Summer Share and Prepare

I'm It's time for round 2 of  Summer Share and Prepare!! I enjoyed this link up so much last week. I enjoyed seeing other great products and adding to my TPT wish list!! Last weeks share and prepare was all about Pete the cat!

This week I want to share with you my farm unit. This unit is our first dip into non-fiction and class research! My kiddos enjoyed the math and literacy activities in the pack and I enjoyed creating them:) This pack is loaded with 158 pages of farm fun! This unit would work at the beginning of the year for kinder or first grade. 

Here are a few pics of my kiddos in action!

Summer- Share and Prepare

 

I am linking up with Marie from Once Upon a Classroom: A Teacher's Tales for this share and prepare linky party. What a great way to share ideas and products to help each other be more prepared for the next school year! This week I am sharing a unit that is a HUGE hit with my kinders. WE LOVE PETE THE CAT! My kiddos were begging to read about Pete!! This is such a fun unit to kick off the year. The man that draws Pete is an Auburn University graduate and even though I am a die hard Alabama fan I think it is incredible that he lived in our state. My kinders think it awesome that a famous artist went to a college that is pretty well know around here and is close to us as well.

This unit also got a makeover recently with the #tptsellerchallenge

These are some of the Pete books I have. When the book fair came at the end of the year I added a few more to the collection.

This is the letter matching activity.  They match upper and lower case letters. As you can see Daleni spelled her name after she matched the letters. She was very proud of herself:)

QR codes are something that my kids really enjoy doing. I try to have 1 to 2 QR centers each week. One for literacy and one for math. For this center they scan the code and then color the matching letter on the recording sheet.

For some reason these are the only pictures I could find of my kinders in action with the activities in this unit. I'm sure it's because I was in the beginning of the year teacher fog!!! 

Here are the activities that are included in this unit. 

Literacy activities: QR code letters, write the room, letter match, teeny tiny letters, spin a vowel and a sight word font sort.

Math activities: 10 frame match up, spin and graph shapes, playdoh number mats, count the room, roll and trace numbers.

There are a few writing activities as well. Label Pete and I'm rocking in my shoes! 

Groovy Fun with Pete the Cat is $3.00 in my TPT store. You can click on the preview pictures to link to this unit.
