Lesson Planning with Me

Hello! I teach an integrated preschool classroom, which means I am responsible for students ages three to five with special needs of all types as well as typical developing students. My students range in ability from a toddler to a typical kindergartener. Therefore, my activities must be able to reach a wide range and be easily adjusted for multiple ability levels.

I created this blog as a way to keep track of the fantastic ideas I have gathered over the years. Because I just randomly add activities to the blog, use the search, standard list, or theme list on the left side to find the activities you are after!

I also create and sell resources that can be found at TeachersPayTeachers and Teacher's Notebook.

Button Ideas

From Child Care Land:

Popcorn and Buttons:
   Fill a tub with popcorn seeds and add buttons.  Using fingers or tweezers, students pick the buttons
   out and sort them into cups.






Button Counting:
   Using a picture of a snowman found here, students count out the appropriate number of buttons.


Buttoning Practice:
    Make these cute little squares with a button sewn in the middle.  Student buttons on or unbuttons
    off the circle.


Button Play Dough:
   Make play dough.  Fold buttons in.  Students take out as many as they can.

Button Snake

From: Cost Cutting Creations

#12 - Button Snake

All you need to make this project is a button, ribbon, felt, thread/needle and scissors! The idea is to have your kiddos thread the felt pieces on and off the button snake for hours of entertainment!

This Mommy got the idea from  here ... click and enjoy!



Each felt square has a slit the size of the button.


It takes a little sewing skills to attach the button and last felt piece.
