More hands on early finisher activities. But, I want these hands on activities to be self checking and/or totally independent. So, one option I found are these small puzzles from Amazon.</p><p>These puzzles are around a 6 inch square. I LOVE this size because they fit perfect at their seats and they have plenty of room to complete the puzzle in a small space. We use a lot of floor puzzles but they take up a lot of floor space AND you have step over groups of kiddos. My room is super small.. I have to utilize my space wisely!</p><p><a href="http://amzn.to/2xpWuZw"><img width="644" height="484" title="IMG_3621" style="display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_3621" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-eklCLj8E4TA/Wdo_mvzDsOI/AAAAAAAAjEw/WtktwP9C6dUG4XBUSfVeKrZg4PkMg88agCHMYCw/IMG_3621%255B4%255D?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>These are good quality – thin wood and they have held up beautifully the first 9 weeks of this school year. They have 16 pieces each which means most of my students can put them together in a few minutes and don’t get stuck and need help completing them.</p><p>I do need to mention the pieces are a little hard to get out. They do get easier with use. But, you pretty much have to pull the pieces out. But, on the positive side- if the puzzles get turned over the pieces don’t fall out!

Time is flying by! We start week 3 tomorrow. And, I seriously believe this has been the easiest back to school ever! That doesn’t mean I have a perfect class.. BUT, my new little school babies have transitioned so well and have just picked up on our class procedures like champs! </p><p>I do wish I would remember to pick up my phone more and take pictures. But, here are a few things we did this past week.</p><p><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-t7ms27jt-QM/WZnsgpQWv3I/AAAAAAAAjAU/uLV1yDdvWY0vnr3IRcY4xAU2ZO8L_KR3QCHMYCw/s1600-h/IMG_3374%255B3%255D"><img width="465" height="484" title="IMG_3374" style="display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_3374" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-u87FByPpQZI/WZnsi3uSN5I/AAAAAAAAjAY/S2ELT1Vx2DoLuqOrNMwwo3asIXnRH7OPgCHMYCw/IMG_3374_thumb?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>These missing letter cards were a huge hit. With me and my students. They liked them BUT I loved them! They were so easy to just pass out and put to use. We did some as practice during our whole group mat time. Then, through out the week when I needed an early finisher activity I had them ready to go. I split them into 5 baskets so I could jut hand over a basket when I needed it.</p><p><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-MwueXenvUt0/WZnskFAoNnI/AAAAAAAAjAc/CAiCTEZ-Mr00WsNAvL3YyMBS0f7Cr4kbACHMYCw/s1600-h/IMG_3390%255B7%255D"><img width="364" height="484" title="IMG_3390" style="display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_3390" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-zhIaxi5fbgA/WZnslx7RThI/AAAAAAAAjAg/AdxGMfzVWjEt9sEZqTr0imYhyxVPD3QEwCHMYCw/IMG_3390_thumb%255B1%255D?imgmax=800" border="0"></a> <a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ttR4xW7f-Tg/WZnsm7iqRcI/AAAAAAAAjAk/cxpd8XJ52u8ptqsiAH06N5bc65sqKb-wACHMYCw/s1600-h/IMG_3392%255B8%255D"><img width="235" height="484" title="IMG_3392" style="display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_3392" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Aa3gxIrofYo/WZnsoGSqJuI/AAAAAAAAjAo/uJ5OJGF3ukwMzCxkriWrg_NyrVBNP2LdACHMYCw/IMG_3392_thumb%255B5%255D?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>They were perfect hands on alphabet ordering practice.
