5-in-1 Alphabet Cards for Letter of the Week, Phonics, Literacy Centers and More! These 5-in-1 cards are a helpful addition to any preschool or kindergarten phonics program and can be used all year long! There are six images for every letter of the alphabet (even X and Z!). The name of each image is typed below it with the initial consonant left as a blank. The images are cute, colourful, and fun. Lots of numbers, animals, and transportation words are provided. Also, some more challenging and unique words are included. How to Use: These cards can be used in a variety of ways in your classroom. Here are a few ideas: 1) To use the cards as a mystery book: print all the pages for one letter and staple them together as a book. “Read” the book to the class, and ask them to guess the letter of the week. 2) To save paper, you could show the slides on a projector or interactive whiteboard instead of printing a paper book. 3) When printed in colour, they make great posters for your classroom. Choose your favourite from each letter and hang them as your alphabet! 4) Print some images from each letter (4 or 6 per page) to use as flashcards to help reinforce sounds. If you laminate them, they could be a centre in your classroom. 5) Finally, if you print two cards from each letter, you can use them for a challenging memory matching game! Grades to Use With: These cards are designed for students in preschool through kindergarten who are learning early phonics letter sounds. These cards focus on initial sounds only. What's Included: 159 Pages in ready-to-print PDF Format: Title Page Instructions Mystery Book Title Page 6 pages for each of the 26 letters of the alphabet

Writing Center Words & Write-the Room Activity –THANKSGIVING

Writing Center Words & Write-the Room Activity –THANKSGIVING
ELA, Writing, Creative Writing, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, Centers, Activities

Help your students with their creative writing with these Thanksgiving themed words and images for your K-2 classroom Writing Center. Words with images include: Pilgrim hat,Pilgrims, Native Americans, headdress, Mayflower, Cornucopia, corn, pumpkin, turkey, turkey dinner, wishbone, cranberries, pie, slice of pumpkin pie, family, and Thanksgiving Dinner. My students really love working in the Writing Center! I have plenty of tools and “help” available to them, and I constantly switch out these themed pages which they can't wait to get their hands on. I print two copies, so there is no arguing about having to share, and I laminate them for durability before placing in the Writing Center. Students can easily grab a laminated word page and use it to help write their stories. Page 4 of the PDF is for the Writing Center. Print and laminate one or two and place it in the Writing Center for your students to access as needed. Also included are 16 cards for a Write–the–Room activity if you choose to use them. (I have only used this with my Kindergarten class.) These cards are four-per-page, with the same words and images used for the Writing Center. Pages 5-8 of the PDF are cards for use as a Write-the-Room activity. You may wish to laminate for durability to be able to use year-after-year, and use sticky tack (poster putty) to mount it to walls, bookshelves, file cabinets, etc. I find this is easier than tape. On of my grade-level teachers prints in gray scale, tapes them up, and then lets students take them home after use. Whatever works best for you. Recording pages for the Write-the-Room are included on pages 9 and 10. Page 9 is a full-size recording sheet, and page 10 has 2 half-size recording sheets if you use mini-clip boards like I do. Please note - the first three pages are for "packaging" purposes.
