Once assembled, teachers introduce a rhyme or story to students by manipulating the story pieces on a cookie sheet while reading the rhyme or story. Teachers reinforce basic skills such as story recall, story sequencing and counting after they read the story to students.

Cookie Sheet Activity Quick Tips

1.  If you really want to incorporate these activities in your classroom, equip your classroom with four to five quality cookie sheets.  This allows you to use one cookie sheet for the story or rhyme and keep four tasks set up in centers or workstations for the entire week.

2.  Use very tiny pieces of magnetic tape on your manipulative pieces. It really only takes a tiny strip to make a piece stick to the cookie sheet.

3. Store cookie sheet stories and activities in ziplock bags when not in use. This keeps everything together and neatly organized.
