Description
Have you ever felt overwhelmed and just needed a minute to catch your breath? Have you ever wondered how you could keep your class busy while you worked one-on-one with a student or small group? I know I have and that's why I created 7 Minute Whiteboard Videos. They are ZERO prep! No copies! No early finishers! No grading! The best part is, kids LOVE them!
These videos offer a quick, no-prep review that your students are going to love! Each student needs a whiteboard, marker, and eraser. They are a wonderful resource for in-person AND distant learning.
This set includes a variety of skills and is a great review for your first graders. Videos currently included are-
⚓Blasting Blends - A cannon blasts a hole in the side of a ship and we can't read the word that was on it. A blend has been smashed, but we do have some clues. There is a picture of the word on the sail and a cute little jolly roger flag tells us what it is. Can your students write the missing blend on their boards before it is revealed?

⚓Complete Sentences - Pirates aren't very good at writing sentences! They hold up scrolls with sentences they have written and read the sentence to your kids. Your kids will decide if they are complete sentences or not. They are checking for capital at the beginning and punctuation at the end for each sentence. Click here to see it!
⚓Hooked on Helping Verbs - These pirates have poor grammar skills! "We be swabbing the deck!" "I be looking for treasure." "He be walking the plank." Each sentence in this set needs the word be to be replaced with is, am, or are. It is all read aloud for firsties that are not yet independent readers. Click here to see an example from this video.
⚓Arrrrrrrrr Controlled Vowels - Pirates love to say "ARRRRRR"! In this video, we see two pirates. One says a word with the /ar/ sound and the other says a word with a different r-controlled vowel. Your students must write the word with the /ar/ sound on their boards before we see the correct answer and read it in our best pirate voices. Click here to check it out!
⚓Sight Words in a Bottle - Pirates aren't very good at spelling. We see two sight words, one is spelled correctly and the other is wrong. Your students have to write the correct one one their boards before the answer is shown. Our captain has no patience for misspelling and makes the bottle with the wrong word walk the plank!

⚓Story Problems with 3 Addends - The pirates found three treasure chest. Each contains some precious gems. Your students will create addition problems to show how many gems there are in all. Each problem is narrated for students who aren't independent readers. Click here to see it!
⚓Solve it! Draw it! (Addition to 20) - Directed drawing with a fun, math twist! Solve the math equation and draw the picture that matches your answer. Your kids will draw a pirate with this one. Click here to check it out!
⚓Color Hunt - Get your spyglass ready to hunt for treasure! When you find it, remember what color it was. I love this because it has a word bank for kids to copy color words and when they check, they spell the word with the board. Such great practice learning to read and spell color words, but the treasure hunt is sure to be a hit with your kids! Click here to check it out!
⚓Pirate Directions - Use the compass rose to help the ship get to the treasure. Write which direction the ship needs to go next. Click here to see a preview of this fun video!
⚓Ship Shapes (2D Shapes) - Watch for pirate ships and if you spot them, remember what shape their sails were. This one is so fun and great practice with 2D shapes. Click here to see it!
⚓Comparing 2-Digit Numbers - We see two little pirate friends on plank as a shark circles the waters below. They are holding signs with two-digit numbers. Your students have to write the numbers and compare them with <, >, and = signs before the shark jumps out of the water and his jaws form the correct sign.

⚓Buried Treasure (Counting by 10s to 120) - "The pirates buried 9 treasure chests. There are 10 coins in each chest. How many coins are there in all?" Your kids have time to write it before we get a peek underground and practice skip counting by 10 as we check our answers. Click here to see a quick preview of this video.
