Go Fishing!
Use magnetic fishing poles for learning new concepts or reviewing old ones. Cut fish out of paper, program with information and attach a paper clip to its mouth. I have used this to sort by size (small, medium, and large fish), do math problems (problem on one side, answer on the other) and to review sight words. If the child gets the answer wrong, I threw that fish back in so we can have another try at it later!
Shark Attack!
Melon Fish
Cut a shark face, complete with teeth out of a watermelon. With the remaining watermelon and other melons, cut out fish forms to put in the shark. You can either use a fish cookie cutter or a knife and do it freehand.
