Opposite Word Printables for Pre-K and Kindergarten

These opposite word printable pages from Itsy Bitsy Fun are so cute. They include really common opposites that are mostly also easy words for little ones who are learning to read.

The printables are coloring pages you can give to the child whole and have them color each piece, or you could cut them up and have them match and then color (or color, cut and match, whichever order you like).

She also suggests using them for a matching or memory game, which would also be fun, especially if you laminate them after they are colored.

Do you have fun ways to teach kids about opposites? I’d love to hear about them! Check out these Opposite Words Flash cards.

Celebrating Coloring Book Day with Printable Coloring Pages

I’m in deep denial about the fact that new year is almost upon us again! It’s been the fastest and the longest year at the same time, and I can look back and see some good things as well as some things I wish had gone differently.

Doing a year in review with your kids — whether in the classroom or at home — is a good way to capture some of their memories and the things they really liked about the year gone by.

There are a lot of different printable year in review worksheets you can use if you want to make this super easy. Here are links to a few (often part of larger posts about NYE celebrations with kids that are worth a read, too):

Teach Beside Me has lots of fun printables fro the end of the year, including a year in review that covers favorite memory, funniest memory and the best book they read, among other topics.
NurtureStore‘s version has space for a self-portrait and prompts like favorite toy, best day out this year and future dream job.
Remember favorites, their “best idea” of the year and have room for setting goals for next year with this one from The Keele Deal.
The year in review from Yes We Made This has room for drawing or writing and includes things like something they learned, a memory they made and a place they visited.

Of course you could pretty easily make your own year in review for the whole family to do that asks questions based on what you most want to remember. (Favorite video game? Best friend? Favorite family memory?)

And if after the year in review you’re ready to look ahead a bit, Mrs. Merry has new year’s resolution printables to inspired kids to look ahead and set goals for things they want to try. You can totally fill this one out as a grownup, too.
