LANGUAGE ARTS - "Scooping Words with One Closed Syllable & One Vowel-Consonant-e Syllable"

by Reading on Strawberry Lane 

Grades 1-3




Scooping a word is the same as dividing the word into syllables. Syllables can be divided by saying them orally or by using a pencil and paper. If we orally divide a word into syllables, we usually clap the word out. For example, if we orally divided the syllables of dislike, we would clap out ‘dis’ and ‘like,’ and that would be two claps. If we divided the syllables on paper, we would place a slash between the ‘s’ and ‘l’ in the word ‘dis/like.’

So rather that placing a slash, there is another way to show the number of syllables in a word, and that is to scoop the syllables. This is how that would look: d i s I I k e. Not dividing the word with a slash avoids the look of an extra letter in the word, and it also avoids the idea of students thinking the word has only one syllable since there is just one slash. With the idea of scooping with the finger or with a pencil, students can feel and see the scoops which in turn matches the number of syllables.

This packet contains 64 task cards that allow students to practice scooping words with one closed syllable and one vowel-consonant-e syllable.

LANGUAGE ARTS - "10 r-Controlled Activities & Games"

by Reading on Strawberry Lane
Grades 1-3






This unit is a package of 10 activities and games that are designed to make it easy for students to learn to read r-controlled syllable type words. There are 6 syllable types, and r-controlled is one of the six types. These syllables are called –r-controlled because the –r is in control and the vowel is out of control when sounding out the word. Instead, of the vowels making their normal sounds, the –r decides for them what sound the vowel is going to make. Reading and spelling r-controlled words require visual memory and experience. These games will teach students a few consistent tips to remember when reading these kinds of words. There are five -r-controlled vowels--ar, -er, -ir, -or, -ur. These five vowel spellings make 4 different sounds. The packet includes 75 -r-controlled words cards and the following 10 games: 


1. Climb a Tree 
2. Grow a Centipede
3. Football Frenzy
4. Dominoes
5. Uno 
6. Clear the Board 
7. Snail Shell
8. Wild Animal Race
9. Checkers 
10. Circle Out

FLASH FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON-FIRST GRADE SPELLING WITHOUT THE LIST


CONSTRUCTING SPELLERS, WRITERS, AND READERS

Spelling Without a Weekly List to Memorize

FOR A LIMITED TIME TRY A WEEK FOR FREE

As you know, spelling instruction should not be a random list of words sent home at the beginning of the week to be memorized, and then forgotten after the test. Spelling should be taught in conjunction with the phonics skills that are being taught in the classroom. This resource is set up to teach a spelling rule/decoding skill weekly instead of sending home a random list of words. This may be uncomfortable for families because this has traditionally been an area that families can participate in their child’s education.  They still can. In each of these units, I have created activities that can be used as homework, literacy centers, or both. Using these activities for both helps close the gap for children who do not get homework support at home.

How a Reading Buddies program benefits kids. And not just the little ones!


The benefits of a Reading Buddies program by That Fun Reading Teacher

Reading Buddies.

Just typing the term brings a smile to my face.

When I was teaching kindergarten and first grade, my students always had Reading Buddies (older students from a partner class). The older buddies usually came weekly to read with my students and do a fun activity. 

Having a Reading Buddy program in my classroom is one of the things I missed when I was teaching Reading Recovery. When I became a special education teacher (providing literacy support to students up to the third grade), I set up buddy reading between some of my third grade students and snacking Kindergarten students. Half of them were interested when I first suggested bringing their 'most practiced' books to kindergarten, weekly, during recess. After the first month, click here to continue reading...
