How to Use the Kindergarten Common Core Workbook

How to Use the Kindergarten Common Core Workbook

So we’re selling this wonderful, very extensive workbook, but how do you sort through nearly 650 pages and figure out how to use it, right? Isn’t that what you’re wondering? I mean, what stops this from going on the shelf or in a file folder somewhere like all those other things you are given to use as a resource? It’s a very good question, because even at a reasonable $39 for a download, no one likes to waste money. Here’s how I might suggest you use it:

If you have a district academic plan that requires you to teach certain standards each week, use our searchable index in the front of the workbook. With a mouseclick, you move to the activities and worksheets designed to help teach that standard. Each standard has at least one center and at least 2 worksheets.

If you have a textbook you have to follow, look at the standards being taught in those lessons. Match the standard numbers to the worksheets and resources we offer in our workbook. Print or use them on a whiteboard.

If you have set standards you must follow per week or unit, that’s even easier. Again, just match the numbers and codes up, and you’re ready to go!

Take a look at our free previews, and you’ll see how simple it can be!

What is Common Core?

What is Common Core?

What is Common Core?

The Common Core Standards can be confusing, frustrating, and stressful for teachers, parents, and even the kids. Nearly every state in the country is adopting the common core standards in one fashion or another, but what is common core really?

Common Core is a set of standards designed to make sure that students are receiving a similar education no matter where they live. Previously, certain skills might be taught in one state at different grade level than in another. Students who move from city to city, county to county, or state to state might all be at very different levels because of what was taught and when it was taught! This made for a very uneven testing field.

To combat this, most every state has adapted a common group of core skills that students should learn at age and developmentally-appropriate grade levels. So, a student that lives in one state should be learning similar materials, if perhaps in a different method, than one living in another state. This still leaves room for teacher creativity and regional differences, but the same basic concepts are taught universally.

Read below for more specific details on what standards are being taught at each grade level and how they are organized.

Common Core Ideas

You know, common core does not have to be scary and painful for either teachers or students. If we understand the standards and how they are broken apart, we can attack each piece with fun and exciting ideas. Often, we will find that this is not NEW stuff, but rather a reorganized way to look at what we have already been teaching in years past. Your personal challenge for today (or this week, month, or year…) is to take each of these domains, look at them, and think about your favorite activity that fits into each one. If you can’t think of anything, ask a peer! Then, find lots of other ideas in our common core workbooks.
