Falling Leaves! Leaf Identification Flashcards and Matching Activity

September 8, 2020 by Selena Robinson 37 Comments

Fall is nearly here!

I love summer, but fall is a close runner-up for my favorite time of year.

The leaves change colors, the weather gets cool, plus we get to start baking and knitting!

Feathered Friends! Printable Bird Identification Flashcards

February 13, 2020 by Selena Robinson 1 Comment

The air is getting warmer and we’ve started noticing flocks of birds flying in a “V” formation around our town. Even Piglet shouts “All those birds, Mama!” when she sees them.

They’re returning here after the winter. Soon we’ll be hearing them sing in the mornings again!

So I thought our next set of printable flashcards should be a set of bird identification flashcards!

These are so simple for a spring science activity. They’re also a wonderful fit for a fall unit, particularly if you’re studying migration.

Read on to see how to get your set. And, for more about our feathered friends, don’t miss our list of beautiful children’s books about birds!

Printable Bird Identification Flashcards

To use these printable bird identification flashcards, you’ll need the following: (This post contains affiliate links. For details, see our Disclosure Policy.)

Printer (with ink)
Printer paper
Scissors
Laminator (if you want the flashcards to last for a while)

In this set of flashcards, you’ll find identification cards for 12 different kinds of birds, including:

Sea Gull
Finch
Osprey
Toucan
Pigeon
Hoopoe
Cardinal
Owl
Hummingbird
Puffin
Pelican
And Quail!

Let the kids try guessing which animals match up with the species you see in your neighborhood!

How to Use Printable Bird Identification Flashcards

One of the simplest ways to use these bird species identification cards is to memorize birds by their pictures and then quiz students as a review.

Since one set of the cards has pictures of the birds only, make the picture cards into a “Guess Who?” game!

These would also be wonderful for a spring or fall nature walk!

Use a hole puncher to put a hole in the top left corner of each card and place all of them on a ring.

Then take the flashcards with you as the kids try to see how many species they can spot in your area!

Easy Fall Leaf Garland Craft for Kids

September 19, 2019 by Selena Robinson 4 Comments

Since fall finally made its appearance down here in the South, we decided to round up some of the fall leaves in our yard and make a garland.

I’ll admit: I’m not really one for home decor. I didn’t learn much about it as a child and I’ve been a tad stubborn about doing it as an adult.

But, after sharing this easy fall leaf garland craft with the kids, I’m committed to adding a bit more “home” to our house.

This is a really simple fall craft that kids will have fun making. It’s easy, it only requires a few supplies, and it adds a sweet reminder of fall to the home.

For more fun fall kids’ activities, don’t miss our list of 50 fall books kids will treasure!

Easy Fall Leaf Garland Craft for Kids

To make this DIY fall leaf garland craft, you’ll need the following: (This post contains affiliate links. For details, see our Disclosure Policy.)

Assorted fall leaves (choose the most colorful you can find)
Tempera paint (optional)
Paintbrushes (optional)
Clear tape
Bright yellow yarn
Hole puncher

Rather than making leaves out of construction paper or some other medium, we just thought we’d hang actual leaves.

We let them dry out for a couple of weeks so they’d be easy to punch holes in.

Choose your leaves about two weeks before you intend to make your garland. Sit them on a counter or in a plastic bag so that they’ll have plenty of time to stiffen before you make the craft.

I helped the kids place the hole punch, but they pushed the lever (which they loved).

To keep the holes from spreading and cracking the leaves, we punched them as close to the center as possible and towards the stem end.

Since these leaves were just brown, we wanted to add a bit more color.

Tempera paint to the rescue!

We didn’t choose any particular art designs in advance. It was more of a “paint and see what happens” open-ended art activity.

All that was left to do was string the leaves on our yarn!

When we made a fall leaf garland a few years ago, we found lots of different colored leaves.

Those were gorgeous as is, so we just hole punched them all and let the kids get started stringing the leaves on a long piece of yarn.

