I don't know about all of y'all (that's how we say it in the south), but common core has really pushed me as a teacher this year! I am LOVING it but that is not to say that EVERYDAY seems like a challenge! I am constantly looking for new ideas, new resources, and pulling from oldies! I love the thinking that I am seeing take place with my 5 year olds every day! Not only can they do the work and solve the problems, but they can EXPLAIN what they are doing using MATHEMATICAL vocabulary! It's amazing! I have plenty of math centers but I have been in search for new math centers. I have searched the internet and finding kindergarten resources has been difficult! So, I decided to make my own centers, workmats, and number sense flashcards! I have put together a 122 page unit that addresses many standards (listed on each activity)! There are great games, center activities, math work mats (for those sweet visual babies that organize everything), and flashcards (can also be used in a game of Memory). I know my students are going to LOVE all of these new activities. You can purchase this AWESOME unit at my TPT store by clicking here.
I hope you find this unit helpful. I would love to hear about some of the fun common core activities that you are doing in your classroom! I would love to give away a unit to the best answer of how Common Core is changing your classroom!!!!
Also, I hope everyone has a fabulous and THANKFUL Thanksgiving!

Common Core is changing my classroom because the students are now applying what they are learning and showing me that they are understanding the concept through journals, discussions, and their writing!
