Product Description
Make practicing basic skills engaging for students with these winter file folder games and task cards. This basic skills activities pack includes 8 file folder activities and 80 task cards focused on letter matching, number matching, color matching, and basic skills.
They are perfect basic skills activities for preschool, kindergarten, special education, and children with autism, and can be used in centers, stations, or for independent work. Since special education students, in particular, often need to practice these skills throughout the year, switching out the materials seasonally with the same basic skills can be useful to keep students engaged with the materials.
Each of these winter file folder games is designed to assure that students actually practice the targeted skill and cannot guess the answers or memorize color patterns. For instance, all the letters in a file folder are on the same color mug or penguin so that the student doesn’t learn to match the colors instead of the letter.
These winter themed file folder activities feature common items for winter but do not include religious holiday imagery that may be prohibited by some districts.
