Inventive way of doing sight words. Where did you get the graphics for the sign language ?
February 2, 2013
Allison Bouffard (TpT Seller)
Actually, it is a font program installed on my computer. It makes spelling words really easy :).

I'm teaching literacy to ESL adult learners (people who never learned to read in any language in their native countries). I like these materials because the graphics are attractive, yet not juvenile. Like many teachers, I don't have access to color copies, but the graphics look very good when copied in black and white. I copied all the Dolch words onto cardstock, and they're very useful. The sorting graphic organizer should be larger, however. The students in my class -- and children who are learning to read -- need more space to write.

Did you try again? I haven't had any other problems with it. Also, be sure you have a smart board and/or smart notebook software to open it. Please do not rate it until you are able to access it and see the entire thing. Thanks! :)

This is a great way for students to get practice with letters using the environmental print at home and an opportunity for parents to work with their child and know what skills he/she needs to work on.

This has been great for my ELL learners, as well. Thanks!

Exactly what I needed. I use these in word work so students are not just spelling the words aloud or writing them but also signing how to spell them. Thanks so much!

This is a great resource! I am using this to help my ESL students recognize sight words, practice handwriting and gain a sense of sentence structure. Since I am using the product to help my students with their handwriting, I wish the capital letters were within the lines, instead of crossing over the top line.
July 22, 2012
Allison Bouffard (TpT Seller)
Thanks for the response. I am glad that you are finding it useful. The lines are from a program called handwriting without tears. The program only uses the 2 lines (that's why the capital letters cross over that top line). :)

I used this with my kindergarten class after we had finished the workbook. They LOVED them, and the sentences really did help them with their sight words. I even had one kid come up and say "These words are all wall words!"

Cute idea! Not sure if I will be able to use it for my pre-k kiddos but I love using the idea for K and to assess their knowledge of the shapes!

Very useful for assessment. I use two at the same time; one for the student to take home, and one for me to keep at school.

We use the alphabet hand signs as a quick way for students to indicate their answer choices. It lets me see who chose what just by scanning the room. Even after more than 100 days of school some children still ask how to make the letters! I am going to print this for them to keep at their desk.

Hi, I am a student doing a paper on the benefits of using American sign language in the general classroom. I was wondering if I compiled some questions would be willing to answer a few about how ASL has helped you?

Thanks Allison! I do have one at school and I saved the file to a flashdrive. I don't on my laptop, alas, how silly of me! Thanks so much!

Hi Allison,
I can't open the file for Non-Fiction Templates for Young Writers. What did you create it in?
Thanks,
Paige

hi Paige. Thanks for asking a question. Do you have a smartboard at school or the smartnotebook software installed on your computer or laptop? It was created with this program so most likely will only work with it. If not, you might be able to download a free trial of the software.http://smarttech.com/downloads
If you do have it, try saving the file first, then open the software, and then try opening the file. Hope that helps. :)

Yikes, I didn't read that part about needing the Smartboard! Sorry about that. I am getting a Smartboard installed in my classroom this week, YEA!!!! Can't wait to try this out.
November 12, 2012
Allison Bouffard (TpT Seller)
You will love it!!!! I was a little afraid at first but use it every day for so many things now. Google lessons with smartboards and you will find tons of useful stuff! Good luck!

tu55ck re: Math Story Problems for Kindergarten
Hi,
I am anxious to use this program but it will not open on my computer. Any suggestions? I have the latest Adobe (had to upgrade for another purchase I made) so I don't think that is the problem. ?????

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY
Undergraduate-Providence College (BA in Special and Elementary Ed and Psych) Graduate-Fairfield University (MA in Curriculum and Instruction)
ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
I also teach baby sign language workshops to parents and caregivers.Baby Sign Language teaches simple gestures or signs, (American Sign Language) to hearing babies before they can speak).It helps bridge the gap of communication, strengthens bonds between babies and adults and enhances their language and vocabulary development. Come and find out more at my website www.toocutesigning.com I also began using ASL in my K and 1st grade classrooms the past few years. I have found it helpful with management, retention of sight words, manners, and keeping all students actively engaged and learning! It is a great way to differentiate instruction and to include many modalities while teaching/learning.
