Make learning the first 300 Fry Words fun with these One Breath Boxes! They are the brainchild of Dustin over at teachertipster.com & I am so grateful for his blessing to share these. I introduced them in my classroom last year and they were a huge success. They are so simple to implement but have big results!
Here's how they work: the student takes one deep breath and tries to read all of the words in a box. Once a student masters a set, they move on to the next one - they move at their own pace.
This pack focuses on the first 300 Fry words with two pages for each set of 25 to ensure mastery rather than memorization of word order. There are also blank templates included so students can make their own personal One Breath pages based on the words they are working on.
Some options for classroom use:
~ Laminate for use in a center {good for reading buddies or word work station}
~ Use on SmartBoard with whole group or as a center
~ Keep in daily take home folder {great practice for those students who do not have support at home because they can do them on their own}
~ Guided Reading Warm Up or Morning Work {they start as soon as they get to the table - no wasted time!}
~ Have students create their own with the blank template included {may focus on: word wall words, word families, phonics patterns, new vocabulary, or theme words from a unit}
Also available:
One Breath Boxes:Fry Words 300-600
One Breath Boxes:Fry Words 600-1000
One Breath Boxes:Short Vowels
Thanks for stopping by & enjoy your day!

I can't wait to use these with my students. When I saw that these words weren't just the typical read them until you know them I was SO excited! My kids will love this challenge of reading in one breath and will still be practicing the words - we'll probably start on some of the later lists since it's later in the year and we've mastered most of these. Plus, you offer packs with higher level words. I find that most packs stop after the first 100 or so Fry words, which probably won't challenge my babies too much. I'm just so excited about this and the possibility of moving them even further with the harder words!

I am a reading specialist and was alarmed when my own Kindergarten went into the red on Aimsweb. Your game has been helpful for him. I printed it out in black and white and allowed him to color all the monsters to increase his motivation. Thanks so much for the wonderful product.

DK Coleman (TpT Seller)
Hi! I love the idea of coloring in the monsters - good thinking! I am so glad that these were helpful to your little one. Thank you so much for sharing your experience.

Hi I have 2 questions.
1) When you make the next set of One Breath Boxes can you email us so we can know it is available?
2) I was wondering if you could explain your system for using this product. For instance do you give the students a sticker each time they are able to do it or do you work with students independently. Thanks in advance for your response.

Hi Erica,
So sorry for the delay getting back to you. If you send me an email at donnakcoleman@gmail.com, I'll send you a note when I post the next set. You will also get a notification if you follow my store.
For your second question, I use the one breath boxes in an informal way in my room. The children take them home in their home reading folders and we use them during partner reading and guided reading groups. When they are able to complete a set, they let me know and we do a "quick check". I have extra copies of the sets available and they take the next one and add it to their folder. I do not formally track these but the children are very good at letting me know when they've mastered a set. This works well for me as I teach 2 classes each day (40 children) so it is not too time consuming but keeps them working at a challenging level. Hope this makes sense! Thanks so much for your interest.
Warm Regards,
Donna

Hi! I love the "one breath boxes" but was wondering if you could add Fry Words 301-500. I teach 2nd grade and I'd love to use this next year.
Thanks! :)
