Opposites Flashcards

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!).

Have your kids design their own cell phone case, respond to “texts” and develop their own emoji. I love this activity because it’s a great way to discuss the conventions of conversation.

Read It, Build It, Write It Dolch Word Literacy Center

I printed out and laminated the primer and first grade words. Then, set them up at a literacy center with a bucket of refrigerator magnets. One set of each was enough to keep students working for 15 minutes. You could also print small bundles of words and photocopy them for individual students. A great activity to engage students with hands-on materials while reviewing important Dolch Words. Includes all pre-primer, primer, first, second and third grade Dolch Words. Note: Be aware that you will need manipulative letters such as refrigerator magnets, letter tiles, etc.

Spelling CVC Words Activity

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!

This is a great way to reinforce the Short Vowel sounds! Your students cut out the pieces then glue them down to the letter that makes the corresponding short vowel sound. Comes out cute enough for a bulletin board!! Simple enough to use for Independent Work or a Center. I used it during an observation and my principal loved it!!

This is a great “any time” Center. It helps students become familiar with the classroom library and also serves as a great tool to help them become better at book selection. This would even be great to leave with a substitute in a pinch!

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.
