Are you in full school swing yet? Do you start after Labor Day? Either way, these great resources will be a hit in your classroom in September! Click on the pictures to see them in my store.
I'm sure practicing reading sight words is one of the things on your list of things to do! This fun game is editable. Type in your words to differentiate or make different sets of words for each week or quarter. Kids take turns picking and reading words. Picking POP means all your words go back in the bucket!
After learning about the Science of Reading this summer, I reaffirmed how important phonics instruction is! These cards can be displayed or used as flashcards to reinforce common phonics sounds taught in 1st Grade.
Practicing those phonics skills is much needed. I use these word strips to reinforce sounds taught and for fluency in small groups. I also use as quick assessments and to track progress by timing the reader.
Are you finding that your students need more handwriting practice? These sheets use the floors of a house to model how to write "upstairs," "downstairs," and "basement" letters. Practice both capital and lowercase letters.
Looking for some nonfiction close reading activities? I have over 70 animals to choose from. Here's what one teacher thought:
