Leaf Look Alikes! Same or Different Leaf Worksheets

August 27, 2020 by Selena Robinson Leave a Comment

Going on a leaf hunt is one of the early childhood activities I love the most.

We always find so many different types of leaves, even in our local neighborhood.

Looking at leaves from different (and sometimes, the same) trees is an excellent opportunity to practice visual discrimination with early learners.

To reinforce this skill, I decided to make a leaf version of our printable visual discrimination lesson – these same or different leaf worksheets!

Apple Count! Apple Number Puzzles

August 21, 2020 by Selena Robinson Leave a Comment

These fun apple counting puzzles are great for helping early learners relate numerals to objects!

Preschoolers absolutely love playing with puzzles.

My four-year-old asks to do a puzzle almost every single day. The same one. Over and over again.

But that’s a good thing!

It means that kids are remembering how the pieces fit together to make a complete picture and solving them more quickly each time.

Since we’ve been working on recognizing one-to-one correspondence and counting individual items, I thought we’d turn that skill into a hands-on activity with these Apple Preschool Counting Puzzles!

Fun Apple Counting to Ten Puzzles for Kids

I was hoping that my little one would like this activity and she loved it!

Read on to see how to share this hands-on counting lesson with your students!

Also – if you’re looking to build an apple unit for preschoolers, don’t miss our other apple fun, including our Apple Matching Worksheets and our Apple Coffee Filter Craft!

These printable apple counting puzzles are perfect for early math lessons! Use them at fall math centers or for an interactive apple lesson for little ones!

Apple Preschool Counting Puzzles

To use these apple preschool counting puzzles, you’ll need the following supplies: (This post contains affiliate links. For details, see our Disclosure Policy.)

  • Printer (with ink)
  • Printer paper
  • Laminator (helpful for keeping the puzzle pieces intact for use later)
  • Scissors
  • Astrobright paper (optional)
Apple Number Puzzles

These apple counting puzzles include numbers and individual dots from 1 to 10.

Once you laminate them and cut them out, you should have ten “dot” halves and ten numeral halves.

Apple Preschool Counting Puzzles

By the way, if you’re short on color ink, a black and white line art version is included.

That way, you can let the kids color in the puzzles themselves.

Or, if you’re like me, you can use colorful AstroBright paper instead!

Printable Apple Counting Puzzles for Kids

The tricky thing about these puzzles is that they all fit together.

So the challenge for kids is to make sure that they’re matching halves based on corresponding the numerals to the number of dots on the halves.

Apple Counting Puzzles for Kids

With our little one, we focused on identifying the numeral first.

Then we counted the dots on the puzzle halves until we found the one that matches each number.

Apple Counting to Ten Puzzles

When we finished, she asked “Can I do it again, Mama?”

The surefire sign of a successful preschool lesson.

Day and Night! Nocturnal and Diurnal Animals Sorting Activity

July 13, 2020 by Selena Robinson 3 Comments

Teach kids about the animals who are active during the day and those that come out at night with this fun nocturnal and diurnal animals sorting activity!
Nocturnal and Diurnal Animals Sorting Activity - Look! We're Learning!
Use the print or digital version of this nocturnal and diurnal animals sorting activity to teach students about animal sleep habits!

Have you ever seen a possum in real life?

Growing up in the country, I knew that they existed. But it took several years before I actually saw one scurrying away in the early morning hours.

It was like catching sight of Bigfoot.

I knew that there were animals that were awake when I was asleep at night, but to actually see one was memorable.

If you’re teaching students about animal sleep habits, this printable and digital Nocturnal and Diurnal Animals Sorting Activity can help!

Diurnal and Nocturnal Animals Sorting Activity for Early Grades

Most kids love to learn about animals and my students are no exception.

So when we were starting to learn about animal sleeping habits, I wanted to find a way to make a simple, hands-on activity they’d love to do.

Diurnal Animal Sorting Practice

Read on to see how to get your copy of this Nocturnal and Diurnal Animals activity – available as a print or digital resource!

Looking for more science resources for early grades? Take a look at our list of fun Weather STEM Experiments to try with students!

