<br />
This is Laura from <a href="http://laura-armstrong-martinez.blogspot.com/">Teacher Laura</a>. I'm hanging out on my highly anticipated Spring Break! Before I run off to the Oregon Coast I thought I'd share my little freebie for those of you who are going back to school this week or next. It's a Spring Break writing activity. Maybe you want your kiddies to stay busy while you gather your thoughts about being back to school, or maybe you want them to respond to the prompts instead of ambushing you with their stories. Either way, hopefully you'll find this useful. You can hop on over to <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Teacher-Laura">my TPT store</a> to grab it there.<br />
<br />
Thanks, and have a happy break!<br />
<br />
Laura<br />

Long time no post huh?!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sorry about that</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am counting down till the summer so I can finally have some free time</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is so hard to try to keep up with everything</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyhoo</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you use Scholastic Book Order forms?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you always have a bunch of them laying around</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and have no real use for them?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hop on over to my blog and see how I use them in my classroom</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Click the pic to take you there</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Now before I post this</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I must say it is not the cutest </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is actually one of the first things that I created and could use some serious updating</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It still gets the job done and its F.R.E.E</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I can get a pass right?!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why thank you for that</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Moving on</div>

Hi there! It's Michelle from <a href="http://applesandabcs.blogspot.com/">Apples and ABC's.</a> I want to share an easy DIY math center that you can make for you kids! We are learning how to count numbers 1-30 right now in my Kinder class. I drew some 30 frames inside a heart and wrote a number at the bottom of each page. Then I bound about 6 different sheets together so they could flip through and practice different numbers. On each page the students place that many objects in the 10 frame boxes. Here are the materials:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-mini objects {I used Valentine's erasers from the Target dollar bin}</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-<a href="http://www.lakeshorelearning.com/product/productDet.jsp?productItemID=1%2C689%2C949%2C371%2C896%2C916&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474395181113&bmUID=1360283683473">fine motor tweezers</a> {they can just use their hands}</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I placed this at a center for math time and the kids had a blast! I don't always have them use the tweezers, but when we do use them they get to excited. I stress how these make their hands stronger so they can become better writers. </div>

Hi friends! I'm Mrs. M from Color Me Kinder!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I am so excited to be contributing to this blog!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I'm going to share with you some last minute Winter FUN! If you've already wrapped up your winter theme, then I surely hope you can use these ideas next year :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We made this cute snowman craft I found on pinterest. I couldn't locate the original source because the pin was "dead" (invalid). So if you know where this idea came from please let me know so I can give proper credit. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnAz6dRhEUfO197DlTeOAZhsbeCA9OPHHcCIjhqXTVWi-lb6erK53iTVivcsqLuQML0shnuypHeMB0SWd6csadLeJdyCSEhNVJMkieG2nOAW26KzfTwR7eDOgNcAoXq_2s2DpyzP7dRr4/s1600/Presentation2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnAz6dRhEUfO197DlTeOAZhsbeCA9OPHHcCIjhqXTVWi-lb6erK53iTVivcsqLuQML0shnuypHeMB0SWd6csadLeJdyCSEhNVJMkieG2nOAW26KzfTwR7eDOgNcAoXq_2s2DpyzP7dRr4/s640/Presentation2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had them write each letter in their name on the circles- hence, the reason I had to white it out. You can also have them write numbers 1-10, or numbers for skip counting 5-50, or 10- 100. The ideas are endless! We used a q-tip with white paint for the "snow". If you don't have q-tips handy you can use the eraser of the pencil instead.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We also worked on this melted snowman craft. We traced and cut 4 circles and overlapped them. I also pre- cut buttons using a 1.5" circle puncher. </div>

Hi everyone! This is Julie from <a href="http://blog.maketaketeach.com/">Make, Take & Teach</a>. I'm so happy to be one of the educational bloggers contributing to KinderLand. We have so many creative kindergarten teachers (and those who love kindergarten), willing to share ideas and activities with literally the whole world! My little niche is developing activities for small group instruction and intervention. So, in the spirit of Valentine's Day, I'd like to share with you an activity that I made for helping our beginning readers decode consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) words. This activity is great for use during your small group intervention or it can be used as an activity within your literacy centers.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Happy Martin Luther King Day. I had the day off but haven't accomplished much. I did manage to upload this freebie for all of you.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Although it is almost February, I still have a few friends who are struggling with the one-ton-one correspondence and matching numbers to sets. I know I can't be be the only kindergarten teacher who is having this issue. Here is a little activity I used as an assessment to see just where they are.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
I had my kids cut everything out and then match numbers to set, in order before they could glue it down. It's quick, easy and very telling of which one of your little friends is still struggling. Just click the picture to download a copy.</div>

