Numbers 0-20 Hide and Seek

Thu, 6 September 2018 07:42:36 +0000

Numbers 0-20 Hide and Seek

This number set includes a page for each number 0-20. Students are given directions to color the number a particular color. Students are to make it a game of “hide and seek” as they look to find (tag) the directed number on each page. The numbers on each page are randomly placed for finding and coloring.

To add more skills and to include different levels of activities, students can flip to the back side of their paper and write number 0-20.

I hope your students enjoy this game of hide and seek as they learn to recognize numbers 0-20.

Thank you for stopping by!

SAVE 18% off of these readers when purchasing this bundle.
OR
This resource is now available in an Emergent Reader Sight Word BUNDLE saving 25% off of the individual readers.

This 141 page bundle includes five emergent readers, one reader for each of the sight words (the, of, and, a, and to) which are connected to several CCGPS listed below.

You can find PREVIEWS for each of the five emergent readers included in this bundle at the links below:

Emergent Reader: Sight Word: the
Emergent Reader: Sight Word: of
Emergent Reader: Sight Word: and
Emergent Reader: Sight Word: a
Emergent Reader: Sight Word: to

Each of the five readers include this description:

This 13 page book includes a title page with bubble letters spelling the focused sight word for students to color, then 10 pages include a black and white picture at the top of each page with a sentence using the focused sight word. There are two more pages asking students to draw a picture of their own and write a sentence of their own using the sight word, and then the final page asks students to trace the sight word three times and then write it three times on their own on the blank line. After this, there are 13 additional pages with the exact pictures and words as the first 13 pages. The only difference is that on this second copy of the book, the sight word being focused on is dotted on each page for students to trace.

The pages of the book are not numbered giving the teacher flexibility of removing pages not desired when using in small guided reading groups for differentiation.

This 13 page book is designed so that you can copy the book, cut in half, staple, and then it is ready for use.

Students can benefit from this reader by tracking print, identifying spaces between words, identifying particular letters of the alphabet, recognizing sounds (beginning, middle, and ending) in each word, and reading sight words and grade level text. For extension activities, students could add another sentence to each page giving details about each picture shown. The black and white pictures allow students the opportunity to color the pictures. This reader is great for guided reading groups, homework, or literacy center activities.

***This is the first bundle of 20 bundles for emergent readers for the first hundred popular sight words (high frequency words) in the works. The readers will build on the words focused on in the previous readers as much as possible.

ELACCKRF1a. Follow words from left to right, top to bottom, and page-by-page.
ELACCKRF1d. Recognize and name all upper and lowercase letters of the alphabet.
ELACCKRF1b. Recognize that spoken words are represented in written language by specific sequences of letters.
ELACCKRF1c. Understand that words are separated by spaces in print. ELACCKRF3a. Demonstrate basic knowledge of one-to-one letter-sound correspondences by producing the primary or many of more frequent sounds for each consonant.
ELACCKRF3c. Read common high-frequency words by sight.
ELACCKRF4. Read emergent-reader texts with purpose and understanding.

-am Word Family Book

The PREVIEW shows every page included.

This product is also available in a BUNDLE saving you 12% at the link below!

Word Family Books Packet (-am, -et, -ig, -og, and -un)

Integrating writing into every standard gives students writing practice which leads to success. Word families are great for rhyming and making words with manipulative letters, but also for listening for letter sounds and stretching those words to hear every sound. Writing those matching sounds and then blending the words to check for accuracy goes hand in hand with reading skills. This 7 page book is designed so that you can copy the book, cut it in half, staple, and then it is ready for use. Each page has an -am picture with three blanks for students to write each am word. Each page also has two blank lines under the picture/word for students to create sentences for each picture in the -am word family. The six -am pictures included in this book are jam, ham, Sam (boy), Pam (girl), ram, and yam. I hope your students enjoy creating their own sentences for the am word family pictures.

