Free Resources for Frog Life Cycle

May 13, 2016 By Thaleia Leave a Comment

I love Spring and Summer time and being able to get out to enjoy nature a little bit more. One thing that I also enjoy is sharing free resources to help families extend their learning. Today is all about the FROG! I have gathered up over 70 free resources to use when learning about the frog life cycle.

Free Resources Frog Life Cycle Unit Study

I start off with free frog life cycle printables, then add activities, then added crafts, book lists, and younger learner activities like busy bags, tot trays, and sensory bins. I hope your family enjoys some of these frog life cycle activities either indoors or out!

Parts of a Flower Free Resources

May 12, 2016 By Thaleia 3 Comments

May’s Kindergarten Blog Hop is here! This month our theme is Flowers. It’s been a crazy couple of weeks at our house so I decided to throw together a post for free resources for parts of the flower. You can use these free resources for any age preschool to older elementary. If your child is flower crazy like mine then you will want to make your own DIY Flower Press!

Parts of a Flower book

I printed off a 3 page worksheet that turns into a book about the parts of a flower for Big Red to color, read, and cut out. I found this free printable book from Worksheet place.

Action Painting Like Jackson Polluck

May 7, 2016 By Thaleia Leave a Comment

I have been meaning to do some action painting like Jackson Polluck for a few years now. I was so excited when Messy Little Monster announced her Exploring Famous Artists series. I jumped at the chance to participate sharing how we created Jackson Polluck paintings.

We watched a couple of videos and read a few books before we created our own works of art.  You can check out one of the books called called Jackson Pollock (Getting to Know the World’s Greatest Artists).

Action Painting Like Jackson Polluck

I went to JoAnn’s and bought a 5 pack of canvases. They were on sale plus I used my 15% teacher discount!  My goal is to have all four children create a piece of art work to hang behind our couch in the living room. The paint that we used was given to us from Home Depot during one of our kid workshop sessions.

Fire Station Tour

May 6, 2016 By Thaleia Leave a Comment

There’s actually a back story that goes along with the reason we went on a Fire Station Tour! I will share very briefly and then describe all the things we learned on our Fire Station Tour. Earlier that morning before 6:30 am lights and sirens came down our street! A two-story house two doors down on our side of the street was on fire. As soon as I heard and saw the fire trucks I got Riley out of bed. Eldest and Princess soon followed.

After the fire was out, the street was clear and we ate lunch we decided to head to the fire station for a tour.
