Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! I am coming to you from our fabulous new house! The kids are playing {so sweetly} in the playroom, hubs is working on the thermostat that we can't figure out ;) and I finally have a little time to sit down and blog! Whew! I thought it might never happen. We've been working on patterns this week in math. Did you know with our new Texas standards patterning is taken out!? Like, good 'ol AB, ABC, AAB etc.... instead, they're supposed to create patterns IN NUMBERS! But...to get there, we have to teach the basics first. First I get the good 'ol rhythm sticks out and we rat-a-tat-tap different combinations of patterns. Then I build patterns with my students {boy boy girl..} and finally we get to play! I found THESE unifix cube pattern sheets for free from Heidi Songs! To check for understanding after the first day of introducing patterns, I did a quick formative assessment of my students learning. The only directions I gave were to draw a patten- I gave them free reign on which type and what they wanted to draw for their pattern. I cut all the names out so no one knew who drew what. Almost all of my students could create their own pattern! And the ones who didn't... were off by JUST a teeny bit. I love sorting examples and non-examples like this to post while we're working on the topic. This week in stations we're going to be adding some more pattern cards to our rotations. This time, I want my students to create their own of a specific type of pattern. Snag these freebie cards up HERE. Happy patterning!

This resource is included in the Family Unit for Elementary English Language Learners-Starters. Click here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Family-Activities-for-Elementary-ELL-1804475 Cognitive and social skills are at play with the board games. Just print the motivating activities as many as you need for 4 students. It comes with golf balls as markers, students will get to chose their favorite color to play. I added an open clip behind each one to make it stand. The board game has a light green and dark green spaces. Depending on where the student lands, he/she will take that color card and answer the question in order to move on the board. This descriptive sentence activity with cards helps with writing rich, detailed sentences. Students will write their sentences first using the cards and putting in as many words or cards as possible. Then, they will write all the sentences and draw /color the person that they described. Using adjectives to write sentences is essential for effective communication, either when writing or speaking. An old family unit domino game that I couldn’t leave behind. Use it as an assessment tool to see how your students can interact and use active vocabulary during gameplay. A matching words and picture quilt. Students will match the family member word, the adjectives tall and short, young and old to each picture in the quilt. You will check their comprehension as they associate the words to the picture. A pocket chart set is here to aid the students to write sentences related to the hair color in each family member. It will promote interaction between peers to complete the sentences. Spelling is a fundamental aspect of written communication. Do this spelling activity with this robot family set of cards. Students will write all the words in Capitals for attention and maybe fun! Place the template with the cards that you want to practice inside a clear plastic sheet and have the students write the words using whiteboard markers in different colors and then erase for future use.

The complete resource for the insects unit is here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Insects-Unit-for-Kindergarten-Holistic-English-Series-18-6984205 Insects Unit cutouts activities for the linguistic competence. The cutouts gives a chance to go deeper into the unit using different materials. Pictures help with understanding. Print the jar template and glue it onto a lunch bag. Play guess what’s in the jar? Teacher: What’s in the jar? Students: a butterfly! Teacher: Yes! That’s right. The jar is fun for speaking! Use the cutouts to make patterns. They are important for the students to be able to describe them in a speaking mode, to reproduce them using the cutouts and to create a new pattern they wish.It's a way to experiment patterns in a new way. They will be able to follow a pattern that you say as well. Students: big bee, small bee, big butterfly, small butterfly. The patterns video: Take a look on how I used the cutouts for big or small. Cutouts same and different. Place several cutouts in a row. The first row will have the same insects. Point and have the students repeat with you. Teacher:ant, ant, ant. They are the same! The second row place a different cutout. Teacher:bee, bee, dragonfly. Which one is different? Students: dragonfly! Place the insects cutouts on the board. Tell the students that all the insects have 6 legs and that you are going to count them together. Circle the legs afterwards. · Where are the insects activities? Use the flashcards to place the cutouts as to where you can find the insects. Here is a small chart that I made up as a guide. Identify the location of an insect. Use and model the word on. Place the cutouts on the flashcard to show where the insects can be found. Teacher: The bee is on the leaf Students: The butterfly is on the leaf. Teacher: Where are the grasshoppers? Students: They are on the grass. Take a look! Do the same using the cutouts instead of the flashcards. Have the students describe the quantity using the numbers. Students: There are five insects on the plant. Do more preposition work with the fireflies jars. Go to the blog post and see it: https://eflpreschoolteachers.blogspot.com/2024/04/fireflies-prepositions.html It is also included in this resource. Use the numbers flashcards for counting insects cuouts! Teacher: How many insects are there? Students: three! Take a look! Just for fun make pencil toppers. Just add a chenille to the cutouts and twist the chenille around the pencil. This would be the craft for this unit. Another idea is to make a beehive using toilet paper tubes inside a tissue box. Have the students match each bee to each space in the beehive. Students: a red bee in the beehive. · Sorting into jars! Print the jars and labels that you want to practice. Sort by shapes. Sort by type of insect. Sort by color. Sort by quantity. · I saw this idea and gave it a try, I have so many old CDs to recycle. I covered each CD with construction paper and added a shape label to each one. I glued all the shapes insets to clothespin and had the students sort them out. I used fun foam letters to have the students write words along each cutout. Use the flashcards to direct what the insects eat. Teacher: This is a butterfly. What does it eat? Students: a flower!

This blog post is about how to use the cutouts. I have seen on many Instagram pictures of teachers that do distance teaching use lots of cutouts. I have used them for years. The book series for Preschool and some Elementary would come with them. It changes the pace of always using flashcards. Here are just a few ideas and along the blog you can check a lot more activities that might suit your class. IDEA 1. Help your students become better readers. I made labels for each cutout. But you can make labels for any community helper cutout that you have or create. IDEA 2. Create puppets just by gluing a craft stick.Use the puppets to introduce new vocabulary in a classroom setting or from your computer. Watch the video. IDEA 3. Review prepositions or positional words. This can be done with young students and with older ones as well. I glued the town building in front of a lunch bag in order to do the preposition IN. The rest of the community helpers cutouts I glued them onto toilet paper rolls. Watch the video on how I used it with all the other prepositions to help students become effective speakers. IDEA 4. If you have pocket charts it is great for children to complete the task at their own pace. If not, the matching can be done on a table or the floor. Students will match the things the community helpers use and the place they work. IDEA 5. Any old file folder can be used to create a game using the cutouts. I did it by cutting the cutouts in half and gluing one half onto the file folder. Students have to match the missing half and say the word. I glued an envelope outside the file folder to keep the matching halves. Watch the video. IDEA 6. I love making crowns. Kids always want something to put on their heads. Review the vocabulary using the crown as they name the community helpers in English, just watch the video.
