Literacy Activities

I am really enjoying teaching first grade.  It has been challenging, but rewarding.  God has blessed me with so many different ideas.  I came up with three ideas for High Frequency Words and OA and OW. 
                                                        High Frequency Words List A, B, and C

 

 I use these High Frequency Words on my Word Wall.  I made list A and B.  There are two hundred High Frequency Words.  I have also used them to play games like Go Fish, and Memory.

OA and OW Story, Word Display, and Literacy Activities

 

 My students had so much fun learning how oa and ow found each other.  I made a wall display that comes with two songs and a short story.  My students loved singing to the songs.  It really helped them to remember the sounds that oa and ow make.  The literacy activities that come with it are a puzzle sort and picture/word match.  You have to sort both activities by oa and ow.

                                             OA and OW Word Sort and Word Scramble

  

 

I really liked making the word scramble.  I showed students the words with a picture.  Then I showed them the words scrambled and had them try to figure out what the words were.  The answers to the words are on the back.  It was really cool to see my students working so hard to try to figure out what a word says. 

My main goal is to have students walking around the room and reading the different words to their peers.

New to Blogging

This has been an interesting trip.  I have learned a lot about the internet and how to blog.  I have also learned that I have the most incredible husband.  He has helped me create this blog and fixed it where it would be user friendly for me.  Thank you Greg for always giving me your support.  May God have all of the credit for the many blessings he has bestowed upon me and my family.

I can not wait to start sharing all of my ideas with each one of you. 

New to blogging

I am really excited about starting something new.  Blogging hasn't been something that I have thought of before. It is more complicated than I thought it would be.  I want to say thank you to my amazing husband and our good friend Hunter for helping make this happen. 

I am now starting to sell my products on Teachers Pay Teachers.  Please check it out.  It is an AWESOME website that helps teachers find activities to do in the classroom.

I will post more later of what I am selling and doing in the classroom.
