What students will practice

What is The Gingerbread Man Matching Cards and Board?
⌄
Three pages: a matching board with six pictures from the story (gingerbread man, old woman, old man, oven, fox and baking tray), six picture cards to cut out, and a word board where children place each picture on its word.
Can I use The Gingerbread Man Matching Cards and Board at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for Preschool to Kindergarten holiday activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How many Preschool to Kindergarten Christmas resources are there?
⌄
68 printable resources, all free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are Christmas resources for?
⌄
These are written for Preschool to Kindergarten students, roughly ages 4-6. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these Christmas resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Preschool to Kindergarten classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
