Ice Cream Activities! Plus a Sale!

Whew! Another year is in the books.  We celebrated the end of the year with an ice cream theme.  Here is a peek of just a few of our activities.

We made sundaes.  The whipped topping is a mixture of shaving cream and white liquid glue.  Real sprinkles were added.  To make the cherry on top, a small piece of red pipe cleaner was hot glued to a red pompom ball.

They look good enough to almost eat! ;)

We did some color the room and draw the room activities with ice cream cone shapes.  Color the room may be now of my little ones favorite activities.

Another craft we did was to make these soft serve cones.  Students cut out the pieces, then scrunched and glued tissue paper to the ice cream.  It was a great activity to work on some fine motor skills.

We also made ice cream cone names by cutting the pieces, gluing the cone together and then writing each letter in order.

For alphabet work, we matched letter sounds to letters of the alphabet.

 We worked on reviewing colors and reading color sight words.

 We also worked on shapes and shape sight words.

 We counted out scoops and put them on top of the correct cones.  And then, of course, we ended our year with an ice cream party.  It was the perfect way to celebrate all our learning!

  Here's a list of everything included in my newest pack.
