Autumn/Fall Items w/FREEBIE


FREEBIE!!
A great pre-writing worksheet for children to work following a curve and practicing letter formation on the word PUMPKIN.


New File Folder Game just added to TPT!

At it's core, a simple color matching game. For children with more advanced skills, also included is shapes, counting 1-12, shape words, color words, and number words. The shirt manipulatives can be divided in half for additional game play opportunities. For older students, math facts equal to the button quantities can be added.

I purposefully placed similar colors together to work observation skills and logic/reasoning. 

$1.00

Pumpkin Pie Play Dough


Made up a batch of this YUMMMMY smelling play dough this afternoon. Miss H helped determine how much spice was needed for it to smell JUST RIGHT. Her momma had a a good sniff as well. I think this will be a huge hit tomorrow!

My usual recipe, plus some spices and coloring...

MIX DRY
2 1/2 C flour
1/2 C salt
1 t cream of tartar
1 T cinnamon
1 t pumpkin pie spice

MIX WET
2 C boiling water
3 T canola oil
15 drops yellow food coloring
5 drops red food coloring

Combine wet and dry. Kneed a few time to get to elastic consistency. Add flour as needed if too wet. 


They like the smell.


They like the feel.



Even the big kid couldn't keep his hands off of it!
