Family Thematic Unit Word Cards - Suggestions for Use


  • Remember the capital rules - Use a capital with these words only when the context is more 'personal' or a particular title like 'Aunty Betsie' but 'her aunty' or 'Mum and Dad said ...' but 'your mum is coming over....'
  • Brainstorm and see if you can come up with more 'family' words.
  • Don't forget you can print these at this size or smaller is you like by adjusting your printer settings.
  • Works in well with My Family Concept Book. Children use the word cards to help 'label' (will need capitals) each immediate and extended family member as they draw.
  • Please share your ideas with other teachers and parents in COMMENTS - below..

    With a year one class we played What's the Time Mr Wolf - but instead of the wolf (myself) calling out 'It's one o'clock!" I used a clock with moveable hands.

  • 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!
