Plants Number Cards
Math, Early Math, Numbers, Kindergarten, Preschool, Activities, Worksheets & Printables, Flashcards
These plant themed number cards are perfect for students who are learning with a plant theme. They make the perfect tool for students to learn numbers up to 20. What is Included: This set includes one number card and one number word card for all numbers up to 20. Ideas for Using the Number Cards: Invite students to play a matching activity by pairing each number with its corresponding number word. Turn the cards into a hands on fishing game by attaching paper clips and using a magnetic fishing rod for students to “catch” the numbers. Place the cards in a sand or salt tray so students can trace or write the numbers and number words for tactile practice. Hide the cards around the classroom and have students go on a number scavenger hunt to find and identify each one. Challenge students to arrange the cards in correct numerical order, working independently or as a group. Use a pocket chart to create a guessing game by placing the cards in the chart and hiding a picture behind one number. Students take turns guessing which number is hiding the picture. Add small manipulatives (such as counters, cubes, or pom-poms) and have students count objects to match the number shown on each card. When to Use: Math Centers – Add the number cards to a math center for students to practice matching independently or with a partner. Morning Tubs or Baskets – Place the number cards in a morning bin for students to work on as classmates arrive. Small Group Instruction – Use the number cards during small group time to provide extra support for students who need additional practice recognizing numbers and number words. Make number recognition fun with these plant number cards! This low-prep activity is easy for teachers to prepare. Teachers just simply print, cut, and laminate for durability. The number cards fit perfectly in a task box for effortless setup, cleanup, and storage. Skills Assessed: These cards, depending on the materials added, can assess both number recognition and number word recognition.

Letter C Playdough Mats
ELA, Language Development, Phonics, Kindergarten, Preschool, Activities
These letter C playdough mats allow students to build those fine motor muscles while learning about things that begin with the letter C.. Each mat features a picture of a word that starts with C for students to use playdough to create. These mats are suitable to preschoolers and kindergartners who are learning about the initial sound of the letter C and those who need extra practice building up their fine motor skills. There are 7 different playdough mats in this set: * C is for cat * C is for corn * C is for cup * C is for carrot * C is for cookie * C is for candle * C is for crab When to Use * Fine Motor Center * Playdough Center * Alphabet Center * Literacy Center * Independent Activity * Small Group Activity * Morning Tub or Basket Activity * Table Top Activity Skills Assessed * Fine Motor Skills * Color Matching * Beginning Sounds The playdough mats themselves are no prep. The teacher will simply print them out, and laminate them if desired and place them in the appropriate center or activity area. All that needs to be added to this activity is different colored playdough or clay. These mats not only provide a fun and engaging activity for students to practice fine motor skills, they also provide a way for students to associate the initial sound of the letter C to recognizable pictures. Teachers will love the easy set up for this center activity. By laminating these pages, teachers will have a reusable playdough center for students to use over and over. The playdough should not stick to the laminated pages. If laminating is not an option, I would recommend placing the playdough mats inside page protectors or in plastic sleeves. The playdough will not stick to their surfaces as well.

Whatever space they land on, they can read the question out loud and answer it verbally with their partner or group. 2.Same as number 1, but the partner can answer the question instead of the person who rolled the dice. 3.Same as number 1, but both partners (or everybody in the group) can write their answer down on paper. 4.Same as number 1, but students can practice writing down the question and their individual answer to the question.
