Hey y’all! I am poppin’ back in to tell you that I am joining forces with my favorite ladies over at Blog Hoppin’. The crew and I are bringing you a little Christmas in July goodness. Holy holly berries, folks . . . you don’t want to miss this one 🙂
Here’s the plan . . . every couple of days I will put a handful of themed resources on sale. I will blog about them as well as offer up a freebie associated with one of the packets so you can get a feel for what I’ve got on the table. Maybe you aren’t quite ready to buy yet and that’s OKAY {the s-word is still VERY difficult to utter in mid-July}. Therefore, if just my little freebie is the only thing that floats your boat right now, you can always wish list other items for later sales. Just a thought . . . it’s late so maybe I’m just “running the keys” at this point 🙂
Today and tomorrow you can snag anything short vowel related from my shop. I figured these collections would provide a great start for first grade teachers (I use these every year with my new crew). These packets also slide nicely into K classrooms a little later in the year. On that note, here they are . . . broken down for you a bit . . .
All About Packets
Each packet has more than 70 pages of short vowel goodness – specific to that letter you are targeting. We’re talking everything from center and whole group games to hands on activities and independent work. I have found that the kids really seem to grasp the vowels once we transition our way through these. Oh, and each one comes with a related short vowel song from Ron Brown’s Intelli-Tunes. Yup, the MP3s are included!
STORY SONGS
This packet was built with the little guys in mind. I see it working beautifully in Kinder 🙂 I teamed up with my pop {Ron Brown’s Intelli-Tunes} to create a special short vowel collection centered around a song. It not only includes an MP3 of his 5 Short Vowels song, but also oodles of related activities that help further your kiddos’ phonics studies.
SHORT VOWEL FREEBIE
This fun freebie was featured in the newsletter last fall, but I had to make sure that y’all grabbed it. Stick ‘Em Up is a killer cool whole class team game that will not only further your babes’ short i word family understanding, but it will also foster teamwork as well. Oh . . . and it’s editable. Therefore, you can loop in any word family you wish to target 🙂
Alright, that’s it from me tonight. It’s 11:20 here and this girl’s eyes are getting heavy. Thanks for taking the time to pop in. I will be back in a few days with a new set of goods to showcase and a freebie or two {I promise brand new ones next time}.
