U is for Unleavened Bread

Another week and another color & write page for the Bible ABC’s.  I can’t believe that we don’t have many letter left this year!!

This one is “U is for Unleavened Bread”. This time, they get to color a round cake of unleavened bread and a stack of square pieces.  I hope that this page is not only good for you with the Bible alphabet, but also other lessons and reviews.

Here’s a thumbnail view of the unleavened bread sheet….

T is for Ten Commandments

I’m so happy because it just so happens that my Bible ABC page goes along with my lesson today!!

This one is “T is for Ten Commandments”. The children will color a picture of the stone tablets with roman numerals on them. This page would not only be good for the Bible alphabet, but other Bible lessons and reviews.

Here’s a thumbnail view of today’s page….

Looking for Dr. Seuss??

Are you looking for printables to use in your classroom, at home, or in your daycare to celebrate the birthday of Dr. Seuss??  Maybe you just want some fun activities to keep the kids busy on the weekend or after school.  No matter the reason, I have what you need!!

I have lots of free printables to share with you.  In some of the links that I’m about to post, you might find some duplicates, but many won’t be.  Just take your time and browse around!!

On my blog, Commotion from the Ocean of Life, you’ll find a bunch of stuff for “Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss“.  Once upon a time, that’s where I used to share all my printables that I created!!

Next, some of you might remember the “Seuss-icle Followers Contest” that I held right here on this blog.  This contest lasted a week and I offered freebies each day.  Here you can find each of those posts and see just what I offered each day.

With luck and time, I’ll be creating some new materials this week.  Things have just been crazy busy and I’m barely keeping my head above the water right now!!  Keep your eyes open though and hopefully you’ll see something new featuring Dr. Seuss coming your way!!

**PLEASE NOTE: Dr. Seuss, Books, and Characters © Seuss Enterprises – I in no way lay claim to ownership of the characters, images, books, or anything else pertaining to Dr. Seuss.  All printables are for educational purposes only!!**

S is for Shepherd

Back for a brand new page of my Bible ABC’s!!

This one is “S is for Shepherd”.  The children will color the picture of the shepherd tending to his sheep.  This page would not only be good for the Bible alphabet, but other Bible lessons and reviews.

Here’s a thumbnail view of today’s page….

R is for Rainbow

I had to hurry through today’s color and write Bible alphabet page, but it’s ready to go!!

This week’s page is “R is for Rainbow”.  I can’t help but to love this page and the way hubby drew it!!  I like the hill and the way the rainbow meets the land, plus, I adore that little puff cloud.  This would be a great page to use with Noah also!!

Here’s a thumbnail view of of the new page….

Q is for Queen

It’s time for a new Bible ABC page again!!

This week’s page is “Q is for Queen”.  This is a queen in general, but could easily be used for Queen Esther.   Each week, I do one of these pages as a warm-up with my class, but they could be used for a lesson, a review, or so many other things.

Here’s a thumbnail view of of the new page….

P is for Prayer

It’s time for a new writing and coloring page.  We’re over half way through the alphabet, so that means that we’re more than half way through the school year.

This page is “P is for Prayer”.  This page features a boy and girl, each on their knees praying.  I love the details that these kids have to them.  Each week, I do one of these pages as a warm-up with my class, but they could be used for a lesson, a review, or so many other things.

Here’s a thumbnail view of of the page….

Fishing Penguins Count Their Catch

I have a new freebie for you today and it was created for a request from one of my group members.  She wanted a counting activity with penguins, so here it is!!

These are a set of counting mats from 0-20.  They feature adorable fishing penguins.  To make it fun and rewarding, use Goldfish Crackers to count out the number of fish that each penguin caught.  If you don’t want to do that, I included some printable Goldfish Crackers or you could use another manipulative such as fish erasers.  Each mat has the numeral and number word.

Here’s a thumbnail view of the mats in this set….

O is for Olive Branch

Can you believe that it’s mid-month already??  We just started this new year and now we’re half way through the first month.  I just don’t like when time goes this fast.  I have the new Bible alphabet page today to share.

This page is “O is for Olive Branch”.  I like this page and the way it turned out.  Alright, so there’s not many that I don’t “like”, but I love working with hubby on these.  We’re a good team and I hope that you and your kids enjoy them as much as we do making them!! Each week, I do one of these pages as a warm-up with my class, but they could be used for a lesson, a review, or so many other things.

N is for Noah

Here’s the first Bible ABC page of 2013!!  I can’t believe that it’s been 3 weeks since I’ve done one of these and 2 weeks that we’ve been out of class.  I’ve missed my kiddos, but I wish that I had just one more week to relax!!

This page is “N is for Noah”.  I really like the way hubby drew this one.  I hope that you and your kids do too!!  Each week, I do one of these pages as a warm-up with my class.  My hubby is kind enough to draw each one for me.

Here’s a thumbnail view of of the page….

Here’s the “M is for Moses” page. Moses is parting the Red Sea, and I have to say that I really like this one!!  I’ve created my own page for each letter of the alphabet and each of these page contains letter writing and a word from the Bible. The images are hand-drawn by my wonderful husband!!
