Crazy for Camping!

We just bundled a group of camping-themed activities just in time for Memorial Day and summer!   Crazy for Camping is a bundle of six different activities which targets the following skills:

Object Descriptions: Camping Supplies!
Students play a game describing supplies used for camping.  Descriptions target what an object looks like, what it is made of, what it is used for, and what parts it has.

Auditory Memory: Pack Your Bag! 
Students “pack” a camping bag by listening carefully to verbally stated objects and putting matching picture icons “in” the bag.  

Word Order: S’more Sentence Combos!
Students use s’more ingredients to organize words in sentences. 

Sequencing: Building A Campfire! 
Students are presented with five steps of a sequence that are printed on a log.  Students build a campfire by putting the logs on top of each other in sequential order.  

Inferencing: Whose Footprint?
Students are presented with 10 different animal footprint cards and make a smart guess about which animal they belong to.  Then they are given a series of three clues to further inference which forest animal the tracks belong to.  

Main Idea/Details, Summarize, and Vocabulary: Let’s Go Camping!
Students practice vocabulary using the “I have…who has…”vocabulary game prior to reading two informative texts.  A graphic organizer is included for students to identify the main idea, details, and write a brief summary about each text.



All activities are aligned to the Common Core.  Check it out and let us know what you think!
