This craft is great to help students work on fine motor skills while placing the pom-poms on the Owl Craft. But guess what, it doesn't require ANY glue. There are no messes included in this craft which is a huge win! Add this craft to your favorite read aloud or have students research all about owls and write facts about this amazing creature.
By the time fall rolls around, I always find it is time to review classroom expectations, especially on how to show kindness to peers. The Be Kind Sunflower Craft Kit allows students to review this much-needed social emotional skill. Using a Sharpie, students can add their ideas to the Sunflower Craft. This is a great craft to keep up all through fall as a reminder when needed.
The writing possibilities are endless with this hidden Fall Leafy Hedgehog Magnet Craft! Students can share why the Hedgehog is hiding and what they think happened to him. Or add in opinion writing by asking students to share if they would prefer a hedgehog or a squirrel for a pet and why.
Weaving is a fun activity that helps develop a student's fine motor skills while also working on eye-hand coordination, concentration and problem solving skills. It is also a great way to incorporate prepositions into your classroom, which many students struggle with. After creating the Fall Colors Weaving Placement Craft, add in a math skill by having students use a Sharpie to skip count by 2's.
