April Pick 3!

Alright people today I'm switching it up and instead of my usual Five for Friday post I'm linking up  with PAWSitively Teaching and Inspired Owl's Corner for my FAVORITE monthly linky PICK 3!



Here are my top 3 pinterest picks for April.  Be sure to let me know what ya think and then why not join the linky and post your favorites too?

My Earth Day lesson plans always include some type of Earth Day writing so when I stumbled across this number I feel in LOVE!  I really like the mosaic Earth craft and the writing sheet is perfect for little learners.  Turns out this pin is from Mrs.Jone's Kindergarten!  Be sure to check out her blog post which includes this activity HERE.

How adorable is this!  Jack and the BeanStalk is the perfect fairytale to read when you are teaching your class about plants/seeds, so why not take the fairytale fun further and add this little detail to your  growing seed cups?  Love it!  Plus by doing this you cold easily incorporate math activities as your kiddos seeds grow.  Think charting height, estimation of when their plant will reach the "castle" etc.

I pinned this photo straight away!  It would make a perfect art center activity and would be fun addition to a plant and vegetable unit.  If you like this activity I highly suggest reading the book Tops and Bottoms by Janet Stevens.

I hope you enjoyed looking at a few of my favorite April pins.  If you'd like to see more pins I love, check out my boards and follow along HERE.
