KINDER CRAZE
March 22, 2021 By Maria Manore Gavin 1 Comment. As a busy mom of two young children, I know the value of simple activities that are quick to set up and keep children engaged. Even better is when an activity helps reinforce an academic skill like letter recognition. My daughter Dessa is now three years old and technically "preschool" age (even SOLID FIGURES: MANIPULATIVES, WORKSHEETS AND A FREEBIE! Solid Figures: Manipulatives, Worksheets and a FREEBIE! May 12, 2012 Maria Manore Gavin 17 Comments. My students have been learning about solid figures and using some really great resources in the classroom. We began the unit of study by creating a chart of the six basic solid figures (cone, sphere, cube, pyramid, cylinder, and rectangularprism.)
THREE EASY WEB TOOLS AND IDEAS! Here are my top three favorite web 2.0 tools to use (that are easy as pie!) along with some teaching ideas: 1. Beeclip. I believe that Beeclip is SO versatile and easy to use that your students will have no problem with it. If you’ve ever made a scrapbook before, you will be able to use this program. CLASSROOM LIBRARY ORGANIZATION Classroom Library Organization – Simplified. The library and reading area is an essential part of any classroom. Especially in kindergarten and the younger grades. This is the time when a love for words, books, and reading is sparked in children. This is a LENTEN INTERACTIVE SIGHT WORD READER FREEBIE I have a wonderful freebie to share with you on this Sunday evening an Interactive Sight Word Reader about the season of Lent. Like all Interactive Sight Word Readers, this six-page book is an emergent reader with simple repetitive text. Each sentence in this book is missing the word “of” as it explains several symbols of the Lentenseason.
DOT MARKER NAME TRACING: A SIMPLE ART ACTIVITY FOR Materials Needed. The setup for this dot marker name tracing is truly as simple as it looks and only takes about 60 seconds. I grabbed a set of Crayola markers, our all-time favorite Do-A-Dot Markers (I store mine in a container like this for easy organization on our craft shelf), and a sheet of paper. A standard sheet of 8.5×11″ paper would work in a pinch for short names, but if your STAINED GLASS KITE DECORATIONS MADE FROM TISSUE PAPER Like all my stained glass art projects, this craft required only 3 materials: construction paper, tissue paper squares, and clear contact paper.Students will also need scissors at the end of the project. I wanted the kites to be BIG and make a bold statement in my classroom windows, so I cut the 1/2″ frame for each kite from a 12×18″ sheet of black construction paper. CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT PHRASES FOR TEACHERS Seasoned elementary teachers really do have the BEST expressions that they use in the classroom to manage their students. I shared some of my favorite quotes from teachers on the blog last month and Kinder Craze fans begged me to keep sharing the quotes on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Tumblr.Today, I am thrilled to share my February roundup of #kindercatchphrase expressions from CELEBRATING A Q AND U WEDDING IN KINDERGARTEN A few days before the wedding, the class worked together to create a special “white carpet” just like in a real wedding. We unrolled a long sheet of butcher paper and each child decorated the carpet by writing Q and U with a dot marker. Here you can see the completed carpet as the kindergarten students anxiously await the wedding. FREE MOTHER'S DAY EMERGENT READER ON EDUCENTS FREE Mother’s Day Emergent Reader on Educents.

MATCHSTICK CROSS PROJECT This is a very simple project that only requires a few supplies. Each child will need: a box of 300 matchsticks. a pre-cut cross template (copied onto cardstock) a pop can tab. glue. The glue can get pretty messy, so I place all materials on a piece of wax paper labeled with the child’s name. The wax paper helps the cross pop easily off after SHARING LENTEN LOVE WITH GOOD DEEDS Each child also receives a Good Deeds chart. The chart show the image of a large, colorless stained glass window with empty spaces. Each time a child performs a Good Deed, he or she colors a space on the chart.
