Literacy Picnic

When spring fever hits, I like to bring out some themed centers.  I amp up the fun and keep my students engaged and excited about learning!  Students won’t dare misbehave because they won’t want to miss out on the fun!  Grab a free printable antonym lesson in this post and have yourself a literacy picnic too!

Here’s a peek into my literacy picnic basket!  {Thank you dollar store!} I only spent $8 on a few little props and we feel like we are in the park at Summer time!  You can raid your home cupboard for most of this too.

A Look in the Literacy Picnic Basket

First up we reviewed beginning and ending digraphs. To apply our digraph sounds to reading, we sorted words by beginning and ending CH sounds.

Next on the menu we found fruit salad synonyms!

I may have heard squeals when I introduced this one.  {Okay the squeals were mine}  I love chip clips anyway, but now the kids get to enjoy them too! It’s the simple things in life…

My boys were all over being grill king!

And what picnic is complete without some sentence skewers?

We will also be making sight word sandwiches.  I had this one already, but I had made each sandwich piece with construction paper and hand written the words.  I am thrilled to have given it a make-over!

Build and read!  YUMMY!

No picnic this delicious is without ants.  Thankfully the kids were happy to have them along!

 

We even matched each one up with a cookie!

The kids can’t get enough of this one! That pitcher is always being emptied!

  1. Do you know of anyone or do you create center materials like this that align with CCSS for Kindergarten?
