Printable Student Welcome Postcards for Preschool & Kindergarten
I am sure that I am not the only teacher that has started getting ready to go back to school already. I don’t think I ever stopped getting things ready bit by bit all summer, but now I’m in full swing! There are a few just days left before my big kids go back to school and just a couple of weeks until my preschool
Sunshine Alphabet Practice Letter Match Clip Cards
Sunshine! I’m so ready for warmer weather to get here. The whole time I was working on this set of sunshine themed set of alphabet letter matching clip cards, the lyrics to “Mr. Golden Sun” were running through my head. Preschoolers can welcome the arrival of spring while practicing matching upper case letters and letter recognition with our Sunshine Alphabet Practice Letter Matching Clip Cards.
Snow Day Count & Clip Cards
We don’t see snow where we live, but it’s the time of the year when lots of other colder places are seeing snow! When I was little, playing in the snow was so fun. We lived on a hill that was perfect for sledding across our yard – just like the cute sledding friends on our free printable Snow Day Count & Clip Cards! Preschoolers

Corn on the farm! Whether you’re walking through a maze at the pumpkin patch, decorating with cornstalks, or painting with it, corn is everywhere at this time of the year!

Alphabet Letter Stones
Creating easy to use materials for my classroom is so fun! I have used my summer break to stock up on fun printables (the smiley shapes are my favorite!), simple busy bags or independent table centers, and super fun manipulatives (homemade and from the dollar store!). One of coolest things I made for my preschoolers are these Alphabet Letter Stones! Aren’t they beautiful? They were
Preschool Trace & Count Number Cards {free printable!}
Teach preschoolers all about numbers and build their confidence too! Learning to count, mastering 1:1 correspondence (counting one number for each object), and number recognition doesn’t always come easily to young learners. Using activities to build confidence can set preschoolers up for success instead of frustration. In my own classroom, we have used our watermelon counting cards and our butterfly count and clip cards while teaching

Building words and practicing letter sounds is so fun with our Popcorn Word Game! Older preschoolers and kindergarteners can use their letter sound skills to spell short vowel CVC {consonant-vowel-consonant} words.

Printable busy bags {or learning centers in the classroom} are a great way
