October FUN Will Soon Be Here!

An Oldie Worth Re-posting:

October Math The KFUN Way:

Give each student a plain black cat and 20 cents.
Set up a store with craft supplies where they can "buy" the parts
to decorate their cats.  No two cats will look alike!
Or: Create The Monster Mall:

Here is another shopping activity.
Give each child a green square for the face and 10 cents.
They buy the pieces to create their own monster.

More Halloween FUN:

Use a slice of a pool noodle to create these 5 Little Pumpkins and teach ordinal numbers.

Halloween Sight Word FUN:

Practicing color sight words has never been so much fun and your students can make an easy reading book to take home and share with their families.

This is a color version of the black line book cover.

I usually complete one page a day with my students in a whole group setting.  The book contains 9 pages plus the cover, so we complete it over two weeks, but you can also complete several pages at one time in a small group setting.

Here are the directions.

One the first page, the students copy the sight word "Black" and color the cat black.

On the next page, they copy the sight word "Orange" and color the pumpkins orange.

This is my favorite page:  I see a green monster looking at me!

They continue in this manner until all of the characters end up at a Halloween party.

Have You Seen My Pocket Lockets?

My students beg to make these each week.  They can make a sight word pocket watch or a sight word locket.  This is how:

First, they trace the letters and numbers.

Next, they cut out the pocket-locket.

Then, they cut out the individual letters of the sight word.

Next, they glue on the letters on in the correct order.

Last, they add a piece of yarn.

They can wear it in their pockets as a pocket watch or around their necks as a locket.

This set contains 18 sight words plus a blank
pocket-locket so you can add more sight words.

You can grab two FREE Pocket Lockets by clicking RIGHT HERE.

More Sight Word Fun:

Shaving cream creates the perfect surface for writing sight words.
And when you're all done, just clean it up and your desks are nice and clean!

I Promised to Post About this FREEBIE:

If you saw my webinar...

... for the teachers of Santa Cruz earlier this week, you know that I promised to post about the cute Text & Spell phones that my friend, Traci Clausen created.

They come in black or white.

Once you copy them, laminate them so students can write on the screen with dry erase pens and easily clean them off.

My students started writing their name on the screen and then texting their name with their thumbs.

They also texted sight words, one at a time and texted them.

Later, they wrote short sentences, like "I like you." or "I have a cat."

They also texted their sentences. 

It was such a fun way to motivate children to spell words and it's FREE! 

Thank you, Traci, for a wonderful resource!
