Cinco de Mayo Freebies

May 5th is Cinco de Mayo and I've created a couple of freebies to help you celebrate. I'm in the middle of my Countries Around the World Unit. We've already started learning all about Mexican traditions. Last week we made paper mache pinatas. It was fun and MESSY! They were still a little wet on Friday, so I thought I would wait until Monday to paint and stuff. I'll try to post pictures latter.
Skippyjon Jones is a must read! Click  the cover for a free online version of the book. I also created an inferring vocabulary to go with the book. I made two versions. The first version allows you to choose any words from the book to infer meaning with. In the second version, I chose a few Spanish words from the book for students to infer the meaning of using context clues. Click  the picture for a free copy.

And last but not least, I've created a Cinco de Mayo Math Mat. All you need to add is a small baggie of colored candy. My students have really enjoyed the other ones I've made for celebrations. This one hasn't been classroom tested, so please let me know if there are any mistakes and I'll fix them. Click  the picture for your free copy.

Good luck as you continue to create magic in your classroom!
