2D Shape Sorting

Who loves the dollar store as much as I do?  I would go there every week if I could.  I found the neatest containers there the other day.  There are 4 shape containers for $1.  I thought they would be a perfect shape sorting activity for my Little Cutie.

 

 

To do the activity you will need to buy the containers from the Dollar Tree.

 

Then cut out the four basic shapes: rectangle, square, circle, and triangle.  I used all different colors of fun foam.  You can also use paper. 

 Set out the containers and shapes, and have your child or student sort them.

Little Cutie did really well, and it was a perfect activity for her to do while I was making dinner. :)

 

 See you all soon!

 

I Know the Letter...A

Good evening everyone!  I hope you are having a wonderful night.  I wanted to stop by and show you my new series, I Know the Letters.  The first letter I have completed and posted to TPT is letter A.  Little Cutie and I had fun playing some of the games and doing the worksheets.  Check out some of the letter A activities we did:

Little Cutie gluing items that begin with A in the correct shape.  She did so well with this.  Don't you just love how she sticks out her tongue when she is concentrating?:)

 Next, Little Cutie would say a color and we would pick up that apple to see if the uppercase A or the lowercase a was under it.

 

  Then we sorted the A's in the correct container.
 

We added the letter A car to The Alphabet Express.

These pages you search and find the letter in the middle of the mat.

These A books include words that begin with the letter a.

The colorful A's is where the students roll the A cube and a die.  They will trace the 'a' the color they rolled on the die. 

Students will roll the A cube to race to the apple on this page.

I love to make file folder games.  This one students will trace and write the letter Aa.  Then sort the A's  on the tree, and the apples that are not A's in the apple basket.

Students will use play dough to make the letter.

 

This is our tracing page.  With a hot glue gun trace the letters.  Students will then trace the letters with their finger.

Thanks for stopping by!

My Sweet Little One

Good morning everyone!  I wanted to stop by the blog to let you know some exciting news.  On December 17th I had my second child, a sweet little boy.  He is such a good baby.  I have so much love for him.  My 2 year old loves her little brother too.  She always asks me, "Kiss him?"  Then she will kiss him on the forehead 2 to 3 times.  I love being a mom! 

 

Have a wonderful Sunday!
