Enough words, activities, and worksheets for the entire school year!

This product is great for students who have recently mastered letter identification. These students are ready to begin reading and spelling, but for many students in special ed, typical sight words (I, but, the) are not the place to start. Instead, I like to start with functional words that have more meaning and make reading more motivating and fun for my students.

The activities and assessments included are good for beginning writers, although accommodations can easily be made to most activities for non-writers. Students do not need to be verbal to utilize this product.

This product can be used to work on reading, spelling, or both!. This product can be used with the pre-made word lists, your own word lists, or a combination of both!

This product includes:
*30 Weekly word lists for student use
