Use this set of 32 building task cards with an August theme to help build fine motor and problem-solving skills while encouraging creativity and persistence. Includes cards for special days in August such as National Lighthouse Day, Frankenstein Day, Race Your Mouse Day and much more. There are a variety of building tasks ranging from easy to complex which allows you to use this set with children of all ages and abilities.
Three styles of cards are included for each build. One is a full-color version with a cartoon picture, the second is a print-friendly version of the first, and the third is a color version with no pictures. The picture version is good to use with children who need an idea of what to build before they start, while the no-picture version is ideal for your perfectionists who would get frustrated if they could not replicate the picture exactly or to allow more creativity.
Print on heavy paper (cardstock) and laminate to use again and again. Works great in classrooms and homeschools for STEM or STEAM centers, early finishers, morning time or just for fun! You can use blocks (LEGO, DUPLO, etc.) or any craft items for the building materials. Provide children with an assortment of materials, choose a card, and watch them create!
Includes:
32 task cards in three versions
• Color with picture
• Black and white with picture
