I will be giving 20% off all of my products. Be sure to get your wishlists ready and take advantage of this 28% off opportunity.
I've recently added two new products to my store. Here's a peak.
The first is a book companion for "If You Give a Pig a Pancake".
My original inspiration for using this book actually came over the summer. I was at Marshall's and saw this ADORABLE spatula in their "impulse buy heaven" of a checkout line. It was $2 and I had to have it. I pinned it then but haven't done anything with it. Until now.
I'd seen those of things on pinterest involving flipping "pancakes" as an activity. Many of the items in this pack are pancakes. So, break out your pink spray paint, head to the dollar store for a cookie sheet, and get to crafting! That's what I'm gonna do anyway...
There are a variety of preschool/Kindergarden topics covered.
Pages 2-4: props for story retelling, sequencing, story elements, and for use as visuals for a variety of tasks
Pages 5-7: Comprehension/Inferential questions & Pages 7-8: General Wh- questions
Pages 9-11: CVC words with /p, b, m, n, t, d/
Pages 12-20: Initial, medial, and final /g, k, f/ & Pages 21-24: l blends, s blends
Pages 25-27: Phonemic awareness - word segmentation using compound words
Pages 28-29: Regular plurals
Pages 30-32: Sentence structure targeting is/are, with a pancake per word (for those who omit the helping verb)

I also made a simple balloon themed phonemic awareness pack. It targets initial sounds and rhyming.
Initial sounds:
Cute little clowns are holding balloons that have letters in them. The letters are grouped according to age of acquisition and manner of production: B, P, M, N, T, D & K, G, F, W, H.
There are 8 picture flashcards per sound. Draw one card at a time. Students can use dry erase markers or bingo chips (if the sheets are laminated) to cross out that picture's initial sound. First one to "pop" all of their balloons, wins. You could also use dot painters or finger paint to "pop" the balloons, if you don't mind the sheets not being reusable.

I included some clowns with blank balloons in case you'd like to group your sound differently. Or you could target lower case letters or a mix of upper and lower.
Rhyming:
These mats have a bear and an alligator holding balloons. Their balloons have pictures in them. There are 15 picture cards (with words, so there's no confusion) to draw. Students pop ALL of the balloons on their mat that rhyme with the word. First to pop all of their balloons, wins.

Hope you enjoy the sale and my new downloads. I'll be enjoying some greasy food and vats full of bleu cheese dressing. Sadly, I'm not kidding.

These packs look great! Love the 'If you Give' books. Thanks for your labors. As far as pragmatic "stuff", I would have to say anything dealing with body language. I don't currently have many kiddos with pragmatic goals, but we seem to touch the topic anyhow. egn@itctel.com
ReplyDeleteThere are so many great things about this book....and now an activity packet, too! Regarding pragmatic skills, my students with those needs require work on several areas--one that stands out currently is how to enter a conversation or game appropriately.
ReplyDeleteThese packets look great! I would love to see more pragmatics materials on conversation maintenance. Conversation starters are quick and easy but conversation maintenance is a bit more complicated. Just a thought!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful packet. Always looking for new preschool themed materials.
ReplyDeleteI equally need both receptive and expressive materials.
ReplyDeleteWow huge pack. Love it! So comprehensive!
ReplyDeleteI am loving this packet! I am always looking for more expressive language materials!
ReplyDeleteLove the pigs! My caseload has a lot of diversity, so just about any language activities would be useful. I really like the companion packets for books.
ReplyDeleteReally cute idea! I need to find all of these "If you give a ....." books.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great variety of activities! Enjoy your vat of blue cheese dressing- I will be right there with you! - Jen
ReplyDeleteI like both receptive and expressive! Love activities that go with books :)
ReplyDeleteExpressive!!!
ReplyDeleteI totally want this!
ReplyDeleteLove! Love! Love!
ReplyDeleteThese packets look super cute! I'm always looking for new preschool materials.
ReplyDeleteBoth activities are wonderful! I'd love the Piggy Pancakes! :) My caseload is quite diverse this year, but both receptive and expressive needs are evident.
ReplyDeleteThese packets look adorable ~ especially the "If You Give a Pig a Pancake" one. I need both expressive and receptive langauge materials, and I'm always looking for something new for my kiddos!
ReplyDeleteI never seem to have enough why and how questions.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I could certainly use both, but if forced to choose..... probably receptive activities would be utilized more often.
