5 Bat Lesson Plans

One thing I love about Kindergarten Crate, is they take care of the busy work so you don’t have to. After all, if you are going to spend the money on a monthly subscription box for teachers, you want it to be worth your while. Kindergarten crate is worth the investment! Month after month, their lessons plans are detailed with everything you may need. So much so, you could use these engaging lessons and lesson plans for an evaluation.

Bats in the Library writing and drawing activity
CVC Bats – Roll, build, and write phonemic awareness activity
_at Family Bat Game – roll and read
Adding to 10 – Ways to make 10 using the mini erasers and tens frame worksheets
Bat Craft – Cut and paste the shapes to build a bat. Glue the bat onto the moon (made from coloring the small paper plate with yellow chalk). I suggest using yellow crayons rather than yellow chalk.

Teacher Box for PreK, K, and 1st Grade

A lot of teachers hear “kindergarten crate” and instantly think it’s only for kindergarten. That is false. When you subscribe with the Kindergarten Crate promo code, you can register for PreK, kindergarten, or first grade.
