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!!

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

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.

A fun way to practice digraphs! Students use bingo dabbers (or crayons) to identify the digraph that completes each word. 3 pages. A great center activity or assessment.

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!

Students tap out the words to identify the missing letter. 2 pages for each: beginning, middle and ending sounds. CVC words. 6 pages total. A great assessment tool to determine if your children are hearing the sounds in words.

Cut out and assemble the snowmen according to the numbers on their hats and body parts. A fun no-prep mathtivity that you can use in many different ways. Makes a cute display when finished!

Your little ones will enjoy rhyming when it means filling in these adorable snowmen! Eight common endings. Makes a great literacy center!

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!!

Your students will have fun “dabbing” or coloring in the letters to spell CVC words. I’m editing this to include: I tried this in my own classroom and it was a wonderful tool to see who could spell CVC words. It worked so well because EVERYONE FINISHED IT!!! The kids really enjoy “dabbing” so it was no problem to get reluctant workers engaged!

Your students clip a clothes pin over the vowel that they hear in each word pictured. Then they flip it over and see if the pin covers the dot (You use a sharpie to place the dot prior to giving to the students). Includes 88 vowel cards that can be used from year to year.

A cute tool that can be used to introduce or reinforce sequencing. You can also use it as a story-planning tool!!

Teach your students to write detailed sentences by including a who, what, where and why. Includes two sets. Varying levels of difficulty. Blank page included for independence when they have mastered adding the details. Over 50 pages!!

I printed out and laminated the primer and first grade words. Then, set them up at a literacy center with a bucket of refrigerator magnets. One set of each was enough to keep students working for 15 minutes. You could also print small bundles of words and photocopy them for individual students. A great activity to engage students with hands-on materials while reviewing important Dolch Words. Includes all pre-primer, primer, first, second and third grade Dolch Words. Note: Be aware that you will need manipulative letters such as refrigerator magnets, letter tiles, etc.

A great little organizer that your students can use when reading Non Fiction texts. I love to use it with Scholastic or other news magazines.

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