Flannelboard Friday: Mouse Shapes by Ellen Stoll Walsh

I made this flannelboard for Mouse Shapes by Ellen Stoll Walsh in Microsoft Publisher with the shapes you can draw. I printed them on card stock, cut them out, laminated them and then put magnets on the back. I have used it in my toddler storytime for shapes and my family early literacy storytime for letter knowledge. In toddler storytime, I needed to copy enough of the pieces to hand out to each child (15 - 20 pieces). The toddlers put the pieces on the board when we come to that part in the story. In my family early literacy storytime, I used the pieces as I was telling the story to put on the flannelboard. Here is the pdf.

  4. Thank you, so much Sarah! This was just what I wanted for my storytime this week :) Do have a printed copy of the words as you're telling the story?

    1. I read the book aloud while the kids bring the shapes to the board or while I put the shapes on the flannel board. Our library has a copy of the big book, so it goes really well together. Good luck!

  5. I have been working with my students on describing what things look like by color, shape and size. This has been perfect for our 'shape' week during distance learning for students working during Speech Therapy sessions.
