Roll and Color

For this game, C rolled one of the color dies I made for the peg people game and then a number die. She then colored the number she rolled using the color she rolled. If she landed on the rainbow side, she got to pick the color to color the number.

I am sure I have seen this online, but I cannot remember where. If it is your original idea let me know and I will give you credit.

Same & Different - ABC version

When I was putting ideas together for the upcoming school year, I remembered this idea I saw at Activity Mom. I decided to make it a literacy activity by printing some letter cards.

I made 2 versions, upper and lowercase. click on links to download.

uppercase

Matching Games

To make this matching activity, I cut circles from a cereal box and put stickers around them. I put matching stickers on the ends of craft sticks.

 

For another version I put different colored stickers to match colored craft sticks

Summer Update

I can't believe it is August already!

As you can see, we have taken much of the summer off.

The plan was to send C to preschool this fall, but they ended up canceling the program we signed her up for :( (we live in a small town with only 2 options for 3 year old preschool, the other option just isn't for us) We were very upset about it, but instead we will be doing preschool at home!! C doesn't seem to mind. When we do go by where she was going to go, she just says "I will go there when I am 4"

In a few weeks, I hope to start up tot school for J and preschool for C. I won't be doing anything formal, just a planned activity or two a day. When my plan is complete, I will post it here. I also hope to post some ideas from my teaching days as I go through all my stuff.

You may also notice a link below the banner for printables. You will find all the alphabet paths there. I have up to letter m complete. I am hoping to finish the rest before the new school year.

And I continue to find awesome ideas at pinterest. Check it out if you haven't yet!

I hope everyone enjoys their last few weeks of summer!
