FREE MATH LESSON – “Color & Count Christmas Theme | Counting Coloring Sheets for Pre-K”

by RoShamBo Homeschooling
Pre-Kindergarten – 1st Grade

This FREE printable includes 10 coloring sheets that will help get your kiddo in the Christmas spirit!

One thing I know my son can never get enough of is new coloring sheets.

And Christmas coloring sheets that help with practicing counting, number recognition, and one-to-one correspondence? ‘Tis the season!

These Christmas-themed coloring pages cover numbers 1-10. They’re great for kids who are just learning numbers and for kids who already know their numbers but still need practice with counting bigger numbers. Plus, coloring regularly is one of the best ways kiddos can keep building the fine motor strength in their hands that will prepare them for learning handwriting later on.

After my son completes a series of educational coloring sheets like this that all fit into a theme, I like to laminate them, hole punch them, and put them into a binder so that he can continue looking at them and learning. He’s always so much more interested in “studying” a booklet I’ve made him when he helped color it!

Please let me know if you have any questions prior to purchasing.

Rachel’s Monster

By Gini Musmanno of Reading Spotlight

The first time I saw Rachel she was standing in the hall near her first-grade classroom door. Her eyes met mine, but she then turned her face to the wall. I did not know at that time she would become one of my first primary grade remedial reading students, nor did I know that she was repeating first grade–this is a story about Rachel’s monster.

“BOO” to Fractions? Recognizing Equivalent Fractions

By Vicky Rauch of Scipi

Math requires constant practice – something most of my students dread doing. I can find many “drill and kill” activities, but they tend to do just that, drill those who don’t need it and kill those who already know how to do it. So to drill and “thrill”, I created fractional word puzzles. The one for October is Halloween Fraction Riddles.

Cursive vs. Keyboard – an interesting debate

However, hidden beneath the mandated revisions is a new discussion that centers around cursive writing vs. keyboard entry for student assignments.

FREE SCIENCE LESSON – “Australian Indigenous story “Budburra’s Garden” – food, health and nutrition”

by Ripper Reading Resources
1st – 3rd Grade

What’s terrific about this picture book is that it introduces children to different nutritious foods (fruit and vegetables) according to their colours. It is also terrific to use as a mentor text to reinforce learning about adjectives.

“Budburra’s Garden” is written and illustrated by the children of Cherbourg in Queensland, Australia. You can find out more about this picture book, including how to purchase it here: http://www.budburrabooks.com.au/budburras-garden.html

It introduces students to traditional fruits and vegetables, but also traditional Australian Indigenous foods. The picture book includes information about the bush tucker found in “Budburra’s Garden” at the back of the book and recipes to “Colour Yourself Healthy”. I really think this is a powerful picture book with the potential to be used on many levels.

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “FREE Fine Motor Days of the Week Cut and Paste and Writing Activities”

by Mrs Ds Corner
Pre-Kindergarten – 3rd Grade

FREE Days of the Week Activity • Practice fine motor skills with your students each day, as they cut and paste, then trace and write how to spell the days of the week. It is an important skill for students to learn!

Print and go, no-prep activities are a great way to accommodate and modify curriculum for a variety of ability levels – and not just in a special needs classroom! Great for service provider sessions (Speech and OT), homeschool, outside therapies, or in a regular ed classroom setting.

What is included?

• Errorless Sentence case. days of the week matching (1 page for each day)

• Errorless UPPERCASE days of the week matching (1 page for each day)

• Matching with Sentence case. days of the week (1 page for each day)

• Matching with UPPERCASE days of the week matching (1 page for each day)

• Color, trace, box, write, and find practice (1 page for each day)

How do I use this?

Use these free sheets to supplement your already amazing calendar routine. Practice fine motor skills and hand-eye-coordination with the cut and paste activity. Practice different writing techniques and a seek-and-find activity too! So many ways to differentiate… all for FREE!

Need months of the year cut/paste fine motor practice too? Grab the FREE set on my blog here.

TIPS FOR USE

• I keep copies at the back table, ready to pull and use each day with students.

• I make a laminated set of these sheets for each student, too. Using a dry erase marker or laminating the sheets and turning them into velcro-tasks help to spice up the activities when students need a change from the paper and pencil task.

by Mrs Magee
Kindergarten – 2nd Grade

Need some fun, seasonal practice of odd and even numbers? Print the header cards and number cards in either color or black and white. (If printing in black, print on colored paper for more fun!) I recommend using cardstock to make your cards as durable as possible when laminating.

A cut and paste worksheet is included that can be used as homework, independent practice, or a recording sheet to use with a center.
