NOAH'S ARK ACTIVITIES

Image
Credit goes to  Jewish Montessori Activities  for the template for this fabulous game. Check out her fantastic website jewishhomeschool.blogspot.com . Perfect for getting those little fingers coordinated. The kids had to clip on the numbered clothespin to the correct section of animals. Noah's Ark out of Lego!!! Sink or Float? The kids chose different objects from around the classroom and guessed whether it would sink or float. Then we tested it and graphed the results. The boys made this Teiva - Ark. After they were done, I showed them an image of a rainbow, and they drew their own on top of the Ark. Click here  to download the free Teiva template. I've used this plush Ark and animals for years. My kids love it. (Amazon affiliate link)
