At School Concept Book - Ideas for Use


  • HOW TO USE CONCEPT BOOKS

  • Great as a first week back to school activity.

    As a class - or in small groups - visit all the different areas of your school. Take the Around the School Words(coming this weekend) with you and label each area as you visit.

    When you arrive at each area - discuss with the children all the things they can see, what happens there etc.

    Come back to the classroom and review and list (or use another copy of the 'Around the School' words) the places the children visited around the school .

    Copy the concept book onto A3 and make up a class big book with each area having 1 or more pages.

    Children then illustrate a page each - this then goes into the class big book sharing area....

  • Also ideal to make up this book after playing the circle game ..... First child starts by saying 'At school we visited the library....' - Next child says 'At school we visited the library and the tuckshop.... keep taking turns around the circle...

  • Great for use with School Activities Words and Around the School Words.

  • I saw an interesting post on Pinterest the other day, showing a plastic, sandwich size, zip-lock bag that had had a piece of duct tape run along the base. The duct tape provided reinforcing that allowed holes to be punched through the bag for storage in a binder. I imagine you could run the tape down the side of larger zip-lock bags for a similar effect. This may not solve all your storage issues, but if there\'s just a few small games to go with a unit that\'s otherwise stored in a binder, it might help!

  • I was just thinking the other day that I needed some matching cards for numbers over 100 then today I came across the new parts of speech posters and thought I\'d check out the \"What\'s New\" section and there I found exactly what I had been wanting. Thank you so much for your wonderful resources. This is the first place I check when looking for resources and I\'ve been able to build a great collection since moving to the lower school grades last year. Thanks again!
