ABC Practice Pages

When does school start for you??? I go back in 2 weeks! For the first month in Kinderworld, we do a quick review of all  the letters A-Z. When I start the Daily 5, we focus on 1-2 letters a week.
For Word Work during The Daily 5, I use the following 2 Packs:
1. My ABC Handout Book
2. ABC Practice Pages.

Both Packs can be used in several ways:

1.Use a page a day as morning work.

2.Create a journal and use it during small group instruction.

3.use the pages/journal during the DAILY 5 for Word Work.

4.Use the pages/journal as a literacy center.

5.Use it as ABC review in the beginning of the school year.

My ABC Handwriting Book can be found HERE on TPT.

See examples below:

The Alphabet Practice Pages can be found HERE on TPT.

For more information on how I incorporate these pages in the classroom, read all about

the Daily 5 HERE and The First 25 Days of Daily 5 HERE.

Enjoy the last couple weeks of summer!!

   

  

Crayola Board for Word Work!

New Light Up Dry Erase Crayola Board for Word Work!

I found this light up board at Target and it's on sale now for $20.00!
My daughter, Makena, who's in kindergarten, loved playing with it (I always test things out on her!).
The board can be used for sight words or word family practice during word work!

When the board is turned off, the writing looks normal. When you turn the board on, all the words light up and glow in a neon color! It's so cool!!!

It's battery operated and comes with 6 neon markers that attach to the back. It erases really easy with a dry eraser or damp cloth and it can stand vertically or horizontally.

I think this would be a great addition to our WORD WORK station during the daily 5!
Kids just LOVE anything new!
