Just created – “My Color Books!”
I got the idea of creating color books from Bubs’ Kindergarten class. He enjoyed reading them so much that I decided to create my own and add them to the end of the 4 Year Curriculum.
There are nine color books along with one blank book to create your own. Each book contains a title, a place for the child to declare authorship (write their name), four sentences and pictures to match, and the words “The End.” All of the sentences follow the “A/An/The ______ is _______.” The pictures guide the child in reading the book. The books are created so that you can print them front and back and have six total pages per book.
- Have the child cut apart the pages (if not printed front and back, glue the pages onto construction paper to create a book.)
- Color the title page the corresponding color
- Have the child write their name on the 3rd page (blank line)
- Color each picture the corresponding color
- Staple the book
- Help the child understand that each set of letters is a word
- Read the book. It won’t take long until the child can read it himself/herself.
These books have been added to the 4 Year Curriculum from weeks 25 to the end. The books are also available under the new heading – Free Printables – under the “Extra Ideas” section.
Thankyou so much for these! Just what my 4 year old needs as she loves colouring, cutting, gluing AND is now wanting to read like a 'big school' kid.
These are great! Think they will work good for the Moppet lessons. Thanks for sharing.
