There are several
activities available on each theme page.
Here's how to use them!
To
use a magnet page, begin by printing off the
worksheet. Purchase circular Expo Brand
whiteboard magnets. I have seen them at Sam's Club,
sometimes packaged with push pins, or on EBay.
Have the children put the paper on a cookie sheet.
I recommend the Bakers Secret brand one that is
9x13. Have the children complete the picture
by putting a magnet in each circle. Some
people use pompoms or bingo markers with them.
This activity is designed to promote one to one
correspondence and letter recognition.
If you have older kids, these magnets can also be
used with the
Magnet Mosaics.
To use an Easel Painting, begin by printing the page. Cut
the top and bottom rows apart leaving a blank space
on the end of the top row. Glue the bottom row
onto that space. Laminate. Clip this to
the top of your easel. Now the children follow
the directions to paint the picture. If you
have preschoolers, you will probably need to model a
painting the first few times you use these.
Easel Paintings are designed to help children
transpose what they see. Some people also cut
these apart and use them for a sequencing activity.
Magic Nuudle pages are designed to use with Magic
Nuudles. They have a website where you can
purchase them. If you want to do it the cheap
way, use packing peanuts. This activity is
designed to promote one to one correspondence and
letter recognition.
Bingo Marker pages are designed to be used with
Bingo markers or Do a Dot brand markers. They
are designed as large open pictures that accommodate
the wide marker tips. They work great as coloring
pages as well.
