Kindergarten winter activity
Print your choice of one of our 12 super cute word family snowman. You will also need a “pacman” cover for each snowman you print. I suggest printing in color, on cardstock, and cut out the snowman. Finally put the “pacman” cover on top of the snowman and use a brad to affix to the snowman body.
Word Family Spinner
Students can turn the cover to see all the words in the same word family.
Word Family Printable
This is a great literacy skill for early readers who will learn to recognize patterns in words and read simple words.

I am trying to find were on the website to download the snowman activities

I am having issues of printing these sheets out. The snowman are all coming out black. Like a black block around the head the body and the pictures. I have wasted lots of black ink. I wish I could send you a picture so you can see exactly how they printed. I am so disappointed.
I am so sorry you are having trouble, I know how frustrating those things can be. There is no reason in the download itself as to why it should happen. I just re-checked personally. Here are some problem solving steps I would take:
1) restart internet browser
2) re-open this page
3) download the printable (upper right corner of document) to your computer
4) print from the downloaded copy (at times your internet connection itself can cause issues)
5) when you print check your print options carefully for scaling, color, etc.
6) print one page at a time to ensure that if you find an unexpected issue it is only one page that needs reprinting.
Best of luck and enjoy!
Beth, these downloads are amazing. I home teach after school and I have a 6 year old who has concentration issues. These are excellent for him because they are tactile which he loves. Thank you.
You are welcome! So glad we can help you make learning FUN =)
