What A Weekend!

Did you get some AMAZING freebies this weekend?  I loaded up on some great products to use in my room, but best of all, I met some WONDERFUL ladies.  I feel like they are friends.  This whole blogging, TPT, FB experience really has been inspiring for me.  And I just want to share how thankful I am for all of you.

Ok...enough sappy sweet love...onto some phonics! :)

Melanie and I have put together almost a whole years worth of practice packs to match first grade Fundations!  We have also started a set of games to go with the units.  The first unit of games we did was for Unit 7 -nk and -ng words.  This was our FREEBIE last weekend, so if you checked us out on FB you may have downloaded it.  You can find it HERE for $5.  There are 6 games included - Bingo, Memory, Build-and-Spell a Word, I Have...Who Has...?, Trick Word Coloring, and Real and Nonsense Word Sort.  We have been using them in our classrooms as a reteaching tool for some of our kiddos who didn't master the skill during the unit, but if we had made them earlier they could have been a part of our word work center time too!

Here is a quick peek:





Mel and I also finished up the next in the practice pack series today - Unit 10!  Unit 10 is unique in our opinion because it has a DUAL focus - 5 sound blends (branch, stunt) and Suffixes -ed and -ing.  You can find the pack HERE for $3.  You can also try to enter our FB giveaway if you read this in time.  I will choose a random winner at 7pm EST on 1.30.14.  Just visit our FB page at www.facebook.com/ateachermom1 (make sure you "LIKE" us).  

Take a sneak peek of the pack before you enter:

  2. HI!! Thanks for your purchase!! Fundations is phonics program, but we also base all our spelling off if it. It was published by Wilson (they have a Special Education Reading Program). It's worth taking a look at since you need a spelling program. It's a great two-for-one (phonics and spelling). :)

  3. Thank you so much for creating things specifically for Fundations. We use that program at our school and it's hard to find things that match it perfectly. I really appreciate it.
