Hi and thanks for
stopping by!
Today I will share
some ideas I came up with for using blocks as a learning tool. I was at a Target store and I came across these chalkboard blocks.
Activities:
You can do variation by having children build towers counting by
two’s, by five’s or by ten’s depending on your child’s level or grade.
2.
Use
the blocks for forming words:
This is another great activity for manipulative play. Children are
engage forming words in the target language. Using your God given creativity,
you can come up with lots of ideas on games for forming words with the blocks.
3.
Use
the blocks for teaching the alphabet and syllables in the target language. Great for creating phonological awareness.
4.
Story
cube games: Use them
for creative language development by allowing and encouraging children to create
their own stories.
For older children you can play conjugation games by gluing different actions on the cubes for students to conjugate. For this activity check out my previous post Conjugation Cubes.

The uses are endless! They can be use for teaching, reinforcement and practicing vocabulary, shapes, actions,
instruments, animals, any subject you could think of.
If you are wondering how I made the numbers, letters and so on for the
cubes, I created the numbers, letters, etc. and using the Xyron Creative Station,
I made stickers and glued them on the
blocks!
The box the chalkboard blocks came in did not have the dimensions so I
measured them and they are 1.5 inch in width, length and height.
If you are able to get or purchase the chalkboard blocks and would like
to use the same numbers, letters, etc, that I used, just contact me at: musicandspanishfun@gmail.com and I will gladly send it to you free of charge!
If you don’t have available a sticker machine you could use two sided
tape. Not sure how it would stick but you can always give it a try! if you are unable to find the same kind of blocks, I found these other blocks on Amazon. You can check them out here.
