Freebie Friday!

When teaching my kinders to write lowercase letters I teach them Tall, Fall, and Small. Tall like a giraffe, because the neck reaches the top line (or the tree top). Fall like a cat, because the tail falls below the line. Small like a mouse, because the mouse fits under the middle line. I created this page to for the kids to practice which letters are tall, fall, or small. They cut out the letter and glue it in the correct column. Hope you like it.



I have not gotten real fancy with my stuff yet, so all my clip art is from Microsoft, but today I am thankful for that because I know a lot of you are having to change your freebies and items on your TpT because of TOU changes! Yikes!!!

I know this post has been up a while but I used your idea for tall, small and fall letters with my class last year and found it absolutely brilliant! I'm planning on doing it again soon so just wanted to stop by and endorse this activity for other teachers! We picked letters out of a bag and categorized them into tall, fall and small by sticking them onto the wall under the right heading and fixed letters that had 'fallen off the wall' each day. I used actions that I found online (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Hsy9hwpiAw)to help really reinforce the letter categories.

I'd love if you would check out my blog if you get a chance! Thanks a mil!
