Snowman Bookmarks "Reading is SNOW much fun!"

 

 One of my favorite activities for winter now in my store is called

Mr. Snowman!

 

The Mr. Snowman story is read or sung to the tune of "Happy Birthday". This fun, educational activity is good practice using color and position words. Parts of the body and clothing items are also reviewed.  

 

Once created by you, this 15-page book contains a different verse on each page. Additionally, it includes all the pieces for a 2-foot snowman, plus a worksheet for a child's drawing activity.

 

  I also used the snowman pieces as patterns to trace on flannel to create a flannel board Mr. Snowman.

Children so enjoy the singing and reading of this story, plus creating Mr. Snowman with all his pieces and parts. The littlest learners love to have the story read or sung to them while they make Mr. Snowman!

 

So even if you have snow or don't have snow, now your children can make a man with a very big heart!  

 

Father's Day Fun and Spelling Activity!

D-A-D-D-Y Was His Name-O

 What a fun activity for giving Fathers special attention for Father's Day!
It is a great way to learn some letters of the alphabet!

There is a song poster, the Love poster and the letter posters that spell DADDY. Included is a cover sheet and directions. Each poster is 8 1/2 by 11 inches. Sing to the tune "Bingo."

Introduce the song using the song poster. Pass the letter cards out and have the students participate with the singing.

To make the activity harder, sing the song with flipping a letter to Love for each verse and do a motion and/or sound instead. For example, sing D A D D Y for the first verse. Then turn the first letter D over for the second verse and have the children hug themselves and sing Love for the letter D. They would hug, then sing Love A D D Y. The third verse would be Love, Love, and sing D D Y. Do this until all the letters are turned over and the last verse is Love, Love, Love, Love, Love.

Lots of love for Father's Day!

Mother's Day Is Coming!

Mother's Day in the United States is annually held on the second Sunday of May. It celebrates motherhood and it is a time to appreciate mothers and mother figures.

 

For this special day, I have an activity called

 Mother's Day Song And Posters M-O-M-M-Y Was Her Name-O.

Hopefully you are a Follower on my blog, because many times 

I will have an activity for sale in my

TeacherspayTeachers Store

and I will post it here for free! This one of those times!

 

 There is a song poster, the HUGS poster and the letter posters that spell MOMMY. Included is a cover sheet and directions. Each poster is 8 1/2 by 11 inches.

Sing to the tune "Bingo."

Introduce the song using the song poster.

Pass the letter cards out and have the students participate with the singing.

It also fun to discuss where the Mother is located in each card!

What a fun activity for giving Mothers special attention for Mother's Day!

It is a great way to learn some letters of the alphabet!

To make the activity harder, sing the song with flipping a letter to HUGS for each verse and do a motion or sound instead. For example, sing M O M M Y for the first verse. Then turn the letter M over to HUGS for the second verse and have the children hug their arms around themselves and sing HUGS for the letter M. They would hug, then sing HUGS O M M Y. The third verse would be HUGS, HUGS, and sing M M Y. Do this until all the letters are turned over and the last verse is sung HUGS, HUGS, HUGS, HUGS, HUGS.

Enjoy!

Some hands-on learning activities that I like to do during this time are: 

Easter Bunny Geometric Shape Rabbit

 It is used to introduce or review the four shapes, circle, square, triangle, rectangle,
 plus practice fine motor skills, cutting, gluing, and body awareness.

It has a variety of different activites and colors and creating the whole body or just the head!

For the little learners, it is best to just start with the head activity!

Here is a Preview of this product.

 I have two great interactive songs!

  Easter Song And Posters E-G-G-I-E Was His Name-O

 

Easter/Spring Song And Posters B-U-N-N-Y Was His Name-O

 What fun activities for the spring or Easter season. Sing to the tune "Bingo."
 It is a great way for tiny humans to learn some letters of the alphabet!

There is a song poster, an action poster and letter posters that spell the word, included is a cover sheet and directions. Each poster is 8 1/2 by 11 inches.

Introduce the song using the song poster. Pass the letter cards out and have the students participate with the singing. To make the activity harder sing the song with subtracting a letter for each verse and do a motion or sound instead. Laminate and use year after year!

 

This activity can be used even by a single child by having them point at the posters and do the motions.
