Kindergarten Morning Bins | Tubs | Centers Set 1

You guys. I am listening to your advice to make my centers easier to prep for your kiddos. My new Kindergarten Morning Bins sets will contain straight cutting lines. Mostly. There may be a few activities that require detailed cutting, but I will keep them to an absolute minimum. Also they are non-seasonal, so you will be able to use them any time of the year, no matter where you hail from.

Here’s a look at the activities included in the Kindergarten Morning Bins Set 1.

Pre-Writing Cards

Materials needed: erasable markers, chenille sticks, playdough, small manipulatives

Children will trace along the pre-writing lines. Alternatively, they will use the manipulatives supplied to create the lines.
