I am SUPER EXCITED to tell you about our  Shape of the Week Focus Wall chart , joining our HeidiSongs Focus Wall for active learners! I love this because since it is designed to go on a pocket chart, it is fully customizable, and includes elements that are active to keep kids engaged. You can use as many or as few parts as you like, so it will work for pre-K through first grade. We even included NINE flat shapes and FOUR solid shapes, so there should be everything that you need in this set. These are the shapes that we included: Flat shapes:   circle, square, triangle, rectangle, oval, hexagon, trapezoid, octagon, pentagon. Solid shapes:   cube, cone, sphere, cylinder. This is what my TK (Transitional Kindergarten) focus wall set looks like: The red pocket chart above was purchased on Amazon in a set of four small pocket charts, and it is 14" x 17". This is the full set I would use in first grade or Kindergarten, (at least later in the year!) ...

Take a look at what we've added! The first thing we've added is the Alphabet Action card! For our existing HeidiSongs fans, you may already recognize that the artwork came right out of our Alphabet Action book , (which itself is a bargain at just six bucks!) Each card has an action for each letter. For example, for the letter A, we stomp on ants and say, "Ants!" and for the letter B, we say "Boo!" It also matches up exactly with our very popular Alphabet Action song , which is in our Letters and Sounds collection , available on our HeidiSongs.tv Video Streaming Site ! Below is a video of my students doing the song with me in 2010!!! Gosh, that feels like a lifetime ago!  LOL! Those kids must be 15 or 16 years old now! Of course, the current ani...
