A Word Sort

Hey friends! I hope everyone is having a good weekend. It feels good knowing I have off tomorrow! :) Anyone out there have to work? My fiance has to work, but I am looking forward to a quiet house and spending time with my new kitty. ;) 

So yesterday, I posted an e word sort. Today I finished up an a one. Click on the pic if you'd like a copy! 

 Stay on the lookout for some valentine's stuff coming up soon...and some 100 day goodies! ;) We celebrate next friday! I can't believe how fast the year is going! Welp, I hope you all enjoy your Sunday. I'm off to workout. Thank God I lost the 2 pounds I was complaining about the other day. ;) But staying on track and working out everyday is tough work..ugh. If you work out, how do you stay motivated?

Sorting the E words

Hey everyone! Happy Saturday! It's so nice to see the sun! Last week, we had 4 days straight of rain. Today I'm making a quick post to share with you a freebie I made. After we finish up benchmark testing and get back into our routine, I plan on revamping my guided reading a bit. My school does not do a phonics curriculum for first grade which is really unfortunate because our kiddos need to practice, but I plan on making my word work portion of GR lessons focused on phonics skills. I plan on doing lots of word sorts and working with vowel sounds. I started with this e short/long vowel sort. If you'd like a copy to place in centers or to do with your guided reading groups, click the pic and leave a comment if you do! Thanks! :)

A few fun finds and a Freebie!

Hey friends! So yesterday, I went out with my mom to Michael's to get some more flowers for our wedding. We're doing silk for the reception centerpieces and saved about $1300! Whoo! But I was browsing the aisles and came across some good teacher finds. Let me share..

these wooden letters didn't have numbers on them, but I put them on with a sharpie

 I thought instead of buying a whole scrabble game to use the tiles for word work, I saw these and thought score! There was 60 in a package for $3.99

hehe!

 

 

this version of Old Lady is adorable for back to school. She swallows everything and spits out a brand new backpack!

I love all of Natasha Wing's books and this one is definitely a keeper!

I also got one more thing, but I'm saving it for Monday Made-it! :)

Finally, I made some activities to go with the word tiles. Click on the pics to grab your copies! Have a wonderful Wednesday!
