I use this at the beginning of the school year to help my kindergartners differentiate when it is a "good time" to get up and go to the bathroom or get water, and when it is "not a good time." We refer back to it often throughout the year.

The packet includes all you need to assign an at home animal research project. Included is parent letter (you just need to fill in the due date), and the template page for each student to fill in and present.

This sheet is a super fun way to make the children's dice rolling game, "Cootie" even MORE educational and keep your students accountable for their center work using shapes, counting, color words, adjectives, and tally marks.

This is the letter I send home to my parents after discussing our school rules. There is a section at the bottom for them to sign and return when they've reviewed it with their child. Some of the references in the letter are to the book, Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse by Kevin Henkes and by the Love and Logic concept.

In our classroom, we create this book by doing a page a day as we focus on each of the 5 senses. The children choose on thing that they can see, smell, touch, taste, or hear and draw a picture of it on the page as well as writing the word on the line. As we study each of the senses, I also have them draw a picture of the corresponding body part on the cover of the book.

We do this activity as a whole group when we are working on the maps and globes standards and cardinal directions (north, south, east, west).

We use this template on the day that we focus on our sense of hearing. Create and number 5 "sound boxes" (I use small gift boxes.) by filling with things the children are familiar with. I also have a second set of the same objects that are inside the boxes for the children to look at and choose from. I show them examples of the 5 things that are in the boxes (penny, toy car, rubber ball, unifix cube, jack, etc- I also try to use things that are all different colors so we can tell what the childr

We use this in class after looking at the cover of the book and before reading so children can make a prediction of what the story will be about.