Fishing Read and Write - Cut and Paste (Close Reading)

Mon, 3 September 2018 11:28:46 +0000

Fishing Read and Write

This product is NOW AVAILABLE in a Read and Write Bundle (Set 4) offering a SAVINGS of 12%

***THIS FISHING READ AND WRITE IS #28 OF 28 READ AND WRITES IN MY STORE; HOWEVER, IT IS THE FIRST READ AND WRITE TO HAVE FIVE PAGES. THIS READ AND WRITE ALSO INCLUDES A CUT AND PASTE SIGHT WORD PAGE AND AN ADDITIONAL WRITING PAGE NOT INCLUDED IN THE PREVIOUSLY CREATED READ AND WRITES. PLEASE LOOK AT THE PREVIEWS AND READ THE DESCRIPTIONS IN THE OTHER READ AND WRITES BEFORE PURCHASING TO KNOW WHAT IS INCLUDED IN EACH ONE. THANK YOU!

Take a look at the PREVIEW To see each page included.

In this five page Fishing Read and Write pack, students will read the one page fishing story and color the pictures. Then there are two pages with five sentences on each page about the story. Each sentence has a missing word. At the end of each sentence, there are two words for students to choose the correct missing word. Students will circle the word that correctly completes the sentence matching the story on the first page, and then write the correct word in the blank. The next page is a cut and paste sight word activity. Five sentences from the story are shown with a missing sight word. The five missing sight words are at the bottom of the page for students to cut and glue the correct word to complete the sentence. For both of the above activities, have students go back and find the sentence in the story and underline or highlight the sentence to show where they found the answer in the story. This will help them complete the activities with the correct answer by going back to the text which is what close reading is all about (digging deeper). The last page is a writing activity that asks two questions about fishing: 1. What do you like to do when you go fishing? 2. Where do you go fishing? This writing activity gives students the opportunity to make self to text connections.

This is a great reading and comprehension check for guided reading, a mini lesson, a literacy center, or homework. It is also great for introducing close reading to look back into the story to find the answers.

Summer Fix It Up Sentences (Capital Letters and Ending Punctuation)

Sun, 2 September 2018 09:01:03 +0000

Summer Fix It Up Sentences (Capital Letters and Ending Punctuation) – Kindergarten, first grade, and second grade writing and reading

This activity is connected to the CCGPS ELACCKL2a. Capitalize the first word in a sentence and the pronoun I.

This packet contains 6 pages. Each page has a simple story on it including five sentences about summer. The six stories are about the pool, popsicles, ice cream, sandcastles, my pail, and watermelon.

The sentences are not written correctly. The first letter in each sentence has not been capitalized, and the ending punctuation is missing.

Have your students rewrite each sentence correctly. Use capital letters correctly and add the correct ending punctuation. The sentences used contain frequently used sight words, decodable words that students should be able to read, and a few other common nouns that students see often and should be able to figure out using the small picture clue and/or title.

These activities are great for morning work, literacy centers, and homework or for a quick mini lesson on including capital letters and ending punctuation.

Students can read the story to a partner or to the teacher after correcting the sentences. Students could also add other details to the story using the back of their paper.

Take a look at the PREVIEW to see all pages included.

You can find PREVIEWS for each of the five emergent readers included in this bundle at the links at the bottom of the page.

Each of the five readers includes this description:

This 13 page book includes a title page with bubble letters spelling the focused sight word for students to color, and then 10 pages include a black and white picture at the top of each page with a sentence using the focused sight word. There are two more pages asking students to draw a picture of their own and write a sentence of their own using the sight word, and then the final page asks students to trace the sight word three times and then write it three times on their own on the blank line. After this, there are 13 additional pages with the exact pictures and words as the first 13 pages. The only difference is that on this second copy of the book, the sight word being focused on is dotted on each page for students to trace.

The pages of the book are not numbered giving the teacher flexibility of removing pages not desired when using in small guided reading groups for differentiation.

