Students need chances to actually use that skill while they read, and that’s where decodable text can be so helpful. They can practice the phonics pattern in real text, work with it as they read, and still build comprehension at the same time 👍 Comment DECODABLES and I’ll send you the link to the passages 🫶🏼 #firstgrade #iteachfirst #firstgradeteacher #firstyearteacher #teacherspayteachers
They know sh says /sh/… but then get to ship and s They know sh says /sh/… but then get to ship and suddenly they’re stuck 😅 That’s usually a sign they need more practice seeing the digraph in actual words... not just naming the sound.

They might be able to solve the addition fact or the subtraction fact, but still not really understand how the numbers are connected. That’s why I wanted this resource to have more than just worksheets. You can use it to teach the relationship first, give students lots of different ways to practice it, and then check to see if it’s actually clicking. There are options for facts within 10 and within 20, so you can use what makes the most sense for your students. And since it’s brand new, it’s 50% off for the first 48 hours! 🎉 Comment FACT FAMILIES and I'll message you the link 🫶🏼 #factfamilies #firstgrademath #firstgradeteacher #elementarymath #mathactivities #teacherspayteachers