Hello Kinderland! I am Michelle from <a href="http://applesandabcs.blogspot.com/">Apples and ABC's</a> and I am so excited to share my first post with you!</center>
<br />
<center>
<a href="http://applesandabcs.blogspot.com/"><img border="0" src="http://i1212.photobucket.com/albums/cc453/eblecki/Apples%20and%20ABCs/applesbutton-1.png" /></a></center>
<center>
<br /></center>
<center>
Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and I am always looking for different manipulatives to add to my language arts and math bins. Each month I do some sort of "letter hunt" activity where the students look for letters and write the ones they find. Let me show you what I mean...</center>
<center>
<br /></center>
<center>
My FAVORITE place to shop for manipulatives is the dollar section at Target. They always have seasonal goodies for the best price! I found these puffy heart stickers last week...</center>
<center>
<br /></center>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
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.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPqa7hr_LOkCt_eHPnCskZKLdhlwp42vhswOlYNlVMawUYhf6vTajG5GjQw-NhTbHeabuHD0IbRH0QM2PWBHSZIVuFwRqyaUKKiqI026Z_ZezdMK_rDHAQ8hDXMv8u7lvakZNJdZhHAZc/s1600/photo+1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPqa7hr_LOkCt_eHPnCskZKLdhlwp42vhswOlYNlVMawUYhf6vTajG5GjQw-NhTbHeabuHD0IbRH0QM2PWBHSZIVuFwRqyaUKKiqI026Z_ZezdMK_rDHAQ8hDXMv8u7lvakZNJdZhHAZc/s320/photo+1.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
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!</div>

Hello everyone, it's Mandy from A Special Kind of Class. I'm so excited to be writing for Kinderland. I thought I would share with you a Valentine Freebie. I have a really young kindergarten class this year and they need all the help they can get on the alphabet. This is a simple upper and lower case matching game. Of course you can make two copies and have the children match the lower case letters or the upper case letters. Click on the picture below to pick it up for free.</div>

I am so excited to be posting over here at Kinderland. This is the first post for me on this collaborative blog. It has been so wonderful to be a part of this great blogging community that gave the opportunity to be a part of the kinderland collaboration. Anyway, I'm Ms. Kerri from Ms. Kerri and Her Krazy Klass. You can check out my blog (but not until you've finished over here.)<br />

