My students were started to get bored with my centers so I’ve been wracking my brain for new ideas! I think they’ll love this!

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.

Simply print out the adorable kid-friendly cards, cut them out, toss them in a baggy and you’re good to go! These adorable cards present pairs of opposites. The pictures provide clues to the word meanings in case your early readers need help. You will only need to print a few sets if you plan on using these in centers. OR you can print a class set and have students cut them out and glue onto construction paper- I might try that next year instead of the center (which my kids loved!).

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!

Get your students interacting with Fiction and Non-Fiction Text. Included are 22 unique organizers that are primary friendly and are Common Core relevant. Ex. Snowman Character Organizer, Train Story Summary, Ice Cream Scoop Organizer and much more!

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.

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.

Your students color the words according to the digraph they contain. As they color, they keep track using tally marks. Great practice while having fun! I use as a Literacy Center.

I simple activity that your students can do independently. Reviews story elements for Fiction and asks for facts from Non-Fiction. Can be used as a center, homework or any way you’d like!

Students cut out the pieces then put them together to build compound words. A fun tactile way to enhance your teaching of compound words 4 pages total. For 1-3 grades.

A super cute way for your students to review phonics patterns! Glued sounds, ending, bonus letters, CVC words and digraphs. So fun!

Five cute Month activities with a train theme: Place the missing month car, put the months in order, use the clues to figure out which cargo to deliver, wordsearch and word scramble. By the time they’re done, they WILL know the months of the year!! Would be great for Center Time!

This cute little book is so easy to assemble and makes for a great beginning of the year Center or Independent Activity. Get kids started with Conventions of Print, Letter Recognition and Centers Routine. Print, copy, slice right down the middle and staple! Voila!

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 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.

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!!

This is collection of anonymous primary poems. Each poem has an adorable picture and a Reading Response Task. 24 poems

This is an adorable motivational tool that will get your students writing. Print out the cubes (I like to use card-stock) and assemble (glue spots labeled to make it easy!). Then have your kids pick three cubes to roll. They use the images on those cubes in their writing. Writing stationary included that has them circle the images they rolled for teacher reference. Two different types of lines included to suit K/1 and 2/3 writing. Enjoy!

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