Building with cereal boxes and snack cups are one of our favorites! So much environmental print and so much engineering and physics happening here. The boxes are not as easy to build with as blocks to lots of testing, balancing, and examining as they build. Are you wondering how I get all these cereal boxes so quick? I ask families to bring some in each year then I save them after we are done with them. I simply break down each box so they stack flat and put them in my building tub for us to use next time. . . . . . . . #Teachersofinstagram #teacherspayteachers #iteachprek #iteachpreschool #learningthroughplay #playmatters #iteachtoo #pocketofpreschool #preschoolteacher #preschoollife #prekteacher #prekinder #teachersfollowteachers #stemdrawers #stem #blockscenter

In our sensory bin for our Food and Nutrition theme is beans! Plus tings, various size cans, veggie counters, and measuring spoons. Let the scooping, sorting, pinching, comparing, measuring, counting, observing, and problem solving begin! . . . . . . . . . #Teachersofinstagram #foodtheme #teacherspayteachers #iteachprek #iteachpreschool #learningthroughplay #playmatters #iteachtoo #pocketofpreschool #preschoolteacher #preschoollife #prekteacher #prekinder #homeschool #homeschooling #inviatationtoplay #finemotorskills #mathcenters #sensoryplay #sensorybin

I was putting all the things away from October and just had to share this with you! We did Read Build Write Mats for our Nocturnal Animals theme with letters and our names. These mats were a hit with my kiddos and they had the best conversations about letters too. One thing about October is that they have all the routines down and have already grown so much! They engage in conservations about letters (or whatever the objective is for the activity) with just a bit of modeling and sometimes even without❤️ . . . . . #Teachersofinstagram #writingletters #nameactivities #teacherspayteachers #iteachprek #iteachpreschool #learningthroughplay #playmatters #iteachtoo #pocketofpreschool #preschoolteacher #preschoollife #prekteacher #finemotorskills #literacycenters #teachersfollowteachers

Every year my kiddos make Halloween cards or posters for their families. It’s super simple and they absolutely love giving them to their families at the end of the Halloween party. Those proud little faces make my heart melt.❤️ Card making is a great way to get reluctant writers to write and love writing. Making writing meaningful and purposeful shows students why writing is important! Plus it gets them excited about writing. By the way, the Frankenstein this little guy drew is the cutest and has so much detail! The Happy Halloween word card is a freebie when you sign up for my newsletter (link in my bio). It also comes in lowercase too. . . . . ##teachersofinstagram #teacherspayteachers #iteachprek #iteachpreschool #iteachtoo #pocketofpreschool #preschoolteacher #preschoollife #prekteacher #prekinder #lifeofateacher #homeschool #homeschooling #inviatationtoplay #finemotorskills #literacycenters #teachersfollowteachers

This teacher is tired from all the Halloween gaging but I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Holidays brings families into our classroom and the joy I see on my kiddos faces makes all the craziness worth it. I was a blue crayon and it was my favorite teacher costume I’ve done to date. It was easy, comfy, and cool. The shirt is from Jane.com and I saved a swipe up link on my Party IG story highlight. . . . . . . #Teachersofinstagram #teacherspayteachers #iteachprek #iteachpreschool #teachersfollowteachers #learningthroughplay #playmatters #iteachtoo #pocketofpreschool #preschoolteacher #preschoollife #prekteacher #prekinder #lifeofateacher

Fine motor mummy craft is perfect for a party. We did some at our party today and I have done them at my sons school parties too. I tear white paper towels into strips then the students tear the into smaller icees and glue them on their mummy. Super cute and great for strengthening those little fingers! Grab it on my blog www.pocketofpreschool.com and search Halloween! . . . . . . . #Teachersofinstagram #iteachpreschool #teacherspayteachers #iteachprek #iteachtoo #pocketofpreschool #preschoolteacher #preschoollife #prekteacher #prekinder #lifeofateacher #homeschool #homeschooling #inviatationtoplay #finemotorskills #halloweencrafts
