Happy Monday!

This file has been requested multiple times . I am glad that it has been found useful for you and your students.

This file works great for whole group and small groups. All the words on the deck have already been explicitly taught and this is one way we review. We show the slide and students say the whole word, tap each letter name, and then say the whole word again. When we get to the animated slide, they do a holiday action. In this case, students get to say, "Ho, ho, ho!"

 

 

 

They love it!

If you're interested in this FREE file, head over to my Linktree and look under Tricky Words. I have one more version coming later this week.

Happy Sunday!

Hopping on to share my December visual drill file with keyword support. It has been updated with some new animation. This visual drill provides the anchor picture support we decided upon as a school. Once you make your own copy, you'll be able to change the picture to meet your ELA curriculum.

The visual drill is part of our daily ELA lesson. Why? Learned sounds are repeated, which fine-tunes the sound/symbol relationship, thus building automaticity. The teacher shows the students previously learned sound cards- in this case, the slide-one at a time on which are written the letter/letters known. The keyword pictures provided on the cards give support for the recall of the sound if needed. The student produces the sound the letter/letters represent. When a student makes a mistake on a letter/sound, the teacher provides immediate corrective feedback.

Students begin by saying: d, dog, /d/. As the sound-symbol correlation is strengthened and becomes automatic, we remove the keyword picture and students say d, /d/, and eventually only /d/ when shown the card. 

 

 

 

I love the digital file because it provides a lot of engagement. We also incorporate a hand/body movement for multi-modal input. 

 

This second file is also for the visual drill, but they do not contain any keyword support.

Happy Friday everyone!

One week down and two to go before my winter break begins. There's so much to do and so little time.

Last year, I shared this file and it has now been updated to include CCVC/CVCC words. Many of my kindergarten students are so ready for longer words already.👊 Let's continue to provide all the blending practice our students need for word recognition mastery. This file does have a Santa theme, but I have 1 remake in process and 1 new one gingerbread theme coming soon. 

 

 

 

 

I hope you students love it as much as mine.

Happy Monday everyone!

So do you like Lucky Charms? I personally really liked it as a kid and occasionally still have a bowl.

Today I came into work with all my leprechaun goodies. I was more popular than Santa Claus. They were over the moon to use all the manipulatives and our thematic placemats.

I also used this file with my kinder students and every single one knew about Lucky Charms. Engagement Learning

Let me know which CVC+ file so far is your kiddos' favorite.

I'm working on 5 more. I gave the kiddos a sneak peek-they cheered. YES!

Happy Marshmallows,
