1-2-3 Come Do Some Kissing Hand Activities With Me

Since all of The Kissing Hand Activities have been such popular downloads, I decided to make a few more activities to review all sorts of Common Core State Standards

The first packet has to do with the alphabet.  I've included large 5x7 upper and lowercase letter cards that you can use as flashcards or for Memory Match or "I Have; Who Has?" games. 

Make an extra set; cut them apart, and use them for an ABC puzzle center.  I've included a tip list of all sorts of other things you can do with the cards, including a "Kaboom" game.  

alphabet games, alphabet activities, alphabet cards, alphabet assessments, number cards, skip counting activities, counting booklet, shape activities, shape games, raccoon craftsThere are also mini cards.  Run them off and have students arrange them in alphabetical order, or don't cut them apart, and make the lowercase worksheet into an "I Spy" game board. Students color their uppercase heart-tiles and cut them apart.

I've also included several assessments, a recording sheet, plus 2 trace and write worksheets

The next packet is all about numbers.  There's a counting booklet for numbers 0-10, with a blank sheet to program with larger numbers.

Students trace the numbers and number words.   If you want to extend the activity, have them practice writing the numbers and words on the back of the pages. 

I've included large and small "lipstick-ers" for your students to cut and glue the appropriate amount to the hands.

One of my favorite clipart designers is Laura Strickand.  I used her alphabet graphics to put together the packet: ABC Stuff.

The easy reader alphabet flipbook incorporates 60 Dolch words!  Students trace the word and lowercase letter, which match the cute uppercase picture.

You can also laminate the pages and use them as pocket cards.

I’ve included an ABC anchor chart as well as 26 traceable flashcards, with a cover, so students can make an Itty Bitty booklet.

Play “I Have; Who Has?” by passing out the cards and asking:  “I have A. Who has B?” ˆ

Sprinkle the cards on the floor and have students sequence them, while singing the ABC song.

For a quick center activity, have students trace the upper and lowercase letters on these bookmarks.  To reinforce vowels, have children trace them in a different color.

Students glue the strips to a piece of construction paper. One side has uppercase letters, the other side lowercase.

Add a bit more pizzazz by punching a cut out or gluing a school photo to the bottom.
