I took an empty paint cup and filled it with the heart stickers. I added some small blocks with letters printed on the sides. The students can read the letters though the clear plastic and write them down.
The students used a white board to record the letters that they saw thorough the cup. You don't have to use blocks, you can write letters on card stock or anything that can withstand a "gentle" kinder shake. :) I also switch it up write numbers or sight words on the blocks too! The options are endless!
I hope you enjoyed this short post, and I look forward to sharing more ideas soon!

I love this idea. I do something similiar with a water bottle. I fill it with a bit of water and put glitter and some letter beads in. The kids shake and read. I always worry about that one fateful day when the water bottle decides it wants to spring a leak. I thinking I'm going to switch to your idea!

CUTE, CUTE, CUTE! Thanks for the great idea. I always forget about my extra dry erase boards. . . I'm throwing them into my ABC tub on Tuesday.

Cute idea! The dollar section at Target is my nemesis! I can't leave without picking up a few things. I always use the excuse... "Oh, I'll use it for something!" haha
