Easter hen craftivity or the last day before spring break

Craftivities, Foldables, Freebies, Spanish, Store

We did it!

After a long term we finally are approaching spring break. 
I wanted to share with you a cute hen craftivity that we did. We wanted to make something quick an easy and use some foam Easter eggs we had so this is what I came up with.
We gave the template to the kids on colored sheets and after some modelling they started to work on their own. First graders are so independent at this time of the year.
They had some trouble with the flap in the wing but they managed to help each other. The nest was made of brown scrap paper.
And check other fun craft available in the blog.

Spring brings flowers to the classroom!

Craftivities, Foldables, Freebies, Spanish, Store
We are finishing our plants unit and the kids wanted to make BIG flowers. I have done lots of guided drawing and print and go craftivities with them so I decided they were ready to create on their own.

We revised the parts of the plant  with Parts of a plant foldable and I created a big anchor chart with their help. 
I explained all the steps and we decided how many sheets of paper they would use and how big their flowers would be.
Then we started. It took us two sessions but it was worth it. 
We also added ten sunflower seeds on each flower.

I am a teacher…  I thought I could use this activity as an evaluation so I created this labels to be completed and added to the final craft.

Studying ca co cu que qui

Craftivities, Foldables, Freebies, Spanish, Store

WOW! I can’t believe how long I have waited to write a new post.
Lots of new things are going on and I have totally neglected my blog. New house, new school and new city!

I had been teaching in the same school for 6 years. This year I moved to my hometown and started in a new school. I won’t be able to post school photos for now so I guess I’l have to provide freebies instead.


This year I am teaching first grade again. 🙂 I have been creating some resources to teach Spanish spelling: This week I’ll share some resources for

 

ca   co   cu   que   qui

We started we an anchor chart and some word brainstorm.
Then we move on with the worksheets.

I created a first worksheet with lots of pictures to classify sounds. Painting each sound with a different color.

The second worksheet was created to cut and and glue each picture on their notebooks. then they folded it like a little door and wrote the words under the flap.

Nothing is complete without a game. This is a simple tetris game but it helps with review. It is simple but it works.
