I am
SUPER excited to be participating in my second Trade and Grade! This month the ALWAYS AMAZING Amanda from The
Primary Gal paired us up and I was paired with Sarah from A Sunny Day in First
Grade. It was PERFECT timing – this
bossy R set was EXACTLY what my firsties needed!
The pack is CHOCK full of goodies! It has independent practice pages, literacy
center activities, and a SUPER CUTE craftivity!
Read on and see how my kiddos used the pack and Sarah has been SO SO
SWEET and share a sample of her pack with my readers! Please tell her how much you LOVE it by
leaving a comment here or over on her blog!
She is writing all about one of my packs on her blog, so check it out!! J
Worksheets
How
often are you looking for quick practice for your kiddos to complete? I know that I like to have kids complete a
practice reinforce page daily as one of their activities during literacy center
time. These practice pages all reinforce
words with er, ir, or ur. Here are some
pics of them completing these sheets!
This one
was their favorite!
There
are multiple versions of this one – which is great practice!
Literacy Centers
This
pack includes 2 sorts. The first sort
asks students to look at words and sort them into er, ir, and ur groups. Here’s a peek at a few of my firsties working
on it.
The
second sort asks the kiddos to match a picture to a word that has an er, ir, or
ur. I wanted to get a picture of them
working on this one, but I missed it!!
This game asked kids to read the words and color the box if they got it correct. We used laminated mats and dry erase markers. This was a favorite and they asked to play again and again!
Finally,
the pack has a FABULOUS booklet that could launch the unit. She has them organized in two ways to match
what is easier for you (teacher assembly or child assembly). My kids LOVED reading and coloring the book.
And this
was the perfect set up for….
Craftivity
We do A
LOT of crafts in my classroom and I LOVE when they connect so easily to what I
am teaching. The kiddos fell in LOVE
with the dog from the mini book they read and colored and in this craft they
got to meet him again!
The
craft is easy to copy and cut and put together.
In the
end, kiddos get to come up with ir, er, and ur words that they can spell. Many of my kids could do this independently,
but some benefitted from working in groups and using the room for ideas and
spelling tips.
How cute
are these??
I am SO
excited to have been able to try this unit out this year and plan to use it
again next year! Are you as excited as I
am? Sarah was SWEET enough to share a
sample freebie with you! Find it
