Shoe tying Pete the Cat rocking in my school shoes craft
By Patricia
Shoe tying Pete the Cat Rocking in My School Shoes Craft
Unleash creativity and motor skills with this engaging, multi-faceted craft activity inspired by Pete the Cat Rocking in My School Shoes!
This hands-on activity is designed to teach students how to lace and tie knots, focusing on the essential life skill of tying shoes. The lesson begins with a simple knot-tying practice on a fun template, allowing students to grasp the basics of knot formation. Once comfortable, students will progress to a shoe-lacing activity, where they can apply their new skills to lacing and tying shoes.
Creative Sewing Activity: After enjoying the beloved story, students can make Pete's shoes come to life by sewing yarn to create laces on their very own shoe templates. This hands-on project is perfect for developing fine motor skills while allowing students to engage with the story in a tactile way.
Colorful Collage Option: For those who prefer a different creative approach, students can color their shoe template and then add vibrant paper strips as laces. This option encourages artistic expression while letting students experiment with different textures and materials.
Early Finishers Activity: Keep early finishers entertained and engaged with a relaxing coloring sheet of Pete's shoes, giving them the freedom to explore different colors and patterns.
This Pete the Cat Rocking in My School Shoes craft is perfect for classrooms looking to combine storytelling with creative expression

Phonics for Kindergarten and First Grade
By Science and STEAM Team
This phonics book was made with kindergarteners and first graders in mind.
The sounds included are short vowel (cvc), long vowel (cvc silent e), common blends, and digraphs.
Use this journal as you teach different sounds.
After instructing the students have them use the journal to record words that they find while reading. This is particularly good if you use phonics readers / decodable readers. I partner my students up and have them partner read from the reader and record any words that they find at the end of each
page they are reading. This gets the students reading, saying, and discussing the words together! What better practice than that!

Guided Reading Lesson Plan & Activities for Kindergarten
By Bright Classroom Ideas Marketplace
Guided reading in Kindergarten involves tailored small group reading teaching. It certainly isn't the entire group. The small groups are formed according to the reading abilities of the students. It is very distinct and adaptable. Students are able to enter and exit groups as necessary. Every group utilizes leveled books chosen to cater to their specific requirements.
Developing a guided reading lesson plan may appear overwhelming. Nevertheless, if you divide it into components concentrating on your students’ requirements, the methods you will demonstrate, and the text you will utilize, it becomes significantly easier to handle. Your lesson plans will encompass an objective outlining the strategies you'll teach, vocabulary work, an introduction to the book, the reading of the book, comprehension questions, and activities to follow the reading. If you prefer not to design your own, there are numerous lesson plan templates available for selection.
This comprehensive guided reading ebook includes a complete lesson plan along with activities and recommended answers for your kindergarten students.
