Winner Wednesday- Vocabulary Poster Bundle



Did you have a chance to score some great deals at the Back to School sale through Teachers Pay Teachers? I know we filled our carts up with some goodies!  If you didn't stock up on as much as you wanted to, today we are going to give you the chance to WIN one of our Math Vocabulary Bundles.

At one time, I used to believe that math was just about learning how to manipulate numbers to get the correct answer. Was I right? Not so much...

Math has its own unique language, and teaching that language is so important to students' success in math.

Here are the top reasons why we think teaching math vocabulary is so important:
1. Students need to understand the math problems they encounter before they can solve them. What will help your students to understand the problems? Knowing the key terms for the skills they are learning will certainly help them.

2. At some point we will all have the experience of teaching students who are learning English as a second language.  Each year I have 1/3 to 1/2 of my class that fit into this category.  These students especially need access to quality vocabulary instruction because many of these terms will be completely new to them.

3. By teaching our students the meaning of math terms, we are giving them the opportunity to be able to discuss math in a meaningful way. You will be amazed at the types of conversations you will hear coming from your kiddos once they know how to use math vocabulary.

And now on to the fun part!  What can you win from us today?  You can win your choice of a years worth of vocabulary posters to help with your vocabulary instruction.  These posters are made with your students in mind- kid friendly definitions and bright fun graphics to help explain the terms.  As an added bonus they make a beautiful bulletin board display.


Enter the Rafflecopter below to win one of these fabulous vocabulary poster bundles (Kindergarten, 1st Grade, 3rd Grade, or 4th Grade available):

I actually listen ONCE IN A BLUE MOON when he talks "geeky" to me. :) HAHAHAHA!! The Rafflecopter has been corrected.... So sorry about that.

    1. Hi Tina, I'm sorry but we don't have 5th grade covered. I'm not sure if Kelie is planning to include 5th grade materials in her store or not...? If she does I'm sure it won't be for quite some time as she has just started her 4th grade materials. I'm sorry. I will alert Kelie to your comment so she knows to come reply as well. :)