Everyone had a designated pile to work with and they took turns adding their leaves to the garland.

This was such a nice afternoon activity. Threading the leaves was good fine motor practice for the kids.

We all had fun choosing leaves together. And it was nice to see something we made together hanging in the home all autumn long.

Pumpkin Places! Kindergarten Ordinal Number Lesson for Kids

September 24, 2018 by Selena Robinson 1 Comment

Scarecrow Syllables for Second Graders Activity

September 20, 2018 by Selena Robinson 3 Comments

It’s time for another entry in our second grade activity series!

This week, we’re talking about how to help second graders count and identify syllables in common words.

In second grade, we tend to start helping students read slightly longer words. And that’s when it’s good to start sounding out syllables.

To add a fun fall theme to this concept, we’re sharing a fun Scarecrow Syllables for Second Grade activity!

This printable activity is an excellent literacy builder for early elementary students!

And, depending on your students’ vocabulary skills, it may even be useful in third grade classes as well.

And for more early elementary learning, take a look at our Superhero States of Matter Science Lesson! It’s an excellent and easy hands-on science lab for early grades.

Help students learn to count syllables in vocabulary words with this scarecrow themed syllable counting activity!

How to Teach Syllables in Early Grades

With our second grader, we use the typical “clap it out” method to count syllables.

So we’ll have him say a word and then for each sound he hears, he claps his hands.

For example, when he says the word “amazing”, he’ll end up clapping three times: A-MAZ-ING.

That helps him see that there are three syllables in the word.

Scarecrow Syllable Counting Lesson for Elementary

Before we got started with the lesson, I asked my second grader if he knew what syllables were.

His response: “Oh yeah, I learned that in school.”

Me: “Really? What are they?”

Him: “They’re all the letters in a word.”

Scarecrow Syllables for Second Grade Pack - Look! We're Learning!

He was really serious about that explanation.

After we talked about what syllables really were, we tried matching up the words with the right number of scarecrows.

The “clap it out” method worked beautifully!

Scarecrow Themed Syllable Counting Activity

Kids can sound out the words and count the syllables in each word.

There are one-syllable words, two-syllable words, and three-syllable words on each page.

Then students can draw lines to match the words with the correct number of scarecrows to show the right number of syllables.

Turn this into a reusable activity by printing the pages half size and then laminating them.

Leaves Math: Even and Odd for Second Grade

August 27, 2018 by Selena Robinson 8 Comments

The concept of even and odd is one of those math topics that I know, but I don’t know how I know it, you know?

I know that 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 are odd numbers and I know that 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 are even numbers, but I have no recollection of how that concept was taught to me in the beginning.

So when it was time to teach even and odd for second grade, I was at a bit of a loss with my kids.

That’s just one more reason why I’m so thankful to be homeschooling. It helps me “re-learn” some things that I just know so that I can explain them to my kids and others.

Check out how we learned about even and odd numbers and grab a fun fall-themed learning resource to help you work on this concept with your kids!

Share even more fall learning fun with this list of 50 beautiful fall books for kids!

Leaves Even and Odd for Second Grade

To use these leaves even and odd for second grade printables, you’ll need the following: (Affiliate links are included in this post. For details, see our Disclosure Policy.)

This product includes three separate leaf-themed even and odd practice worksheets.

Each worksheet includes a group of leaves arranged in an array. That way, kids can draw lines to pair up each set.

Then they can count the total of leaves and write the number, as well as whether the number is even or odd. (Hint: If a group of leaves has an extra leaf that doesn’t have a match, then it’s an odd number!)

A full answer key is also provided.

So, if you like, you can print the answer keys for kids to check their own progress!

How to Use Leaf Even and Odd Practice Printables

One of the simplest ways to talk about even and odd numbers with kids is to teach them the concept of “pairs”. If they can match up pairs of objects, then they can learn to recognize which groups contain even and odd amounts.
