In the Boxes:
Using the free printables above, here are a few that I added to or tweaked a bit for our boxes (others are just as they were printed).
Instead of dotted dice, I use numbered dice so they have to add, instead of count!
For these subtraction cards, I added earth shaped erasers as manipulatives, I didn’t include the answer cards, instead he can write the answer with dry erase marker!
For younger kids, use this sheet (R) as a magnet page with pompom magnets!
For Life of Fred we are doing counting by 5s, so this was a perfect one to throw in!
I included the cards for the ABC order so he can put them in order and then copy, and he is going to love this cursive copy sheet!
Some science project fun with The Magic School Bus: Going Green and Tedcotoys Recycling Kids Educational Science Activity Kit
Added some M&D stickers to find the Es to accent this page
We are doing some other fun stuff from the free printables listed above! C is going to be surprised I replaced almost every subject with an Earth Day themed activity!
And before Z even knew it was Earth Day, he requested an Earth birthday cake for his birthday…so that will be a project this week too!
What a lot of fun ideas for an "all about me" unit.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and sharing on Throwback Thursday Blog-Style. I can't wait to see what you share this week.
Love the way you planned the preschool curriculum around your older child's curriculum. Seems like something I would do, but a lot more organized.
ReplyDeletemakes it easy....haven't had as much luck doing it this year and next year will prove a bit more difficult. But...it was fun to do it :D And I saved it all for when Baby Girl gets bigger and we cycle back through!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting it! It's be a great help to me to up date the blog.
