You will receive a template that is for 8 words (4 on the front and 4 on the back).
I make a big stack of templates for students to put in their notebook and when we have finished with 8 words, they get a new form. Students have come back for years to tell me that many of their words were on their PSAT test.
This is a set of quotations for every letter of the alphabet. I have writtten them on a big tablet so that every Monday, I flip to the next one. We discuss it, use it in our writings, and they must memorize it and say it to me some time during the week for a grade. They hear them on tv, read them in books, and hear them in daily living.
You are welcome to use the forms I made. Hopefully, they will save you time. Save them to your computer. Change for your use. Print out.

I hand them thier personalized absent report with any worksheets, etc... when they return. I keep a big stack in the classroom, so they don't have to ask.
