Kindergarten Life Skills Activities

Cut and stick worksheet in which children can think carefully about what clothes are appropriate for different types of weather.

Why do you need this?

This activity encourages children to consider weather conditions and how they affect clothing choices. By engaging in the task, students develop an understanding of the importance of dressing appropriately for various weather conditions.

Teaching children about weather-appropriate clothing fosters practical life skills and promotes independence. By learning to choose suitable attire for different weather conditions, students develop self-care skills and prepare themselves for daily activities both at school and in their daily lives.

How and when might you use this?

Teachers can integrate the activity book into a weather-themed unit or lesson. Teachers can then provide the Cut and Stick activity for children to apply their understanding by selecting appropriate clothing for each weather type.

The hands-on approach keeps students engaged, and the "I Can" statements help boost student confidence as they complete each task independently.

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!
