I made a set of write-on wipe-off boards for our writing center that we used with washable markers. I printed the patterns on cardstock paper and laminated them. I made both blank and lined boards with different color options for printing. You can download the patterns below:

The free membership printable this week is Number Cut and Glue Sheets for number recognition ... fine motor and scissor skills. I printed the sheets on paper and set them out with scissors and glue sticks.
I made the cut and glue sheets in color and black and white as well as with blank squares on number guided squares. Children cut along the line on each sheet ... cut the squares out and then glue them in order in the boxes at the top of each sheet. I have included numbers 1-30.
You can grab the patterns below for free until Sunday May 27th ... after that date they will only be available in the member's section which is also where I have added Alphabet Cut and Glue.

I made a dump truck color sort for color recognition and review. I printed the patterns on cardstock paper ... cut them out and laminated them. There are twelve dump truck cards and six color squares for each card.
In this activity children put the colors squares on the mats with the same color dump trucks. Play continues until all of the colors have been sorted and matched. You can download the patterns below.

One of my favorite theme is gardening and I love having the children make paper plate sunflowers ... they always turn out so cute!!
We used nine inch paper plates but you could also use the smaller ones. We painted the paper plate yellow using do-a-dot markers (you can also finger paint the plates) and blotted off the extra paint with a paper towel.
After the paint had dried we put glue around the edge of the plate. We pressed on flower petals that we had cut out of yellow tissue paper. We went back and applied more glue and flower petals in the gaps to give it a layered look.
The last step was to apply glue drops to the center of the paper plate and press sunflower seeds on. I encouraged the children to put as many seeds on as possible.
Once the glue dried we hung them up around the room and they look awesome!! I love this project because it really gives the children a chance to work on fine motor development. You can see a video of this project below:
I am running a special on my membership printables!! The special is for a twelve month membership for the price of six months and contains all of the membership printables from the past fourteen years plus the new material that is added weekly for the next year. The special ends midnight Sunday May 13th.
Here are just few of the activities from the member's section:
The free membership printable this week is Flower Match and Clip for visual discrimination and fine motor development. I printed two copies on cardstock paper ... cut them out and laminated them.
Children find the flower cards that match and then clip them together with clothespins or large plastic paper clips. There are twenty different flower cards to match but you can put out as many or as few as you wish.
You can grab the patterns below for free until Sunday May 13th ... after that date they will only be available in the member's section which is also where I have added Flower Letter Tracing.
