As kids are young {preschool age}, we know that hands-on activities work the best. But as kids age and get into school, worksheets can begin to replace those hands-on activities. Here are a few ideas, shared at the After School Link Up, that will inspire all of us to keep the hands-on approach alive!
The Measured Mom shares a great word study lesson plan with hands-on activities throughout the week. Check it out!
There’s Just One Mommy shares some fun sight word practice ideas, including sight words in sand.
I love this sight word pop from Mamas Like Me. The next time we have a package with these inside, I’m saving them up!
Every kid would love this Sight Word Snowball Toss shared by Growing Book by Book!
This game by Relentlessly Fun, Deceptively Educational is amazing. (Really, any of her activities are!)
Now it’s your turn! We would love to have you link up your School-Age Post (Ages 5 and up) about your learning week after school time including Crafts, Activities, Playtime and Adventures that you are doing to enrich your children’s lives after their day at school, homeschool or on the weekend!
Link up your After School Activities, Crafts and Adventures for ELEMENTARY-AGED CHILDREN ONLY please! We’d love to see them!
Thank you for sharing our Sight Word Snowball Toss! Always so many great ideas come from this linky!
Thanks so much for featuring our sight words in the sand! I could kick myself — we just had a big box of those plastic bubbles that i let the kids pop — that sight word idea would be fun to try, too!
