Many books from the big Publishers come with cut-outs. I
love them. But over the years I have collected quite a few and I will give some
ideas on how to use them further and how to use them with students who are starting
to read and write in English.
The cut-outs can be used as classroom décor. The bulletin
board can be greatly enhanced by them. Walls and windows can´t be missed. And I also make
cut-outs out of old text books. Many teachers have access to cut-outs in the
dollar stores, Target and more. And others have access to Teacher´s Magazines
such as Maestra Jardinera.
The same cut-outs can be turned into puppets.
Children need variety in their learning, they need different
experiences within the same concept, such as with the identification of the school objects. I made these labels that I printed onto colored paper.
Help children make connection between the vocabulary and the
written words. I found these scrabble game tiles that are fun to help children
write the word and then add up the numbers if you want to use this with older
students.
Children need practice to learn to read and write. Reinforce
and repeat !
Classifying
as big or small.
If you have several cut-outs, create puzzles. Use a markers
to draw the lines to cut.
I have seen on Pinterest a crown with a pocket. I made mine
out of fun foam, a glitter one. I managed to place a small pocket to insert a
cutout. As student´s head vary, I thought I place a binder clip and it worked
well.
And to end this blog post I revised my School Flashcards and
added a lot more. There 175 flashcards now.
