Here are some new Literacy and Math Activities I introduced last week:

I used jumbo popsicle sticks and wrote our sight words on them.  I then colored one end of the stick red or blue.

I used clothespins and labeled each one with a letter in the words.  I also color coded them with red and blue.

The children pull a stick and make the word using the clothespins.  The colors on the clothespins are supposed to match the color on the popsicle sticks. :)  There is one clothespin for each letter–the children can make all the words without using clothespins from other words. 

Gingerbread Man dice toss is available in my Gingerbread Man Math and Literacy pack.

We are also working on measurement so we measured these gingerbread men with candy “rulers”.  This activity is also in the same pack.

The kids were thrilled when I added 3 different versions of The Gingerbread Man to our iPods!  We are listening to The Gingerbread Boy, Baby, and Pirates.🙂

This activity is see it, build it, write it.  The children pick a word card from the bucket, “see it”, make the words with the magnetic letters, and then write it in their own handwriting.  I will soon be changing out the handwriting part for letter stamps.🙂Kristen🙂
