Seuss 2021

Here are some of my Seuss books I personally own:

This year I have three different spots for books:

*my loft

*carpet area

*second room (my room is split in half by bathrooms)

Each day we have a dress up day with coordinating snacks lol

each day focuses on a different book.

Matching game

I have several of these sets, to make sure that when they get mixed lol

I can sort them out. Typically I just squiggle down before I cut, but apparently I forgot my own tip!

I grabbed some red mini cups and index cards from Dollar Tree.

I cut the cards in half. The children will try to stack a cup on top of a card.

If I had more cups, I might do a chart about how much they could stack.

I took the hat from here.

Here's a store bought matching game.

Here are lacing cards.

I think I found these alphabet bulletin board 

letters from Target. I use fabric letters.

The children place the fabric letters on the 

bulletin board letters.

I used white-out to cover some letters.

They have to find the cards to see what 

letters I "erased" and trace the rest.

I have Seuss pencils for this activity of course!

Floor puzzle

Bingo dauber sheet from here.

 Here are tons more of my past Seuss celebrations:

Here's my Pinterest board:

S is for Seuss

Monthly Drawers February week 2

 Week 2 morning bins

I wrote on craft sticks with purple and dark pink: number, word, and dots.

The children put that many bands on the stick.  (Look familiar? we did it before, but we used blue, purple, and white bands lol)

The bands are from Oriental Trading.

I love these tracing packs from here.

Sometimes, I print on colored paper, sometimes, 

we use fun colored markers!

Lacing shapes from Target.

Heart shaped beads on a pipe cleaner.

I am asking them to make a pattern.

Letter match.

I pulled out the purples and reds to mark the matching letter.

Morning Bins

Here are our morning bins for the week:

Making /s/now flakes  from here.

I split the cards into three bins, 

so each child has some to work with.

Last year, I would have partners to share a bin.

Here are some ice cube snowball count

I used white pom-poms and 

the ice cubes are from Dollar Tree.

I love mini erasers.

I literally take the drawer out of my storage chest,

and plop it in the bin.

Each drawer has their own set because they are all so cute,

I can use them ALL!!

I made these and I will post them in my store soon.

I got a new computer so I am not sure were the file is now lol

Cutting Sample 

I printed out enough to fit the themes for the year.

I feel a blog post coming on about my monthly binder.

The children trace with the high lighter  and then cut it out on the line.

I still have to remind them not to cut the end- so this week you will hear 

"Don't cut my coffee cup and spill my coffee!!" 

They giggle and then tease me about cutting the cup lol

We are still working on not cutting them though doh!

Dental Health Week

I have three areas in my room for books:

Oh lawt!!! I've never had a whole shelf to myself!!!

Cavity Count from here

Roll number cube and put that many dots on teeth.

Brush them off again while rolling the number cube.

 

Write and brush

pick a tooth and write the number or letter on the 

tooth and erase it with the toothbrush. 

Dental clips from here.

We use clothes pins to count the number on each card.

Trace and erase from here.

Pom pom sort on toothbrushes from here.

Smashing Cavities (like Smashing Pumpkins lol) 

I am going to have the kids roll dough

and place on top.

When it's filled, they can smash them down.

Teeth Math Game

Dough again.  Roll dough into a ball. 

Roll the number cube, cover the number with the dough ball 

and place it on a tooth. 

When I taught kindergarten, my students

lost teeth. I bought these teeth necklaces 

to store in the tooth in.

Well now my class isn't losing any teeth, 

so, I took off the necklace part,

and I added some in our ten frame game boards below. 

Children will place the number of teeth on the game boards.
