My newest item in my Teachers Pay Teachers store are these 3 digit math fact cards. I am really excited about using them with my first graders!
There are 12 subtraction cards with answer cards.
There are 12 addition and subtraction mixed cards plus answer cards.
And 12 addition cards and answer cards.
So, 36 cards in all. You can use these with or without the answer cards. They will make a great “matching” activity or take away the answer cards and have students write the answers on a recording sheet. I really think these will be great practice for your first and second graders.. and maybe even third grade too?

Groundhog’s Day is TOMORROW!!
Are you scrambling to find something awesome to do?
If so.. here are a few great things… and they are all FREE!!
FInally in First has a pattern to make a groundhog. We made these today! {We changed it up a bit.. we mounted on blue background paper with black at the bottom to make it look like he was coming out of his burrow.}
Peterson’s Pad has a great little mini groundhog book. I printed these so we could have a great little mini-science lesson on groundhogs. I printed them smaller {4 pages to one page} so they are a great size.
A Cupcake For The Teacher has some fun printables.
Over the MoonBow has the most perfect little graphing header cards. Do not make your own .. when you can grab these! A great timesaver!
I have a HUGE stack of laminating to cut out tonight and a bag full of Valentine “stuff” that I need to sort through and organize. Once we finish Groundhoggin’ we are moving on to Valentine’s Day! {oh yeah.. we gotta squeeze some President’s Day stuff in there too!}
