What Belongs? Sampler Freebie - Cut, Sort, and Paste Activities

By Three Little Homeschoolers

This is a free sampler of my What Belongs? Series and includes pages from each of the four What Belongs? resources: Holidays, Places and Habitats, Rooms of the House, and Seasons. This is a great way to try out these cut, sort, and paste worksheets to see if they're a good fit for your classroom or homeschool!

Included with this sampler are several of the Thanksgiving, Forest, Laundry Room, and Summer worksheets. I've included examples of all three types of worksheets that come in the full versions. On "What belongs in..." worksheets, students cut out the pictures and glue the ones that fit the theme in the box. On "What is missing in..." worksheets, students cut out and glue the missing pieces on the picture to create a scene that matches the theme. And on the comparison worksheets, students have to decide which theme the pictures match and glue them in the correct box.

*Please note: I've included black and white versions of the comparison and "What belongs in..." worksheets in the freebie, but both color and black and white are included in the full versions.*

The full versions of the What Belongs? units include fall, winter, spring, and summer, year long holidays like Halloween, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Ramadan, Easter, and more, plus habitats/places such as the Arctic, the ocean, the farm, and the rooms of the house such as the bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, and more.

These are great for preschool or kindergarten, in special education classrooms, and in homeschools teaching various ages! I have even used the comparison worksheets for my middle elementary aged child in our homeschool as a fun holiday reprieve from his regular work!

Secret Mission Behavior Management Activity to encourage positivity

By Until the Pieces Fit

Are you looking for an easy way to improve student behaviors? This is a fun, easy, print and go activity.

I use the secret missions with my students. Simply print the packet, cut out, and post the missions in your room (be sure to cover each mission with a "secret mission" card".

Then the magic begins. Each morning during your morning meeting time chose a kiddo to uncover a mission. Discuss the mission, the importance of it, what it looks like. I generally have a secret task force who also watches for the behaviors. Then when your children are "caught" they earn a party point/tally/ball (whatever reinforcer you use) for your class. Currently my kids are working to earn hot chocolate with toppings.

I hope this is something fun for you and your kiddos. Please be sure to follow me for additional resources and updates!

File Folder Board Games Practice Turn taking, Rules, Politeness (Special Ed)

By Until the Pieces Fit

6 File Folder Games

File folder games allow students opportunities to learn to through play. Communication and appropriate interactions are important skills they will need throughout life.

This set provides 6 different activities, however they each follow the same general rules, expectations, and idea. I use this with my kiddos that need practice turn taking, losing (students may lose a desired game piece), cooperation, following directions, matching and so much more. The games are easy in nature, however highly addictive for the competitive kids. This allows for opportunities with students in differing abilities.

The themes for the games are:

Fill the Wagon

Make a cake

Buggy Day

Laundry

Moon Walk

Ice Cream

Rules (some differences in games - this example is the Fill the wagon rules).

Contents & Prep:

  • Print/Laminate 1 mat per person, use a expo marker to personalize wagons.  Each player will collect their items in their wagon.
  • Print and laminate 4 dogs, 4 flowers, 4 ice cream, 4 bubbles, 1 book, 1 leaf pile - place them in the middle of the game board. 
  • Print the game board and glue/laminate to a file folder
  • Print and prepare dice (or use your own dice)

*For easy storage of game pieces attach an envelope to the back of the file folder prior to lamination.  Make a small slice in the lamination to release the top of the envelope.  Attach velcro to close.  

Object:  Be the first to collect all the items except the leaf pile in your wagon.   If you have the books or the leaf pile and someone else lands on it you have to give it to the other player.  

Choose your player:  Once you have chosen your player, place them on the board any spot will do!

Directions:  

  1. Roll the dice and move your player.
  2. Collect the pieces as you go and place them in your wagon.   You may only get one of each item!  
  3. The first person to collect 1 dog, 1 flower, 1 ice cream, 1 bubble and the books wins!

For 2-4 players
