Erasers

Here are my new beach erasers (older pictures and ideas are linked at the bottom)
Starfish or sea stars

seahorses

sharks


crabs

shells

pink narwhals
orange narwhals


hammerhead sharks!!!!








The low down on why to use mini erasers


besides being cute (which they totally are)
they bring new life to any game

Yes you could play the same game over and over, but by 
adding something new to a game, makes it exciting!

You need to work on:
 fine motor skills?  mini erasers fit the bill
patterning skills? mini erasers fit the bill
weighing skills? mini erasers fit the bill
board game? mini erasers fit the bill

Have play dough mats? Use mini erasers instead.

Game pieces? Use mini erasers!
Playing tic tac toe? Use mini erasers!



Here are my favorite paid and FREE resources
I use these two packs in my morning bins.




Here are another blog post with tons of ideas.

Here is one post that talks about mini eraser storage,
but if you search "mini eraser or eraser" on my blog, you will pull up a ton!

Target Run #3

I found some erasers!!!!!!

In my cart...



                                        I found these jumbo paper clips

                      

I totally bought these due to FOMO!!!
I did get a free file to use them though.
This is a very awesome dry erase board
for my mom who loves stars!

My plan for these:
for the stars I was thinking of laminating and then writing with Sharpies numbers and having the students clip clothespins on to match.

could be tally marks
1:1 correspondance
number word to numeral
numeral to numeral

the alphabet ones
just clipping those clips from Bullseye's Playgroud
(I only saw one set this year, so I grabbed that of course,
plus the ones from last year.)
Pointers
adding these to the writing center

spin markers- well that is just plain fun...
it *might* be really good for fine motor,
but don't tell the kids lol
We are going to search for shapes
going in our science center when we talk about colors.
I have no idea... yet! shhhh don't tell my husband lol
 These are fabric AND magnetic!!!!!! 


Next week I think is all about erasers! 
Stay tuned!!!!!!!

pencils, pizza, and French Fries 
shapes and dinos

rainbows, unicorns, mermaids and narwhals
ice cream and stars
popsicles and space
sports

They are secure :)


A frog puppet? Well if I must!


Food stamps: nutrition/food unit or colors


Stamps: some food, but I think they are for color recognition.



Summer, winter and spring books
I have no idea where fall is or why
I got summer and winter packs

Very nice small aquarium.
Self cleaning.
I wouldn't use it long term, but when the main tank is yucky and 
I don't have time to clean it.


Ocean stamps- they are a nice comfy size, 
perfect for small hands.
Even came with an ink pad
(remember to store your ink pads upside down)


Backyard bugs and a bird lol
