CURRENTLY MARCH

It is March...
and you know what that means....

HOLLA like a Leprechaun!!!

NOPE CURRENTLY TIME!!!!


and this Currently is brought to you by....




click on the button below to head on over to her blog...


I love how cute Kate's blog is...
you really need to head on over there...
she is a 2nd grade teacher from San Diego...

her newest creation is super cutesy...



There are 6 pages of activities in each book, two sorts (one simple, one advanced), and some other word finding/organizing activities.  Kate made this to be a streamlined process for the entire year of Word Study.  They are great for the whole class and for interventions later in the year.  These are super duper easy to prep (which I love!!) and they help keep the sound/spelling patterns organized for the year.  This product includes ten mini-workbooks. There are pictures to anchor the spelling patterns. The patterns are long vowels, diphthongs (laugh every time I say this word), and r-controlled vowels.


These are so cool because this is a really tough skill, but this makes it super fun! It can be used as a center, but gets the kids up and moving.  Kate is a genius and scatters the bags all around the room and lets the kiddos wander and work. It's really engaging and a great intro to teaching expository writing.  Non-Fiction and Fiction available.... Yeah!

if you are interested in any of those...