This 13 page book is designed so that you can copy the book, cut in half, staple, and then it is ready for use.

Students can benefit from this reader by tracking print, identifying spaces between words, identifying particular letters of the alphabet, recognizing sounds (beginning, middle, and ending) in each word, and reading sight words and grade level text. For extension activities, students could add another sentence to each page giving details about each picture shown. The black and white pictures allow students the opportunity to color the pictures. This reader is great for guided reading groups, homework, or literacy center activities.

***This is the fifth bundle of 20 bundles for emergent readers for the first hundred popular sight words (high frequency words) in the works. The readers will build on the words focused on in the previous readers as much as possible.

Opinion Writing Packet

This activity is connected to CCGPS ELACCKW1: Use a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing to compose opinion pieces in which they tell a reader the topic or the name of the book they are "writing" about and state an opinion or preference about the topic or book. These opinion writing activities are great to put in a writing center for students to choose which pictures to use to give their opinions about. Most packs include two picture choices. Each page includes two picture choices for students to choose between to tell which they think is the best. Students love telling which item they like better. This activity encourages students to give the reason why they think their choice is better. Teachers can also use these writing activities as a whole class activity. Assigning these activities for a homework assignment can include parents in helping increase their child’s writing skills. However you choose to use these activities, I hope your students develop a love for writing.

Emergent Reader: Sight Word: for

Wed, 29 August 2018 07:07:02 +0000

Emergent Reader: Sight Word: for

This emergent reader for the sight word "for" is connected to several CCGPS listed below. This 13 page book includes a title page with bubble letters spelling the focused sight word for students to color, then 10 pages include a black and white picture at the top of each page with a sentence using the focused sight word. There are two more pages asking students to draw a picture of their own and write a sentence of their own using the sight word, and then the final page asks students to trace the sight word three times and then write it three times on their own on the blank line. After this, there are 13 additional pages with the exact pictures and words as the first 13 pages. The only difference is that on this second copy of the book, the sight word being focused on is dotted on each page for students to trace.

This emergent reader includes food clip art.

***When researching the words hotdog, corndog, and milkshake, I found all three words written as one and two words. I have included 2 pages for each of these three words, and you can pick and choose which you refer. Take out and discard the ones you do not wish to use. The double page with both options is not shown in the preview.

Title page: for (bubble letters to color)
Page 1: The hamburger is for you.
Page 2: The hotdog is for you.
Page 3: The hot dog is for you. (hot dog written as two words)
Page 4: The corndog is for you.
Page 5: The corn dog is for you. (corn dog written as two words)
Page 6: The drink is for you.
Page 7: The pizza is for you.
Page 8: The milkshake is for you.
Page 9: The milk shake is for you. (milk shake written as two words)
Page 10: The cotton candy is for you.
Page 11: The ice cream is for you.
Page 12: The popcorn is for you.
Page 13: The pretzel is for you.
Page 14: creative sentence writing
Page 15: tracing and writing sight word

The PREVIEW shows all pages included.

The pages of the book are not numbered giving the teacher flexibility of removing pages not desired when using in small guided reading groups for differentiation.

This 13 page book is designed so that you can copy the book, cut in half, staple, and then it is ready for use.

Students can benefit from this reader by tracking print, identifying spaces between words, identifying particular letters of the alphabet, recognizing sounds (beginning, middle, and ending) in each word, and reading sight words and grade level text. For extension activities, students could add another sentence to each page giving details about each picture shown. The black and white pictures allow students the opportunity to color the pictures. This reader is great for guided reading groups, homework, or literacy center activities.

***This is the 13th of 100 emergent readers for popular sight words (high frequency words) in the works. The readers will build on the words focused on in the previous readers as much as possible.

ELACCKRF1a. Follow words from left to right, top to bottom, and page-by-page.
ELACCKRF1d. Recognize and name all upper and lowercase letters of the alphabet.
ELACCKRF1b. Recognize that spoken words are represented in written language by specific sequences of letters.
