I think
I bought your mini dictionary. How do I found the additional free download with added suggestions for its use?
Thanks!

Thanks for purchasing my Dolch Mini Dictionary. You are the first buyer for this product as is it new, and I hadn't had time to write and post the Suggestions for Use at the time I posted it. However, I have now posted that document and it is free. So you can "go and get it!" now.
Thanks again and Have the Best Day Ever!

I just listed a new type of Sight Word PowerPoint for Kindergarten and First Grade. It is listed under First 50 Sight Words PowerPoint. It includes the words in isolation and within the context of sentences with picture support. I wondered if you might consider taking a look at the free 4 slide preview to see if it might be something you could use. Thanks! Anne Gardner
Is it possible to get a version that just uses plain lines instead of dotted paper?
Best regards, Sharron
I have been teaching for over forty years. My experience as a teacher includes elementary school, junior high, ESL in China and Taiwan to all ages (including two-year-olds!)ESL to Adults and Adult Literacy. I have also filled the posts of Modern Languages Coordinator for seven years, an administrator, curriculum writing, computer and curriculum resource teacher. I have also done designing and preparing teaching materials od all kinds, and was a product presenter and teacher trainer for Pearson Ed in Asia. I have a varied background of experience as you can see. While in China, I was involved in writing curriculum, teacher training and preparing teaching materials for use with the SmartBoard. As you might imagine, I have learned "what works", both through research and "procedural knowledge". My personal goal for student success is this: "100% of the students 100% engaged, 100% of the time". That is my responsibility.
I believe there is a time for all styles of teaching. I mostly favor a "hands on" approach, especially for young children, but I combine all styles as needed. I am especially interested in Gardner's "Multiple Intelligences" theory of learning and try to incorporate that notion whenever I am planning lessons, materials and training sessions. My watchword is, "no one likes to be bored!" and my goal is "100% of students 100% engaged, 100% of the time." Learning should be fun, but well-planned and implemented. I am passionate about teaching through literature. I believe that most of life's important lessons can be learned this way. Yes...even for math and science.
I have co-authored two supplementary French readers to accompany the EFSL (French as a second language) series, Aventures. (Copp-Clark Longman)
I have a Bachelor of Education, majoring in Language Arts and Library and a Master of Education in Curriculum Studies from the University of Victoria, Victoria, BC, Canada.
