Word Family Snakes

My kids at the moment love to sound out words when writing. For weeks I have been trying to convince them that if they can write cat, they can also write hat! They still insist on sounding out the words each time though! I decided to make a game where they could sort groups of words into word families so that they could visually see how similar the words are.
In this activity, they create snakes by piecing together chunks of snake that have words printed on them. There are 10 different word families in this set. The head and tail piece give the word family clue to make it a little easier as well.

Mickey Mouse Basic Addition

Image
My kids are MAD about Disney at the moment. They have been painting all of the Disney characters and love the Disney music that I play in the room. My preps are starting to become much more confident when adding numbers together up to 10 but I wanted to push them a little bit more to see how they would go to 20. To keep with their Disney madness, I made this game up using their beloved Mickey Mouse ears. The head piece has a numeral on it and there are separate ear pieces which have white dots on it. Their job is to place Mickey's ears on the head with the correct number of dots. Hopefully they will really enjoy this activity. Click here to open

Number Pattern Cards to 100

Image
I made up a heap of laminated number pattern cards for my year 1s to practice counting forwards and backwards in 1s, 2s, 5s and 10s to and from 100. So far they have been a really popular activity in my classroom and some of my preppies are even beginning to have a go at some of them. The kids really enjoy the coloured cards and laminating them allows the kids to reuse them over and over. They are actually becoming much faster at filling them in - we even have races to see who can fill in the most cards in 2 minutes. Click here to go to my TPT Store
