Learning Station - Cup Stomp

 In cleaning out my cupboards I found:  CUPS!  I wrote the letters and some sight words and names on the cups.  

Then I sent each kiddo out with an errand to find a particular cup and stomp it!  A bit of mayhem and lots of fun.

Clean up...

Learning Station - Glowing Abc Hunt

With the lights off, we were able to use our glowing eggs to find hidden letters.  I found these on super clearance!!

Learning Station - Running the Number Line -

I called out a number and the kiddos ran to it.  They also ran to their age, to Ms. Sara's favorite number ...

Learning Station - Rolling Ramp

The kiddos had to find at least 5 toys that could roll (or scooch) down the ramp.  Only 1 toy could have wheels.  It was fun to see what they picked.  (marker, tp tube, block, pirate,  ...)

Learning Station - Wind

Toddlers:  The kiddos used their wind to blow the feathers on the table.  That was pretty fun!  They were super excited to move the feathers just by blowing.

Preschoolers: We raced to see who could get theirs across the table first.

Learning Station - Watery Abc Match

This was great, accept the water was a bit chilly.   The kiddos fished out a letter and found it's match on the driveway.

This kiddo quite enjoyed making whirlpools. 

 

Learning Station - Name Erase

The kiddos wrote their name in pencil, then erased it!  It was harder than they thought!

Learning Station - Egg Carton Count

The egg cartons had a pom pom in them and numbers written in each cup.  The kiddos shut the lid, shook it and then opened it to find which number the pom pom landed on.  Then they needed to create a Lego tower that many tall.

The kiddos really enjoyed doing this!

Learning Station - Play Dough Kk Words

I wrote up a list of Kk words that we have been talking about this week.  The kiddos needed to stamp at least three words...

 

These cool letter play dough stamps are from Lakeshore Learning.  I just have the lowercase set.

Learning Station - Abc Knock Down

The kiddos tried to knock down a letter of the alphabet with a ball.  They (mostly) told me the letter name and or sound when they did so. 

 Ha!  Some how the dinosaurs got involved!

Learning Station - Kicking - Kk

The kiddos drew the letter K (straight line down, find the belly button and then kick one leg up and one leg down) then they could kick the chair over!  So very fun and a bit crazy!!!

 

Learning Station - Karate Chop Kk

The kiddos made the letter K with play dough, then they would KARATE CHOP it!  You've got to yell it, much more fun that way!

 

Learning Station - Feed the Frog - Toddler

So fun to feed our froggie!  I used a Parmesan container and put googly eyes on pom poms to create a frog for the kiddos to feed.

Learning Station - Fish Counting

Yum!  The kiddos counted out fishes, then ate them!

Learning Station - Finding Letters

The kiddos picked a letter from the bucket and then hide to find it's match on their paper.  Then they got to stamp it.  So fun.

Learning Station - Adding Sticks

Learning Station - Adding Sticks - The kiddos counted out sticks to match the domino, then added all the sticks together!

Learning Station - Airplane Folding

I taught the kiddos how to fold a simple airplane.  A couple kiddos showed me how they fold airplanes.  Cool!  The kiddos flew their airplanes together to see how far they could get them. 

The toddlers enjoyed simply throwing paper airplanes.

Learning Station - Penny Pick Up - Astronauts

This was HARD!  The kiddos put on Mr. Adam's BIG snow gloves to pretend they were astronauts and then they tried to pick up pennies!  It was fun to see the strategies they came up with and how they helped each other.

Learning Station - Leprechaun Money Count

The kiddos drew a card, and counted that many coins into the cupcake pan.  They LOVED the leprechaun coins and asked if they could take them home.  So enjoy.  Ha!

I just drew shamrocks with Sharpie on milk lids.

Toddlers - These cuties enjoyed just moving the "coins" from the bin to their jars.

Learning Station - Lucky Charms Graphing

The kiddos sorted out their cereal, then graphed their marshmallows.  Once done they counted each shape and wrote the number below.  We also talked about which shape they had the most of, if they had any shapes that were the same number etc...
