SUBTRACTION WINTER CRAFT

If you've been around for awhile you know that I LOVE craftivities. I think they are so much more fun than just the regular day to day lessons and even more than random stations. I typically tend to hate station games and cut out cards because they get lost and what not. #iykyk Over winter break I was trying to prep to come back and I knew I wanted to start doing a math craft every Friday. I am a creature of habit and routine, so I want to start doing Monday-Thursday stations and Friday craftivities. I saw a few subtraction craftivities on pinterest, but they weren't really sparking my interest. I wanted something different than something being eaten and it needed to be winter themed. So penguins on and off an iceberg just popped into my head.   I decided to first let my kids color the penguins. I also made them number the back because I knew they would be all over the ground and no one would know which are theirs. So we did that, but it took longer than expected so I collected...

Lucky Charms Writing

 Friday we made these little cereal boxes. I had it up on our front board and they were so shocked at how much it looked like a real cereal box lol. I printed it out in black and white so they could color it how they want. I try to do a mix of craftivities where they use colored cardstock and then some they can be creative and make it however they want!  I tried to tell them they didn't have to write a whole sentence because a. the pictures are small / they have big handwriting and b.

I labeled them at the beginning of the year and we are still going strong!!! That was probably one of my top ten ideas ever as a Kindergarten teacher. It helps responsibility because no one wants to lose their ca...

End Of The Year Stuff!

Item 1: Key Chain Tag Okay so my 'sentimental' gifts always seem to be a hit. I'm a huge fan of sentimental gifts, not sure why though lol. These key chains above were purchased from  Teacher Class Gifts on Instagram . I bought them when I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night last October. My friend, Lori, posted about them and I thought they were too cute. They didn't make it in time for Christmas gifts, so I just saved them. Not to worry, you can use any key chains. You can find key chains on oriental trader, target, amazon, etc. I attached them to the little tag that talks about putting it on their new book bag( you can find it here ). I originally used this quote with Christmas ornaments in 2018, again huge hit on the gram LOL.    Item 2: Crafts from the Year I'm obsessed with craftivities. Basically it is a learning activity with a craft, which = super cute. I for some reason decided to keep all of their work this year. Most of it wa...
