This cute little book is so easy to assemble and makes for a great beginning of the year Center or Independent Activity. Get kids started with Conventions of Print, Letter Recognition and Centers Routine. Print, copy, slice right down the middle and staple! Voila!

This is a great way to reinforce the Short Vowel sounds! Your students cut out the pieces then glue them down to the letter that makes the corresponding short vowel sound. Comes out cute enough for a bulletin board!! Simple enough to use for Independent Work or a Center. I used it during an observation and my principal loved it!!

A great center…kids use bingo dabbers or crayons to indicate which letter represent the sound that is missing. Can also be used as morning work, independent practice, remediation or homework. There are two sets. Each with 24 pictures. Enjoy 4 full pages.

My first grade students struggled with the concept of syllables. So, I made this center which served as a great solution. There is a picture, a word and dots representing the syllabic breakdown of each word. A great re-usable center or independent activity. I printed and laminated my cards and plan on using over and over! Enjoy!!

This is an adorable motivational tool that will get your students writing. Print out the cubes (I like to use card-stock) and assemble (glue spots labeled to make it easy!). Then have your kids pick three cubes to roll. They use the images on those cubes in their writing. Writing stationary included that has them circle the images they rolled for teacher reference. Two different types of lines included to suit K/1 and 2/3 writing. Enjoy!

A fun activity to as Center Work, Independent Practice, Morning Work or any other way you can imagine. The best part, no prep! Just take out scissors and glue- coloring is optional!! The kids cut out the picture, then glue them down onto the correct Digraph! Enjoy! 7 pages

Keep your students writing over the summer with these high interest writing prompts. A simple prompt for each day of the summer. 8 pages

Set the stage for Valentine’s Day with this super cute rhyming activity! Works as a great literacy center!

This is a great “any time” Center. It helps students become familiar with the classroom library and also serves as a great tool to help them become better at book selection. This would even be great to leave with a substitute in a pinch!

Comes with a full color double sided “mini-book” on Polar Bears along with a Fact and Opinion organizer. Print the mini-books for the whole class (laminate and keep forever) or just make a set for Guided Reading. You can keep the Fact and Opinions on the same sheet or have the children cut them out and make a bulletin board with them! I made an adorable board by cutting out a giant polar bear and putting the Facts cards on one side and the Opinion cards on the other side. Very cute and very easy. MY STUDENTS LOVED THIS BOOK AND ACTIVITY!!

A great way to introduce your students to Autobiographies. When finished, it looks adorable and makes a great display.

26 pages of Find the Letter. Perfect for Kindergarten or as a review for First Graders that first week of school. Have your kids color in the gumballs of the letter they are looking for- I use bingo stampers which is a load of fun!

A great way to provide your students with choices that will allow them to self-differentiate. Print the menu on 8 1/2 x 11 paper then fold in half. I send home the worksheets inserted inside the menu each Monday. This has been a hit with both parents and students. Can also be used at Literacy Centers.

Students unscramble the words on each will to create a sentence. Each “wheel” contains a word with a capital letter to indicate the start of the sentence AND ending punctuation behind the word that should end the sentence. You can hand out one sheet at a time or create a bundle.

The most excitement I experience teaching First Grade is when we begin our Letter Writing Unit. The children write real letters to friends and businesses then wait for their responses. It’s a load of fun and teaches authentically. Included in this packet are directions for how to write post-cards, friendly letters, business letters, how to address envelopes, a template for use in your class for a business letter writing campaign and a letter to parents requesting the address of a friend or family member. Directions included!!

A great introduction to writing a biography. Explains what a biography is and walks students through the biography writing process. Teacher must decide if students conduct research on the internet, use a library book or use both!
