Letters File Folder Game

 Letters
Inside the folder on the left I wrote the different activities there are for the folder. 
Example: 
  • Match
  • Dino hangman
  • Find the missing letter
  • Spelling






Another printable I thought would be perfect for a file folder game from http://www.makinglearningfun.com.  
Match the pictures to the beginning sound.  
I have a set of alphabet magnets I bring out when this folder is being used for matching uppercase to lowercase letters. 
Dino Hangman is more advanced but great for beginning readers and elementary aged kids during summer break. 
The dinosaur has every letter on him.  There are 2 dino's one with uppercase one with lowercase. 
These are in page protectors so you would play this game with a dry erase marker. 
The child guessing would have the Dino with the letters in front of them.  They would 'x' off a letter after guessing and write the letter on the bottom of the page if correct in the correct space given. 
The person who knows the word would use another sheet provided to create the 'hangman'.  
I tested this game with a couple of kids and they loved it! 
It is great spelling, reading, and problem solving practice! 

This file folder also has handwriting practice (dry erase.)

Another sheet you cannot see in the picture is 'find the missing letter'.  It has the alphabet written down with random letters missing.  You have to identify what letter is missing by writing it in or placing the correct magnet there.

Elephant Faces

Elephant Faces (masks) We used:  Three paper plates Paint or markers Paint brushes Stapler Scissors Yarn First paint the bottom of the paper plate.  While the kids painted I cut the other paper plate in half for the ears. Using the third plate I cut out the textured part of the plate to make the trunks.   Paint (or color) the rest of the pieces.  Staple them together to make an elephant. Cut out small holes for eyes and small holes behind the ears to attach the yarn. Now that the lesson is over I have the masks hanging in the playroom.  They make a neat decoration. 

Painting With Squirt Guns

We did this as a Fathers Day project, but it fits in outside play perfectly.   I liked this for Fathers because it was an interactive activity for the kids to do with Jerry to celebrate him and the time they enjoy spending with him. I filled 1 gun with yellow paint and 2 guns with black paint.  The squirt guns we used were from the dollar store and had a decently big hole to pour the paint into.  Some squirt guns have itty bitty holes that make squirting paint into the gun very difficult. Taped off the canvas...and made the kids pose Then the guns were handed to the kids and dad.  Instructions were to shoot the canvas not each other. Very simple. Start squirting!   The squirting went on and on.  I refilled the guns a couple times so the activity could continue.     Jerry also took time with each Dragon to squirt with them.  With a Star Wars theme we were looking at having black as the primary color and yellow as the secondar

Mini Story Boards

Mini Story Boards We used:  Foam Cookie sheets Magnets Paper I found the cookie sheets at the dollar store and loved the idea of the kids telling their own stories using movable magnets.   I cut out flowers with the foam (you can cut out any design and use construction paper instead of foam) and little people then stuck a magnet to the back.  I cut out bugs and stuck magnets to the back of those too.    Then I drew little scenes that would inspire a story and put them on the cookie sheet.  One demonstration and their imaginations took off on their own :)