Teach early students how to recognize animals with different sleeping habits with this hands-on diurnal and nocturnal animals sorting activity!

Nocturnal and Diurnal Animals Sorting Activity for Kids

I remember learning about nocturnal animals when I was a kid, but we didn’t talk much about diurnal animals (at least not using the term “diurnal”).

So in case this term is fairly new to you as an educator, “diurnal” simply means that they are active during the day like you and me!

Nocturnal and Diurnal Animals for Early Grades

The printable nocturnal animal sorting activity is super easy to use. You’ll only need the following supplies: (This post contains affiliate links. For details, see our Disclosure Policy.)

  • Printer (with ink)
  • Printer Paper
  • Scissors
  • Laminator (if you want to make a set that lasts)
  • Hook and loop adhesive coins (optional)
Nocturnal Animals Early Elementary Activity

This resource includes picture cards of 16 animals: eight are nocturnal and eight are diurnal – in both English and Spanish.

Some of the animals in the product include:

  • Hawk
  • Gorilla
  • Bee
  • Raccoon
  • Elephant
  • Possum
  • Butterfly
  • Dog
  • And 8 more!
Learning about Nocturnal Animals in Spanish

There are also sorting pages (in both English and Spanish) where students can classify animals according to whether they are diurnal or nocturnal.

The Spanish set includes a pronunciation guide.

How to Teach Early Grades about Nocturnal Animals

A set of unlabeled picture cards is also inside!

Diurnal and Nocturnal Animal Classification

Plus, there’s an answer key included, as well as a full set of instructions.

How to Use the Diurnal and Nocturnal Animals Sorting Activity with Students

When you’re ready to use this resource with your class, here are a few ways you can include it in your lesson plan.

(Look at the included teaching script if you need an idea of how to introduce this topic.)

Teaching Early Students about Nocturnal Animals

You can use this for a one-time learning Nocturnal and Diurnal Animals Sorting activity.

Just skip the laminating and have students cut and paste the animals in the correct column.

Sorting Diurnal and Nocturnal Animals in Spanish

If you have Spanish-speaking students, let them use the animal cards and the sorting sheet with Spanish terms.

This is also great for early Spanish immersion classes.

Classifying Animals by Sleeping Habits

If you have students who are practicing writing, use the unlabeled cards as a labeling activity!

Just laminate the cards and then allow students to write the animal names (in either language) with wet erase markers.

Or have the class help you label the cards by challenging them to spell each animal name out loud with you.

Diurnal and Nocturnal Animals for Early Grades

Use the unlabeled cards as a reference and let students name each animal on their own. They can then use the labeled cards for self-checking.

Diurnal Animals Early Science Center Activity

If you use it at science centers, add hook and loop coin stickers to the back of the cards. Cut each column apart and place them on rings.

Then add coin stickers onto the column squares so students can practice sorting the animals again and again.

Big City Lights! Printable Number Playdough Mats

June 29, 2020 by Selena Robinson Leave a Comment

Growing up in the country, I always wanted to visit a big city. I’d seen them on TV and movies, but I’d never actually been to one.

Until my first trip to New York City.

We visited there as a family when I was six years old and it was everything I’d been hoping to see – and more.

Riding through the city at night made me feel like I was moving through a giant carnival. All of the buildings were lit up and it seemed like the greatest place on Earth.

Of course, in the daylight the city looked much different.

But the memory of those bright lights stayed with me. And that’s where I got the idea for these Big City Lights! Printable Number Playdough Mats.

Fun City Number Playdough Mats for Kids

These are perfect for adding to an early education unit about the big city!

Plus, they make wonderful fine motor strengtheners for little ones who are working on number recognition.

From age 8 until about age 11, I was insane about them. I had a model T-Rex figurine that had a mouth you could actually move.

Then they just cover that number with a math counter and keep going!

You can also use buttons, counting bears, pom-poms, or coins in place of counters.

Students can play the game alone or with a partner. If they’re playing alone, challenge them to see how quickly they can roll and cover all the multiples.
