Grade 3, Grade 4

Bean Bag Meaning

Have a student toss a bean bag onto the mat. Be sure that the bean bag lands on a space on the mat. Hop to the bean bag, and pick it up. Say the word and the meaning of the word.

Grade 3, Grade 4

Hop and Say

Have students hop from one word to the other saying each of the words out loud. As students say the word, have them also say the meaning, or use the word in a sentence.

Grade 3, Grade 4

Word Clapper

Follow instructions for the Mad Word Hatter activity. Instead of shouting the word, the student hops on the word three times, saying the word and clapping simultaneously.

PreK, Kindergarten

Mad Word Hatter

Create word cards that match color words on the mat. Place cards in a large hat or a box. The student draws a word and then hops on the mat to the word. When the student finds the word, they will shout the word (if the learning environment permits loud noises). The student places the word card on the corresponding word and goes to the hat to select another word.

PreK, Kindergarten

Clipboard Word Fun

Clip a worksheet that helps students learn the color words. Have the student hop on the mat to solve the worksheet.

PreK, Kindergarten

I Spy

Have a student toss a bean bag onto the mat. The student will jump to the space on the mat with the beanbag. Then, the student will ‘spy’ something in the room that is that color. The other students will take turns guessing what that object is.

PreK, Kindergarten

Bean Bag Decides

Have a student toss a bean bag onto the mat. Be sure the bean bag lands on one word. Hop to the bean bag alternating between one-footed and two-footed hops. Pick up the bean bag and say the word underneath the bean bag.

PreK, Kindergarten

Word Match

Create word cards that match the color words on the Color Word Hop Floor Mat. Put words in a pile and mix up the pile. Have students match the word cards with the words on the Color Word Hop Floor Mat by placing the word card on or beside the word on the floor mat.

PreK, Kindergarten

The Color Word Hop

Have the student begin on START HERE. Have the student read the first word. Have them hop on the word while simultaneously saying the word. Be sure that your student says the words correctly. Tell your student a word if your student doesn’t know the word. Continue hopping and reading words until the end of the mat. Repeat the activity until the student is comfortable with reading words.
