Only short vowels are included on the printable squares because in the Orton Gillingham approach, that is the vowel type used in this vowel intensive drill. Also, long vowels
This mat is great for small group instruction or as a resource for students to have at their seat! Rooted in the science of reading, it practices orthographic mapping for spelling words. I chose to print mine on bright paper and laminate. You can use seasonal erasers, counting discs, or whatever manipulative you choose!
This printable can be used as a "cheat sheet" to remember the cues for dictation when you are dictating words to for students to encode. For students who are receiving multisyllabic words, draw a long syllable line for each syllable, then focus on syllable at a time (and using these sound cues for each sound).

This activity is a 2-in-1 package. You have both Thanksgiving turkeys and Christmas trees. Both practice 0-10. Match the correct feathers to the turkeys and match the ornaments and star to the trees.

The story begins by explaining what a conversation is, then it explains how to greet, what can be talked about, appropriate body use (eye contact, shoulder tap, hands to self). The story ends with a page to brainstorm topics. Initiating conversation is important both in school and out of school. This can be generalized across any setting; in school, with family, in public spaces (playground, etc). All children need to know how to use their voice-- to ask questions or appropriately interact wit
This is as simple as it sounds! A number line of -10 through 10, -20 through 0, and 0 through 20. I printed the hundreds chart on the back for a flippable resource in the IND classroom. This resource could be used in the gen. ed. classroom as well!
This adapted book can be used year round. It's as easy as print, laminate, and a little velcro! Each page has the image lightly on it to assist learners with placing the object. There is a separate page with non-transparent copies of each object to cut and add velcro.
This printable poster offers writers of all ages how to appropriately space their work. I pair this printable with physical "spaghetti" and "meatballs" when I initially teach the concept. My spaghetti are yellow plastic cocktail toothpicks and my meatballs are miniature brown pom-poms (both from Amazon).

These printable posters show the 7 syllable types with a well-known candy. This can help anchor the syllable type in your student's brain, as well as show real life examples!
