Phonics crafts that are actually phonics practice? Phonics crafts that are actually phonics practice? Yes, please! ✂️ These digraph crafts are more than just something cute to hang on the wall! Students read the words, identify the digraphs, and sort and glue the words onto their crafts. So they’re getting plenty of phonics practice along the way! And the best part? I have these crafts for blends, magic e, vowel teams, and more! Comment CRAFTS and I’ll send you the link! 💜
Independent reading lasting about 3 minutes? Been Independent reading lasting about 3 minutes? Been there 😅 When I taught reading stamina, I always started small. A goal they could actually reach, lots of talking about what good reading habits look like, and a few ideas for what to do when they start losing focus. It takes time, but it does get better! And before you know it, those few minutes start turning into much longer stretches of focused reading 🤩 Save this for your independent reading time or comment STAMINA and I’ll send you the link to these activities.

You don’t need to come up with a completely different lesson every day 😅 I love the idea of giving students multiple opportunities to practice the same skill in different ways. With this routine, students get to practice through a craft, worksheet, phonics crown, word search, and decodable passage. And the best part? You can use the same routine for so many different phonics skills! Want to try it? I have a FREE sample using the SH digraph. Comment PHONICS and I’ll send it to you 💛 #iteachfirst #iteachkinder #firstyearteacher
