1-2-3 Do Still More Mustache Lessons With Me!

I often turned my Y5's into detectives, so that they could scamper around with their clipboards and collect data.  They absolutely LOVED this.

Run off the templates, and explain to students that they can think up any yes or no question and then interview their classmates for 5 or 10 minutes.  Set a timer.

We did graphing every day as a whole group and center activity, so I knew my Y5's would be able to take the data they had collected,  and in-put it into their own graph.

Model the activity, by asking a question, making tally marks, and filling in the various forms, and then turn your students loose.  I know they will enjoy themselves.

When everyone has completed their data collection and analysis sheets, call them together as a whole group, to review their findings.

When I was dreaming up "mustache stuff" I thought making a mustache game, that would review colors and color words, would be fun.

You can use the templates for a puzzle center; individual worksheets that students, color, cut & glue, or for a spinner game.

Finally, I designed a mustache template for upper and lowercase letters, numbers and number words, as well as shapes and shape words. 

The collection of cards makes a nice wall decoration, or cut them apart and use them as puzzles, or to play Memory Mustache Match and "I Have; Who Has?" games.

1-2-3 Come Do Mustache Activities With Me!

As promised, here are some fun mustache things to do with your kiddo's.

mustache activities, mustache lessons, moustache, mustache posters, mustache question words, mustache decorations, I mustache you a question, common core mustache, I mustache you a question activities,I just love the phrase, "I mustache you a question." I think it's a cute way to introduce question activities to children.

I don't know about your students, but my Y5's had a difficult time understanding question statements, versus telling statements. 

Whenever a visitor would say: "Does anyone have a question?" I'd cringe, because I knew the majority of waving hands couldn't wait to share something, instead of ask something.

To help them understand the concept, I made a list of question words.  I told them, that if their sentence didn't start with one of those words, then it wasn't an "asking" sentence, and they were NOT asking a question.

I made an entire activity mustache packet based around the question words.
