Creative Ideas for Your Elementary Classroom

Students place the clothespin labeled with their name on the appropriate cow to show the teacher quickly and visually if they would like to order white or chocolate milk that day for snack time.  This saves time for teacher and creates a fun little class-entry activity for the students.



Students move the sand around in order to find each letter of the alphabet hidden in the sand.
They then color the corresponding letter on their "alphabet sheet"
 the same color as the one they found in the sand.

Students turn the wheel to review how silent "e" changes the sound of the middle consonant. 

Students take turns drawing numbers and then counting out the number of beans or counters as the number card that was drawn.

Students then place the beans in the appropriately-labeled eggs and 
organize them in order from smallest to largest.

Finally, students clip their drawn cards on the clothespin number line in order from smallest to largest to reinforce counting skills.
