less stress! This is because we built really strong relationships and connections with each other which led to fewer disruptions and toxic stress.
This bundle is all of my Paperless Morning Work and PowerPoints bundled together for you!
The bundle includes:
By Professional Development and Teacher Prep
Reading and math centers are an important part of many elementary classrooms. As teachers, it can be challenging to ensure that our students are on task during center time. One way to help with this is by using paperless morning meeting center rotation slides.
Center Rotation Slides
Using paperless morning meeting center rotation slides with a timer helps structure and focus students’ center time while providing necessary support to help them complete tasks independently during reading centers or math centers. Slides provide visuals and clear directions that students can follow along, allowing them to access information easily. Additionally, the timer lets the students know when they need to move on from one task to another so they don’t get overwhelmed or bogged down in one activity for too long. This helps keep their minds engaged throughout center time and encourages them to work at a productive pace.
Reading Centers or Math Centers
In addition, having visual prompts throughout the slide presentation is helpful for younger learners who may need more support completing tasks independently during reading centers and math centers. You can insert clipart or images from Google to help students who cannot read what the center is.
Another important aspect of the timer is that it will hold you accountable for your guided math and guided reading groups. It will keep you focused and intentional with the group you are with and allow you time to meet with all of your groups.
There are 15-minute timers, 12-minute timers, and 10-minute timers that can be used for reading or math centers. Delete the slides that you do not need. If you need more than four rotations, you can duplicate the slide. If you need more than four groups, duplicate the bar, create more squares, and move or make the timer smaller.
Overall, using a slide presentation with a timer during reading and math centers can be incredibly beneficial for both teachers and students alike! It keeps everyone organized and provides direction so that learning objectives are met in an effective manner. So why not give it a try today?
Timers for 5 Minutes
There are additional timers for 5 minutes in the slides for cleaning transitions, shorter center time, buffer time between subjects or a special, a challenge, group or independent work.
Timers for 3 Minutes
Finally, there are timers for 3 minutes in the slides for other transitions throughout the day. You can duplicate the slide to insert a new timer from Youtube if needed or easily edit the slides.
