I recently saw that someone used inexpensive glass pebbles with stickers on the tops for alphabet activities for their children. So, I searched and found a great tutorial to some adorable magnets with letters and super cute scrapbook paper. I can't wait to try these this weekend. Here's a link to the tutorial. If you decide to make these, be sure to send me a link in the comments section. I'd love to see what others come up with, too!

Nursery Rhyme Printables
Thanks to Vanessa at PreKinders for the absolutely fabulous nursery rhyme printables! I can't wait to print these for our daily reading binders. My students are going to love using highlighters, wikki stix and whisper phones to read these rhymes. I love that they are simple and focus on the text. I'm shocked that they are free!

Nursery Rhymes & Coloring Pages
This year I have decided to add a few nursery rhymes and fairy tales to my Reading/Writing units. It seems like so many little kiddos don't know a lot of rhymes that they can recite from memory and I thought this might help.
I stumbled across the following sites and they have lots of printables. I was specifically looking for a printable for The Three Little Kittens for our Reading Binders, but thought some of these were cute, too.

Counting 11-20
Last year I attended a math workshop at our nearest Regional Professional Development Center and we were discussing how many students have difficulty learning the numbers 11-19, specifically. The presenter was kind enough to research a few things and she came up with this book for 11-20. I hope it will come in handy for some of you, too. If you aren't already a member, you can sign up for a free 7 day trial to print the booklet.

Printable Alphabet Sounds Photo Cards from Lakeshore
I love using real pictures when teaching Kdg. students. I adore cutesy graphics, but find that real photos are typically easier to identify. These freebies from Lakeshore would be a wonderful resource for parents, too.

Reading Strategies Cards
I just found these reading strategies cards at Pre-K Pages. I plan to print them to use in our book boxes. I may not even cut them apart.
