F is for FALL!!

Letter: F
Book: Fall Leaves Fall

We are going to the pumpkin patch this week so we are only focusing on Fall for one day. We were able to include a lot of fun activities.

Counting Leaves:
Roll the dice and have the students count the dots. Have them pick the corresponding number of leaves and count them as they place them in a pile, bag etc.
Leaves on the first letter of their name. We cut out small leaves (die cut or cricut) and they glued them onto the first letter of their name. I decided to add the rest of their name and put the names on the classroom door.



Leaf Press:
Materials needed:
real leaves in red, orange and yellow
Packing tape
Have the students place the leaves on the sticky side of the packing tape. Place another piece on top and send home to put in the window or use to decorate classroom bulletin boards as borders.
Fingerprint trees: We used colored ink pads and brown crayons to make these beautiful works of art!
