It seems like its hard to find ideas for adoption party themes, especially if you're adopting from foster care.  I've been planning Tadpole's adoption party and looking at all my old Pinterest ideas.  Here are some to consider if you're working on your own foster-to-adopt party.




Pun Party Themes
"Luke was Adopted Too" (Star Wars)
"Welcome to Our Zoo" (zoo)
"We're Wild About This One" (jungle)
"Wanted: Asleep or Awake" (cowboy)
"Bee-ing Loved" or "Sweet as Honey" (bees)
"We Found the Missing Piece" (puzzles)
"Showers of Blessings" (rain/umbrella/rainbows)
"You are My/Our Sunshine" (sunflowers/yellow)
"You Color Our World" (paint/color/art)
"Superman was Adopted Too" (superhero)
"Our Family was Built by Adoption" (construction)
"This is My Circus- These are My Clowns" (circus)

"Love Changes Everything" (metamorphosis)
"Stole My Heart"…

Multiplication Battleship for Math Practice

-
Image
Did you know that I take special request?  This free printable was created to fill a need for a follow homeschool mom.  Her kids are working on their times factor and could use some extra practice in a fun way.  She asked me to make her a multiplication battleship game.  After a bit of brainstorming, I had a printable all ready for her.


The PDF comes with a printable game board for beginners, with all numbers in order (shown below) and one for more advanced students with the numbers all jumbled.  The printable also includes two half-sheet recording sheets for keeping track of your opponent's ships.  There are also twenty battleships for sinking (extras to make it easier on mom/teacher).


I recommend laminating the whole set and using dry erase markers to keep track of the hits and misses.  Boats can be secured to the game board with tape, teacher tack, or velcro.
