I’ve also included a word study lesson plan and set of activities, because, much like vocabulary, I find that word study works best within context. As a result, I have identified word patterns within trade books and have developed lesson plans and resources based on the word study that can be done with specific books. The lesson plan and set of resources for “Wilma Unlimited” focuses on Three Sounds of the Suffix “ed” and includes the following:
- Lesson Plan
- Interactive Activity
- Practice Page
- Independent Word Work
This set of resources also includes the following:
- Running Record Assessment
- Common Core Aligned Comprehension Assessment
- Answer Keys
- Common Core State Standard Alignment
- BONUS: Surprise Sample Resource
I hope that you will enjoy using my resources along with your copy or copies of “Wilma Unlimited” by Kathleen Krull.
