Leprechaun, Where is your gold?

After reviewing position words, we made leprechauns and in the speech bubble wrote where the leprechaun hid the gold.

Synonym Pots Of Gold

I wrote words on the pot and synonyms on gold coins. Students sort the gold coins on the appropriate pot.

Who took the shamrock from the leprechaun?

I adapted the idea for this game from www.childcareland.com. I used felt to make a shamrock bean bag.

Scarecrow Counting Center

There are twenty numbered hats. Students put a hat on the scarecrow and then add that many fabric patches on the scarecrow.

Halloween Counting Center

Students match the number of pompoms to the Trick or Treat bag.

Bat More/Less Center

Students spin the spinner from the Dollar Store and count out that many bats on the cave. The second student does the same. Determine who has more bats in the cave and who has less.

Halloween Lowercase to Uppercase Match Center

Students match the ghost with the lowercase letter to the tree with the uppercase letter.

Popcorn Word Cookie Jar

Students choose a cookie to read and then put it in the cookie jar. The cookie jar is made from Paper Doll Dress Up. The cookies are made from Plantin Schoolbook.

Halloween Rhyming Activities

The top activity comes from a Mailbox game. I used the cricut to cut the orange and purple circles. Students play as a memory game and match a purple picture to an orange picture to make a rhyming match.

In the bottom activity, each bat has a picture on the left wing. The students find the matching word card to put on the right wing.

McDonald's Muffets

After reading "Little Miss Muffet" many times, the children each got a chance to act out the poem. We took photos and then they added their names to the poems.

Brown Bear

I made each character from the story Brown Bear, Brown Bear by Bill Martin. I used Animal Kingdom for all the animals. I used Paper Dolls for the Teacher. I outlined each animal with marker and then laminated them.

Dismissal Chart

Dismissal is a busy time. The kids frequently change their schedules throughout the year so I wanted something I could update easily. I used pocket charts in read and blue from the Dollar Spot at Target. The buses are from Doodlecharms in blackout. The sneaker and the head are from Paperdolls.

Zero The Hero

Zero The Hero is so cool.

Zero The Hero goes to school.

Zero The Hero saves a space,

So all the other numbers,

Stay in their place! Yeah!

Pointers

These are pointers I made with dowels from Home Depot. My husband cut them in half. I then used hot glue, ribbon, googly eyes, and ink to embellish them. The students will use them for Reading the Room, reading our Morning Message and Shared Reading book, and during calendar.

Tooth Fairy

This is the Tooth Fairy I made using Paper Doll Dress Up to go with my lost tooth chart. I am running out of wall space for stuff so I am posting them on the back of the bathroom door.
