CVC Frog Leap pads

CVC Frog Leap pads

(2)
Use these Lily pads to practise CVC fluency. Print the lily pads onto green paper (or any color you choose). Pin the ‘-at’ to a frog stuffed toy. If you don’t have a frog stuffed toy, print the frog included at the end of this product and ‘stick’ the ‘-at’ to it. All five short vowel sounds have been included in this product. Lay the lily pads on the table and students take turns springing from one ‘–at’ lily pad to the next, reading the words as they go. They can then record the ‘-at’ words on a white board should you wish to practice their writing as well as reading. Pin a new sound combination to your frog once your students have grasped –at. Students at different tables can also be practising different sounds and then move from table to table. Visit my blog Learning with Sunflower Smiles to see how I used them. You may be interested in my other long vowel, short vowel and blends activities. Visit my store to check them out. Happy teaching! Margaux

Fine Motor: Winter Tracing
margauxlangenhovenmargauxlangenhoven

Fine Motor: Winter Tracing

(0)
This product was designed for students to practise their fine motor skills and prepare them for writing. It has been created with a winter theme, where a winter character needs to reach a desired item. The student then uses their crayon to follow the path until they reach the item. For extra practice, we first use a non-writing tool to follow the path before using a crayon. This product is in colour and black line. A front cover has also been included to create a little booklet. I would suggest laminating the colour version in order to make it reusable. Students can then use a dry erase marker to follow the paths. A key ring can be used to group them together into a fun center activity.

Alphabet Foreground and Background

Alphabet Foreground and Background

(0)
Alphabet Foreground and Background coloring pages Use this Alphabet Visual Foreground and background activity to reinforce both. A US and UK version of this product is included in the download. The development of Visual Foreground and Background is important in students as it allows them to differentiate between items on a page and later on words in a sentence and on a page. Without the ability to do so, images and words blend into one another and the student is unable to distinguish the difference. Students need to color the letter and its corresponding picture. They then also practise their fine motor further by writing over the dotted letters to form the word of the picture they are colouring.
