I can't even believe May is almost here…. time flies in the spring! This might just be my favorite time of year to teach kindergarten.
Easy, simple spring crafts for toddlers to make and do with you at home so that you can get creative together all season long.
Here's a "Spring Pencil Walk" that I hope your children will enjoy this week. Story symbols can help children develop top to bottom and left-to-right orientation. They’re also an engaging way to develop small motor skills. These stories should be told multiple times so children can practice the pre-writing strokes and feel more competent. You might want to do the same story every day for a week as you invite the children to recall what will come next. *Make a tape of the story to put in a listening center. Hint! Demonstrate these stories on the board or a large chart so children will be able to copy what you do on white boards or clip boards. A SPRING WALK Let’s put a green dot at the top of the page to show us where to start. And let’s put a red dot down here at the bottom to show where our story will stop. Pick up your pencil and let’s use it to tell a story. It’s a beautiful spring day, so let’s go for a walk. The grass is growing nice and tall. The sun is shining in the sky. The clouds are rolling around. The insects buzz up and down. The little rabbits hop around. The kites are flying in the air. All of a sudden, the wind starts to blow. The wind is blowing in every direction. Better run home as fast as we can! Home at last! https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1SnEagA4jljc0J0SF95WHZnS2s/view?usp=sharing Here's another story about a walk in the zoo. Can you guess what the different symbols represent? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1SnEagA4jljY0FscXBmekxxSDg/view?usp=sharing
Listening skills are so important! Before you can effectively teach procedures and academic skills, your students need to listen and attend to what you are saying. Spring themed listening skills activities called "Listen and Draw" are included in this latest edition. DIFFERENTIATION I recommend doing this as a teacher directed activity in the beginning. You may want to introduce this in a small group setting if your class has a wide range of abilities. You can give different groups different expectations for the writing assignment portion of the activity. There is an extra writing page included for your students who are ready to write a paragraph or story about the picture. TECHNOLOGY CONNECTION Once your students are comfortable with the format, you can record the directions or ask a parent volunteer to do it for you. Or ask the drama department at your local middle school or high school if there is a student who is interested in doing this for you. Students are often looking for community service opportunities. After each step, either pause to give students time to do the work or use some type of noise maker like a bell or xylophone. Tell your students to push the “stop” button when he/she hears the sound. Push the “go” button after he/she follows the directions and is ready for the next step. MANY USES: This can be used many different ways. WRITING CENTER: Record the directions and set it up as a center. EMERGENCY SUB PLANS: Great activity for your sub. R.T.I. DOCUMENTATION: Great way to show proof of listening skills growth over time for R.T.I. INSIDE RECESS - FRIDAY FUN DAY: Students will love the art part of these activities. You will love the fact that your students are quiet so they can listen to the directions. This packet includes 12 Listen and Draw activities with a spring theme. For each activity there is: -Teacher direction page -Blackline student page -Colorful page showing what the art portion of the listening activity could look like. Art work answers may vary. Here is a sneak peek at a few of the pages: Weather is often taught in the spring. Use this activity to extend your science lesson. Spring time means it is time for Little League. This baseball theme lesson the perfect spring time lesson. This plant themed assignment will enrich your science lessons. Easter is right around the corner. You can use this to prepare your students for tests because students need good listening skills in order to do well on the test. Add this Earth Day listen and draw activity to your lesson plans. It is a great extension. Click HERE if you'd like to see more. Would you like to try a FREE sample? Click on the picture below.

originally published 4-10-13 For our Preschool@Home this week our theme is KITES! LB(3) and I did this fun little activity and it's SO easy to make, check it out! Prep Work: Cut 5 kite shapes (diamonds) out of construction paper Write numbers 1-5 on them. Trace one of them on the right side of a white piece of paper. Then draw a string coming off the kite on the paper, And a cloud in the sky. :) Cut 5 bow shapes out of construction paper How to Play: Sit down with your child and demonstrate how to play. Put one of the kites on the paper. Then count out that number of bows as you place them on top of the kite string. Then have them try! LB(3) enjoyed playing this game. He is big into counting these days, and while he can easily count past five, this is a useful skill to practice using something tactile to count out. HAVE FUN! (this post contains affiliate links)

It's almost Spring - though we are expecting our first big snowfall of the season this weekend... Yikes! Regardless, I love Spring and the fun topics that come with the season. Here's a peek into some of the activities we use to teach about plants and weather. Be sure to grab the freebie at the end of each section! After reading some books and watching some videos on plants, we create this brace map for what plants need, what they have, and what they are. We learn about the parts of a plant and do some labeling. We also learn about the life cycle of a plant before we prepare to grow our own! Through the course of our plant unit, the kids will get to sprout their own lima beans and grow marigolds (either one as a class in a clay pot or individually in small cups!) Before we plant our marigolds, we will get our hands into a soil exploration. We also do some learning about plant needs to prepare them for caring for their plants. I love these little flipbooks with a sentence starter! Then we'll learn about the steps for growing a flower with this chart. We also do some how-to writing on this topic. In addition to growing their own flowers, the kids will each sprout their own lima beans in a plastic bag. We make these cute little garden templates to frame the plastic bags and so kids can easily identify their seeds. And they make observations in a little journal as their seed begins to grow. And of course a unit wouldn't be complete without some fun station activities that review math and literacy skills. Grab these two game boards for FREE to practice addition and subtraction fact fluency within 5! All of these activities are available in my Plant Unit on TPT! Click the image below to get a better look! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We learn a LOT in our weather unit. We learn about the different kinds of weather, the seasons, what meteorologists do, and the clouds! We make this cute little poem/craft with cotton balls as we learn about the different kinds of clouds. Then students get to observe the clouds and record their observations in their cloud journals. We read the book "It Looked Like Spilt Milk" and then draw our own clouds with white crayon on blue construction paper. These make a great class book or hallway display! And of course we HAVE to read Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs!! We learn a little poem about food falling from the sky and write about what foods we would and would not want to rain down! We also learn about temperature and how we can use the weather predictions to prepare ourselves (what we should wear, pack with us, plan for activities, etc.). We love to get out thermometers and measure different temperatures (inside/outside/in water). We observe the weather every day for a week and write our observations in our journals. In March in Indiana, the weather can vary a lot from day to day! And we do lots of fun activities during our stations time! You can grab these two color by code sheets for free! There is one for addition within 10 and one for subtraction within 10! Click here to grab them or click the images! And of course, all of these activities are available in my Weather Unit on TPT! Happy almost Spring!!!

During spring and the Easter holiday, Bible teachers typically introduce or review Jesus' death, burial and resurrection in Bible class. While this lesson speaks to my heart and helps me to understand all that Jesus has done for us, I sometimes struggle with teaching this topic to children. Using this Jesus Resurrection craft along with
I am going to begin this blog post with a bit of discomfort - one single word; contentious. While the celebration of Easter is not controversial, for some of my families it is certainly debatable and disputable. As we sing songs about eggs and use rhythm eggs and other spring music, I do not want my Hindu, Buddhist, and Jewish children to look like this as we sing songs about spring that they might interpret as being about Easter: As a Christian I must put aside my feelings about the meaning of Easter yet still honor the spirit and joy of the holiday. I love contrast; light/dark, joy/sadness, minor/major, etc. In that vein, and needing a few more activities this time of year that celebrate symbols of the season yet are not overtly about "Easter", I wrote a couple songs yesterday. The first, Bunny Run, is in minor! A song about a bunny in minor? YES!!! This one includes an optional created B Section using Haiku poems. The second, Bunny Rabbit (original title, right?) is pentatonic and includes options for the B section using instruments. Enjoy!!
