Combination ur (Bossy r): Read It! Say It! Find It!

Day 2 of Winter Break and I am working away with independent activities my firsties can use to practice reading and comprehending irregular spelled words.

1L2d.: Students will use conventional spelling for words with 
common spelling patterns and for frequently occurring irregular words. 

1RF3d.: Recognize and read grade-appropriate irregularly spelled words.

Combination ur (Bossy r): Read It! Say It! Find It!: BOOM interactive, self-checking, digital task cards. My firsties loved the ones I created before Christmas for them to practice various skills. These BOOM cards practice auditory listening skills that so many of my students are still struggling with. It is the discriminating of each phoneme that throws them. In these BOOM cards the students have to listen for the word and then chose from three choices for the correct word. It really helps them to practice listening to each sound. This compliments Saxon Phonics and Spelling 1st Grade Lesson 77.

Combination ir (Bossy r)

It's finally WINTER BREAK!!! Looking forward to restful, stress free, and frequent bathroom breaks without interruption. Of course my mind is already churning on NEW and IMPROVED ideas for Daily 5 and to put some pep into Saxon Phonics and Spelling. So, Day 1 of winter break I decided to look ahead at the upcoming Saxon Phonics and Spelling lessons to see if I could add some more independent practice for my students who are struggling with the spelling patterns. Here is what I came up with...

1st Grade Spelling & Words to Know {Journey’s 1st Grade Units 1-6 Supplemental Materials}

 I used the spelling words and words to know from Journey's 1st Grade Reading series and created pocket chart cards to use both on my focus board and in word work centers. 

My grammar wall was used in independent and teacher lead small groups. The foam core boards were color-coded to go along with the parts of speech. It was a quick reference for the students to use.


Spelling words and words to know were introduced at the beginning of the week and placed in the pocket chart on my focus board.

Pocket chart cards for each lesson used in Journey’s First Grade reading series. I used the spelling word cards as parts of speech for my grammar wall. At the end of the week, I transferred them to their respected parts of speech. Spelling cards are designated with N for noun, V for verb, LV for linking verb, PN pronoun, P preposition, AV adverb, and C conjunction.


Words to Know pocket chart cards from Unit 1 Lesson 1

File Contains the Following Supplemental Materials:
Labels: Words to Know and Spelling Words
Banner: Grammar (Print on card stock, cut out, and laminate each letter.)
Parts of Speech: Headers for the following parts of speech: adjectives, nouns, verbs, linking verbs, pronouns, adverbs, prepositions, and conjunctions. (2) sizes to print. (1st) 8.5x14 and (2nd) 8.5x11
Spelling Words: Units 1-6 plus (2) extra words for each lesson.
Words to Know: Units 1-6 plus a few extra words for each lesson.
Letter Tiles: Letter tiles and picture cards available for spelling words. Just print (2) copies of the spelling words. (1) copy for the focus board and (1) for word work.
