These are very visual posters to help kids remember which letters face which direction!
I have the kids chant: bat, ball, donut, door
and pineapple, peach, queen, quilt
These are great to stick on their desks, in their reading/writing folders, or to send home to decorate their walls!
These numbers are 1-30 with 2 blanks (I used marker felt font if you need to add more). They have a number of uses, including calendars, labeling bins for classroom management, number lines, or anything you can think of!

I found that many early readers have words that don’t follow the progression patterns of Orton Gillingham-based programs, which make it difficult for struggling readers to practice and become fluent with certain syllable types before progre
These months are sized to fit on a full page. If you would like to make them smaller, you can just change your print settings to print 2 or more pages per page. These can be used in your calendar area, on your word wall, or as part of a birthday display.
Included in this file are numbers 1-31. They are each on a separate full size page so that they can be printed in a variety of sizes. If you'd like to make them smaller, just print two or more pages per page in your printer set up.
These coordinate with my Months of the Year file. You can use these for management number systems, calendars, or birthday displays.
Here's a color-coded table to help your visual learners memorize the multiplication facts, check their facts when playing math games, or hang up at home for quick reference.
