I use these sheets each week to supplement my phonics whole group instruction. These sheets help to keep students engaged in the lesson, and also allows each student to review and practice the new skills on their own. Students place these sheets in their Word Study notebooks, and use them for reference throughout the week, and during writing. Additionally, these are great for the unit review week, as students can flip back to these pages to review before the big test.

This fitness journal is designed to last students all year long. Motivate your students to get fit as they track their progress on 4 basic fitness goals: push ups, pull ups, sit ups and timed mile.

Using context clues to identify unknown words is a critical skill. As students are assessed on state assessments, they will undoubtedly discover words that they do not know. On these pages, I have identified words which have meanings strongly indicated in the main selection. The students will complete the chart, by writing the context clues they find, and then will select the correct definition of the word from the choices.

For each of the weekly selections, students have a bookmark to use to write their text codes as they read. The text codes are for important details, questions, and connections. At the bottom of each bookmark, students will answer the Question of the Week.

For each weekly story, the students will have a bookmark to write their questions, connections and important details from the text. Students will then answer the question of the week at the bottom of the bookmark. Scott Pearson Reading Street, 2013

This file includes a "Look, Say, Cover, Write" page for each of the 5 weeks in Unit 2. What is "Look, Say, Cover, Write?" Students first LOOK at the spelling word, then SAY it. Students will fold the page on the left side (guided fold line on document so this step is easy) to COVER the word, then WRITE the word from memory. Great spelling practice. Use it in class, or send it for homework.

For each weekly comprehension skill, I have created an anchor chart to use during whole group instruction, and an accompanying graphic organizer. The anchor chart and graphic organizers look very similar so that students have a strong model for success.

Scott Foresman Reading Street 2013 Common Core Edition Weekly spelling word list and word cards with chevron borders. Use for displays or to supplement student centers.

Using context clues to identify unknown words is a critical skill. As students are assessed on state assessments, they will undoubtedly discover words that they do not know. On these pages, I have identified words which have meanings strongly indicated in the main selection. The students will complete the chart, by writing the context clues they find, and their guess at what the word means by using the clues. Then, they will use a source to look up the actual definition of the word.

For each week, students are given practice with the weekly Vocabulary Skill. Each activity is closely tied with a text from their weekly stories (sometimes the main selection, sometimes the paired vocabulary selection.)

For each weekly story, students receive a bookmark. As students are reading independently, they are to take notes on what they are reading. Using 3 basic codes, students will organize their notes as they read by first writing their code before their thought. The 3 basic codes: ? I have a question * Important Detail C Connection Also, at the bottom of the bookmark, students will answer the weekly guiding question for the text.
