Subtraction Sorting and Other Activities

-
This packet contains subtraction cards for all subtraction facts from 0-10.  The cards are smaller than the standard cards found so that they take up less paper and ink.  Two recording sheets are available for this packet.

Suggested Activities:
  • Sort the subtraction problems to match their difference.
  • Select two problems, determine whether the difference is greater than, less than or equal to the second difference.
  • Give students a group of subtraction cards and have them put the cards in order from least to greatest.
  • Play concentration/memory where students must match the differences to get a pair.

Here was our first art project!  The letter outline we used can be found in my Lowercase Letter Outlines ! We got to be scientists as we studied what part of an apple floats or sinks.  The recording pages can be found in this Let's Be Scientists packet !  I wrote a more detailed blog post about it HERE !   We looked at and sequenced the life cycle of an apple.  We also did this art project where my kids colored their apple then tore red paper to decorate it!  My two year old LOVED ripping up the paper!

This is a neat little art project my son (2 ye...

Looking for activities to go along with teaching the letter P?  Look below to see the activities we have done! P is for pepperoni pizza!  We used brown and red crayons for crust and sauce, used yellow paper shreds for cheese and red circles for pepperoni for this letter P craft! The Letter Outline can be found here:  Capital Letter Outline          These letter P pages use pouch top to build each letter.  With one page for the capital letter P, and one page for the lowercase letter P, these pages were a favorite with my preschooler! These pages are found here:  Pouch Top Alphabet Mats Another favorite around here are playdough mats.  My boys have LOVED using playdough, so I try to incorporate that in all aspects of their schooling.   This page is found here:  Alphabet Playdough Mats These dot painting pages were a HUGE hit with my daughter.  She loves all things art, so I try to add some for her to do each we...

Check out this post for activities all about the letter J! J is for Jaguar - Use these capital letter outlines to create a jaguar print letter J.  We simply colored the J yellow and then used a q-tip with black paint to make the rosettes. We used pouch tops to fill in our letter J mat!  These letter mats are one of our favorite activities!  We used juice to paint these lowercase letter j pictures.  The kids loved doing this different kind of art.  We used these letter pages as playdough mats.  My son loves using playdough so we try to incorporate it into each week of letter learning.  When we finish with the playdough, we use the same mats to sort capital and lowercase versions of the letter.    These stamping pages are a favorite activity around here!  They make a great fine motor activity and allows for hand-eye coordination practice.

Pinecone Activities

Image
I have spent the last several weeks collecting pine cones to use with my kids for a few projects this winter. The first project we did was this turkey pine cone art project.  It was more difficult than I initially anticipated.  The feathers kept falling off the turkey, even after we glued them in.  Perhaps they would stick better with hot glue, but I am not comfortable with my 5 year old using a hot glue gun! We made a pine cone Christmas tree as well.  We painted the pine cone green and glued different colored pom poms to the inside of the cone. We made these cute pine cone owls as well!  Simply stuff the pine cone with cotton and glue eyes and a beak!  This makes a perfect craft for a winter animal or owl unit! We also painted with our pine cones.  We dipped our pine cones in paint and rolled them around our paper! We made rainbow pine cones to decorate our counter!  My daughter loved making the pine cone all different ...

Letter B Activities

We have finally started the letter B.  We began by telling my 2 year old that the letter B is the first letter in his name.  He wasn't impressed.  He has no motivation to do any of the letter B crafts so far.  He was so excited about letter A and doing "school" with sissy, I thought he would like to continue with new activities.  I guess the novelty of it has worn off. Letter hunts are so much fun!  We went through our toy room and found a variety of items that start with B!  A bowl from the kitchen area, blocks, a bug, a bus, a bear, a bow, a ball, a letter B from our alphabet puzzle, a banana from our fruit puzzle and a bridge from our train set! My five year old wanted to get in on the letter B action so I asked her if she could make a "bee pattern" on her letter B.  She said, "Yes!  That is so easy!" and the above is what she made for me. My two year old was tasked with coloring his letter B black and blue.  He was m...
