Robot Number Match

3/20/2017

The free membership printable this week is Robot Number Match which is great for number recognition and fine motor skills. I printed the patterns on cardstock paper ... cut them out and laminated them.

I mixed the robots and gears up so they were not in order and set them out in to separate piles. Children put the robots in numerical order. We did this activity on the floor but you can also do it on a table.

After all of the robots were laid out in order the children then put the gears on the robots with the same numbers. The children can clip them together with clothes pins or large plastic coated paper clips. We did the activity as a sequence match but you can do it as a regular match without putting the robots in numerical order first.

You can grab the patterns for free until Sunday March 26th ... after that they will only be available in the member's section which is also where I have added a robot alphabet match.

birdhouse alphabet match for preschool and kindergarten

birdhouse number match also added to the member's section

The free membership printable this week is a birdhouse alphabet match. I printed the patterns on cardstock paper ... cut them out and then laminated them. I then separated them into two piles ... one for the birdhouses and one for the birds.

This is a great activity for letter recognition and review. The matching set comes with both uppercase as well as lowercase letters so the children can practice matching the letters in a few different ways.

In this activity children pick a birdhouse and match it with the bird with the same letter. We used clothespins to make match and clip activity (and to work on fine motor development) Play continues until all the letters have been matched. You can grab the patterns for free until Sunday April 17th ... after that they will only be available in the member's section which is also where the umbrella number pick and cover is located.

Birdhouse Letter Sliders For Preschool and Kindergarten

I made birdhouse letter sliders for the children to work on letter recognition. I printed the patterns on cardstock paper ... cut them out and then laminated them. I cut the lines on the birdhouses with an exacto knife and set them out with the letter sliders in a basket.

Birdhouse Number Sliders For Preschool and Kindergarten

The children picked a slider and pulled it through the birdhouse. They then identified the letter shown. When they finished with one slider they removed it and put a new one in. Play continues until all of the sliders have been used.

Birdhouse Number Sequence Puzzle

To go along with our spring birds theme I made number sequence puzzles with numbers 1-10 ... 11-20 ... 21-30 ... and skip counting by fives and tens. I printed them out on cardstock paper ... laminated them and cut along the lines so there were ten puzzle strips for each puzzle.

I attached a magnet at the top and bottom of the strips and the children put the puzzles together in numerical order on a metal tray.