<center style="text-align: left;">
I am a k-1 looping teacher. I get my students in Kindergarten and then keep them for 2 years. There are things I love about it and then things I am not so crazy about. One of the things that is difficult is that I have to keep things fresh more often. I need to change things up so the kids don't get bored with the same activities. One of those areas that needs a little work is word work and spelling. In the fall I implemented a menu for word work and writing. I love this idea and it helps me to not micromanage the kids. So here are a few things we do already:</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
On Mondays, my kids take a pretest on the spelling words. Then we build each spelling word.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
On Tuesdays, we play the game sparkle. (This is one of my kids favorite games. The students get into a circle. I usually start with the student of the day. I tell them a spelling word. The first student says the word, then each student afterwards says a letter until the word is spelling. Then the next student says the spelling word again and the person after that says sparkle. The student after the sparkle has to sit down.)</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
We also sort the words as a class on the promethean board.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Wednesdays, we do a making words activity. I love this book. </center>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirH7nyditKFbUeuGneHEGccDbSnCQjpOwUOr7moy43rwydgnX-VGjuFPv-DjHwNWIuoHP0ilJw1Jnu5oUUifppPftFDVq3ecE5s0a4VziXnKAntIu3V9ZPkxW0rMBZUZW9rbWFnyZbla8q/s1600/making+words.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirH7nyditKFbUeuGneHEGccDbSnCQjpOwUOr7moy43rwydgnX-VGjuFPv-DjHwNWIuoHP0ilJw1Jnu5oUUifppPftFDVq3ecE5s0a4VziXnKAntIu3V9ZPkxW0rMBZUZW9rbWFnyZbla8q/s1600/making+words.jpg" /></a></div>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I think this is the book I have but it has a different cover. I think mine is an old print of the book. But I can look up words by spelling patterns or by the final word I want them to make.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Thursdays, we play a game on <a href="http://www.spellingcity.com/">spelling city</a>. Have you checked out this website? My kids love playing hang mouse on it. I love it because they can do it all by themselves so it's good if I need to keep them occupied for a few minutes. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Fridays, we take our final test. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Meanwhile they have homework 2 night a week for spelling. I use a packet from Maggie from Maggie's Kinder Corner that is editable and I love it. It's her <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Editable-Seasonal-Word-Templates-for-Sight-Words-Spelling-or-Vocabulary-K-2">Editable Seasonal Word Templates for Spelling and Sight words. </a></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
They do a variety of activities during word work time. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<ul>
<li>One is the game boom. This is one that I learned from my mentoring teacher while doing my student teaching. I took a pringles can and craft sticks. I write all the sight words for the units on the craft sticks. Then I write boom on about 10-15 of them depending on how many words there are. The students pull out a stick, if they can read it they get to keep it. If they can't read it, it goes back in the can. If they pull out a boom, all their sticks go back in. </li>
<li>Another game is the Stinky Cheese game. It's similar to the boom game but there are different action cards. This game can be found in my <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Words-that-Pop-Up-Packet-1-Based-on-Treasures-Reading-series-for-first-grade">Words that Pop Up Units</a> on TPT. </li>
<li>They can use the ipods. I desperately need some new apps for these for word work. Any suggestions?</li>
<li>They can use the computer.</li>
<li>Write the room (I'm using my <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Wintery-Mix-Write-the-Room-Activities">Wintery Mix</a> pack on Tpt)</li>
<li>Magnetic letters - They make the spelling and sight words with magnetic letters on cookie sheets.</li>
<li>Popcorn words three ways. This is another activity from my Words that Pop Up Units. They color, stamp, trace and rainbow write the sight words.</li>
<li>Write a card</li>
</ul>
It is time to change it up a bit. So I went to trusty old pinterest and found a few new ideas to try out.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
</center>
I've seen this idea floating around and I think it's time to try it out. I have several cans of shaving cream that would be perfect for an activity like this.

I think this idea has a variety of uses too. The kids could go by that word all day or play a 20 questions type game to figure out what the word is

So this post has gotten much longer than I planned on it being. But before I go, I have freebie to share with you. It's a sheet to have students rainbow write their words. I didn't put any words on it. They can choose whatever words you want.<br />

<span style="font-family: LD Elementary; font-size: large;">Hi friends! </span><br />

</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: LD Elementary; font-size: large;">If you have been to my blog you know that I LOVE playing games with my kids. We are really big on “Bang!” and “I have…Who has”</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: LD Elementary; font-size: large;"></span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: LD Elementary; font-size: large;">We play them in whole group, when we have 5 minutes before lunch, or right before we walk out of the room to go home.</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: LD Elementary; font-size: large;">Or we use them during intervention time. When we have someone who can pull kids they will grab one of my multiple games based off the groups ability and needs.</span><br />

is already shaping up to be a great year for me! I'll be presenting at
the NSTA (National Science Teachers' Association) conference in San
Antonio this April and am anxiously awaiting news about my PAEMST
award--to D.C or not to D.C! :) I have to wait until May/June to find
out, so cross your fingers. :)<br />
<br />
I have a freebie for you! I was trying to come up with a simple Literacy Work Station
that my kids could do that would tie into our community helper theme.
This is a dice roll game, intended for use with the 4 1/2 inch clear
pocket dice that you can use and change out the pictures. I've also
included two recording sheets, one is great for readers or emergent
readers and the other has the words and pictures on it for pre-readers.<br />
<br />
Just click the picture below to go to my TPT store to download it...while you're there, check out my sale! My whole store is %15 off until the 4th. :)<br />
