They recognized their name and held up their sheet. I held up post-its with my students’ names on them. When we got together, we read the story ( this version is my favorite, but I’d love to hear which one is yours) and completed this graph. My students tasted this at home and filled out the sheet. Send the sheet and two packets of instant oatmeal home. However, nothing is normal right now, folks. Then at circle time, we’d make the graph together.

In a typical year, I would have read the story, made a few bowls of each flavor, and given my students a small amount of each at free choice, and helped them fill this sheet out. Porridge taste testing is a fun way to incorporate a little “cooking” and explore children’s sense of taste and smell while doing a group graphing activity. Group Activity for Goldilocks and The Three Bears – perfect for zoom. The sign seen in the photo is included in the download.įriday in my class, we are reading Goldilocks and The Three Dinosaurs, and I’ll be putting these out with toy dinosaurs for my students to make dino beds. Pop some Lego on a tray and invite your students to make some beads for Goldilocks and The Three Bears. This is the most straightforward idea, and if you are giving your students individual tray activities, it’s easy to do that with this. It’s one of the best toys for developing fine motor skills, and kids love playing with it. STEM Activity for Goldilocks and The Three Bears Playdough is an essential tool for fine motor development, especially when you add in googly eyes and buttons. You can decorate them with whatever you have on hand. Of course, you can also have brown available. This is a fun way to extend learning at the playdough table. Green and red make brown, but so can green, purple, and orange. Start by making brown playdough by mixing various colors. I got playdough in various colors, google eyes, buttons, playdough rolling pins, cookie cutters, and some items to make fun textured fur. There are so many ways you can do this playdough activity really, it’s about giving your students the materials for them to be creative. Playdough Activity for Goldilocks and The Three Bears I keep free-choice art simple children don’t need tons of craft supplies to get creative. Make items like buttons, googly eyes, and crayons available. Let your students get as creative as possible with a blank bear. I encourage you not to print the bear image out. I’ve included a plain bear printable in the pack for you to use as a stencil. Start by cutting a bear out of a paper bag. Children won’t be stuffing their bear, just making it their own. It’s a simple concept, but Build-A-Bear Workshop will tell you it’s also very engaging. Children will be working on various math skills with this activity subitizing as they recognize the amounts on the die, one-to-one correspondence as they place the markers down to cover the dots, or count each one to get to their next stop. You can do it as a roll and cover game or move your marker ( in our case, a button) along as you roll and count. Not only are they working on the concept of measurement, how many cubes tall is Goldilocks? What about Baby Bear? They are working on counting and fine motor skills too.Īnother math center classic is these simple dice games. Using unifix cubes, they can measure elements of the story.

The first math center activity is one I love doing with my students during free choice.

I wanted to share more Goldilocks and The Three Bears Activities and ideas you can use in your preschool and kindergarten classes.

Did I mention I am teaching in person again?! It is only one day a week, so we still have twice weekly zooms and remote activities, but I am thrilled to be back in the classroom with PreK students! Yesterday over zoom, we read Goldilocks and The Three Bears and did the porridge taste-test featured below. I have incorporated many fractured fairy tales and diverse fairy tales for lessons and in our classroom library for this fairy tale unit. This is the first year in many that I have done fairy tales with my students.
