Alpine Animals

My group is working it’s way through each habitat/biome and the animals that live there.  This has been really informative and fun.  This is the second set of cards in the set that I’m making for each habitat/biome.  The first set was for rainforest animals.

This set is for alpine animals.  I found some new ones that I didn’t know belonged.  It’s been educational for me making these as it is for the kids to use them!!  These cards are Montessori inspired and use real images.  They can be used for flashcards, 3-part cards, or many other things.

Here’s a thumbnail view of one of the pages with cards….

Rainforest Animals

We just had a month long theme in my group for habitats.  Additionally, monthly we having animals by biome.  This week we focused on rainforest animals.  I decided to make some rainforest animal cards.

These cards have many uses.  They are Montessori inspired and I used images of real animals.  The cards could be used for flashcards.  Or, they could be 3-part cards where you print out 2 sets and cut one of them apart and match them up to the full card.  They could also be used for memory match or a number of other ways.

All the cards are the same format.  Here’s a thumbnail view of one of the cards….

New Year….New Printables

2013

Well, now that 2013 is here and the hustle and bustle of the holidays is over, I’ll be getting back to creating some new printables!!  I had big plans for Christmas freebies for all of you, but I just couldn’t complete anything other than my 2 Elf on the Shelf items.  Family is so important to me and we really did have a great holiday season.  I know that I didn’t have much for you all and that my blog took a little hit without things being posted, but it was worth it to me in so many ways!! 

This weekend, I have several things going on, so it’ll be next week when I start creating and posting free materials again.  Also, next week I go back to teaching my religion class as Christmas Break will be over.  That means that I’ll be back to posting my weekly Bible Alphabet page.

Thanks for sticking by me and The Schoolhouse little blog!!

Bugs Bunny

I know that it’s been forever (again) since I posted anything.  I’ve really been quite busy with life and also a little discouraged with finding my printables on GigaTribe again.  I just don’t understand the total lack of respect by people who download materials from me or any of the other blogs out there that has items like this available.  Anyway, onto the freebies that I have for you all!!

Yesterday was Bugs Bunny’s birthday, so I had a “challenge” in my group last weekend to make items celebrating this crazy rabbit.  However, my parents were visiting, so I didn’t get to participate in it myself last weekend.  I did get some materials made this week though!!

I created a set of basic puzzles, which are 2-4 pieces each.  There are vertical and horizontal strips, triangles and squares, and 1/2 puzzles.  There’s also a set of 9-piece jigsaw puzzles.  Finally for puzzles, you’ll find a set of number strip puzzles.  Some are numerical order and some are skip counting.

You’ll also find a set of “label the color” cards which feature Bugs face and the color of his face is labeled with the appropriate color.

Next, you’ll get a set of memory cards with a storage box.  There’s 24 images of Bugs Bunny being his silly self on each card.  He’s also seen munching a carrot on the box.  There’s also a Bugs Bunny tic-tac-toe with a couple varieties of tokens….all featuring Bugs.

Circus Train Ordinals

I had big plans for more freebies through the weekend, but I only got one thing created.  That’s alright though, because I celebrated Mother’s Day with my family and did nothing except enjoy my day!!  I did manage to get one item made, and I’m really happy with it.

This is a set of strip cards to place on a ring so the kids can flip through them.  They cover the ordinals of first through twelfth.  The ordinal numeral with the circus act is matched to the ordinal word on the circus train car.

I recommend printing on card stock and then laminating for extra durability.  Also, since they’re ring cards, you want want to attach a small piece of velcro to each train car and the backs of the circus acts.  That way, they won’t fall off if you use them as ring cards and not just cards to lay flat on the table top.

Fill the Wagon with Easter Eggs

I’m finally back and have a new freebie to share!!  Sorry that I was away longer than expected, but it took me awhile to get back in full swing again.  I do hope that you enjoyed the printables that I scheduled to post while I was away.  I still haven’t fixed that typo, but I will this weekend and I’ll post when I do so that you can update your file if you want.

For today, I have an Easter themed counting mat.  This one is Fill the Wagon with Easter Eggs and is for counting 1-15.  The numeral is placed in the box to complete the sentence of “Fill the wagon with __ Easter eggs”, and then that number of eggs is placed in the wagon.

I do plan on making more Easter printables this weekend so that they can be used all next week in school or at home.  Be sure to stay tune!!

Dino-Mite

I’m currently on Spring Break with my daughter and enjoying a little down time. My promise to her was that I wouldn’t be online during this time so that we can do whatever we want on a whim and just have a real break!!

I did want to be able to share this week though, so I’ve scheduled a couple blog posts so that you all can download some goodies while I’m off having a good time!! That said, I had a huge issue trying to upload my files to 4Shared, so if you go to download them, they may….or may not be there. If they’re not, please leave me a comment and when I’m online at the end of Spring Break, I’ll see if I can fix any of the errors.

The dinosaur lover in your class or at home should love these!!  I have Dino-Mite Counting, which has the player placing the numeral on the mat.  They will then place that many dino tokens on the mat.  Please note, there is a spelling error in the directions.  It says numBeral instead of numeral.  I don’t have the font on this computer, so I couldn’t fix it and I don’t have the time or access to do it right now.  Please just mark it out or when I return, I’ll correct it right away.

There’s also Dino-Mite Numbers, where the player places the numeral and the number word on the mat.  This strictly works on the skill of being able to match and correspond them correctly.  Both mats are for 0 to 25.

Clouds

I’m currently on Spring Break with my daughter and enjoying a little down time.  My promise to her was that I wouldn’t be online during this time so that we can do whatever we want on a whim and just have a real break!!

I did want to be able to share this week though, so I’ve scheduled a couple blog posts so that you all can download some goodies while I’m off having a good time!!  That said, I had a huge issue trying to upload my files to 4Shared, so if you go to download them, they may….or may not be there.  If they’re not, please leave me a comment and when I’m online at the end of Spring Break, I’ll see if I can fix any of the errors.

Today, I have a couple printables for clouds. The first is Layers of Clouds and it’s a mat to place images of the clouds in the appropriate altitude.  They are also labeled whether or not the cloud type has precipitation in them.  There’s also Types of Clouds Label Cards.  These cards have images of clouds and they have to be labeled with their correct cloud type.

I made these for my daughter, thinking that even through they’re somewhat simple for her age, she’d need to repeat the cloud types and layers over and over to get them down.  Her science book really focused on that this year.  I’m happy to say that she breezed right through and didn’t even need them, but I’m hoping that all of you can still benefit from them!!

Lucky Leprechaun Counting

Here’s another freebie printable for St. Patrick’s Day.  It’s also probably the last since it’s the day before the green holiday, but hopefully some of you can still use them…..or save it until next year!!

This is Lucky Leprechaun Counting and is a set of 3-part counting cards.  The lucky horseshoes are counted and matched to the numeral on the leprechauns hat and the number word on the pot of gold.  They are for numbers 0-25.

This is an item that I was asked to share before the end of my Seuss-icle week was over.  It’s a ffg (file folder game) called There’s a Wocket in My Pocket Color Match Pockets.  You can cut slits in the top of the pockets to insert the color word Wockets that match the color of the pockets.  Or, you can simply just play to match them up.  There’s 2 versions….one is very colorful and will take lots of ink and the other is low ink.  They’re the same, just depends on how much ink you want to use!!
