Gardening Alphabet Cards

Gardening Alphabet Cards
ELA, Language Development, Pre-Reading, Kindergarten, Preschool, Activities, Flashcards, Worksheets & Printables, Games

These gardening themed alphabet cards are perfect for students learning with a fun spring theme. They are a simple, engaging way to help students practice recognizing the letters of the alphabet. What is Included: This set of alphabet cards includes one capital letter and one lowercase letter card for each letter of the alphabet with a fun garden theme. Ways to Use the Cards: Play a matching game by pairing capital letters with their lowercase counterparts. Attach a paper clip to each letter card and use a magnetic fishing pole to “catch” letters in a fun fishing game. Provide a sand or salt tray so students can practice writing the letters shown on each card. Hide the letter cards around the classroom and have students search for them during an exciting letter hunt. Have students place the cards in alphabetical order. Create a pocket chart game by placing the cards in a pocket chart and hiding a picture behind one letter. Students guess which letter is hiding the picture. Add small objects or pictures that begin with each letter for students to match to the correct letter card. When to Use: Literacy Centers – Add the letter cards to a literacy center for students to practice matching independently or with a partner. Morning Tubs or Baskets – Place the letter cards in a morning bin for students to work on as classmates arrive. Small Group Instruction – Use the letter cards during small group time to provide extra support for students who need additional practice recognizing the letters of the alphabet. Make letter recognition fun with these gardening letter cards! This low-prep activity is easy for teachers to prepare. Teachers just simply print, cut, and laminate for durability. The letter cards fit perfectly in a task box for effortless setup, cleanup, and storage. Skills Assessed: These cards, depending on the materials added, can assess both letter recognition of capital and lowercase letters as well as identifying beginning sounds.

PREPOSITIONS STORY, ACTIVITY & WORKSHEETS | Pet Fish Theme
ELA, Language Development, Reading, Vocabulary, Reading Comprehension, Kindergarten, Activities, Read Alouds, Worksheets & Printables

Pet fish, Gordon and Gabby, are eager to help your young learners practice and/or review the concept of prepositions. This product, designed for learners in Pre-K and kindergarten, aligns with language arts standards. You’ll begin this mini-unit by reading the story, A Great Day for Gordon, where your learners will meet the title character and follow along throughout his exciting journey. To reinforce concepts in the story, your learners will play the hands-on learning activity and focus on positional language with words such as in, out, under, near, far, and around. This foundational skill will lead to a better understanding in asking or answering questions about stories and reading passages. The 5 worksheets will give your learners the opportunity to strengthen fine motor skills through tracing, coloring, drawing, and writing. They will identify the locations of Gordon and Gabby using specific prepositional words and match prepositions with their opposites. To round out the worksheets, your learners will write a prepositional sentence based off a prompt and illustrate their writing. The three main components of this product are sure to engage your learners and have them wanting to hear Gordon’s story again and again. Assembly of the book and game pieces require upfront prep work, but if laminated, they can be used year-over-year, saving you time in the long run. The worksheets are print and go, and along with the story and game pieces, are available in both color and black & white versions. Use them in large and small group settings, or as an individual learning activity. Laminate the color versions of the worksheets and you’ll have a write-on/wipe-off activity for learning centers. Check out the details of the product’s components below. A GREAT DAY FOR GORDON BOOK: 15-page, fishbowl shaped story about Gordon the pet goldfish HANDS-ON PREPOSITION LEARNING ACTIVITY: game pieces (2 fish, castle, plant, treasure chest, aquarium gravel), 12 preposition cards with easy-to-read sentences WORKSHEET 1: learners will identify if the location of Gordon matches the prepositional word (coloring).

The Top 500 Phrasal Verbs

The Top 500 Phrasal Verbs
ELA, Language Development, Vocabulary, Not Grade Specific, Activities

Phrasal verbs are so common in English. They are also necessary to speak the language naturally. They all combine a verb with a preposition (or two). What makes them difficult to learn for some students is the fact that they often have a meaning totally different to the meaning of the base verb that forms them. However, they are an integral part of the English language, and they are especially useful for oral communication. What is more, when you master phrasal verbs, you can also master idioms with ease, and everyday language is no longer a problem. We have gathered the 500 most common phrasal verbs of the English language in this ebook. They are presented alphabetically for easier reference, and contain definitions and examples for each one of them. You can use this as a teaching tool, as a reference book, or as a revision resource. The choice is your. Enjoy teaching!
