Note Cards or Die Cuts
Kindergarten teachers often acquire themed note cards and die cuts to match the various holidays and seasons.

Here are some great ideas and tips on how to utilize them in your classroom.

Write numbers, tally marks, dice, or dominos on each note card or die cut. Hand one to each student as they come into the classroom for the day.

Write letters, CVC words, word families, etc. on each card. Your little learners can add them to the pocket chart or sort according to the skill you choose.
These Teacher Tip For Note Cards are perfect for whole group, small group, partner, or individual practice activities. Being creative with this often overabundance of note cards or die cuts is a great way to add a festive theme to meaningful practice activities.
