After a decade of research and extensive classroom testing, the Vocabulary Magic™ team is excited to share this engaging and highly effective strategy!

Vocabulary Words included: chat, bend, coast, dusk, lean, grin, heap, leap, meet

4. Structured opportunities that help students to relate to new words and allow for discussion about prior knowledge/life experiences.
5. The availability of sentence stems and note-taking techniques that support speaking, writing, and summarizing in complete sentences.
6. A support system to encourage students to take academic risks and listen to different points of view.
7. The availability of timely feedback followed by an opportunity for self-correction.
8. Continued opportunities for students to engage with newly learned vocabulary in stories and game-like extension activities.

Picture Pages taps into the power of imagery, conversation, collaboration, and play to ensure all students (including English Language Learners) build-essential language skills. Intentionally teaching carefully selected high-utility words that appear frequently in the text across multiple content areas will boost student confidence, reading comprehension, and fluency. Each Picture Page introduces nine new words and is used with our researched “5-Step Process”. The new words are then presented in an intriguing, illustrated story, and accompanying activity pages (both printable and electronically on Google Slides). See the delight on your student’s faces as they master challenging vocabulary and watch their confidence soar!

This digital resource can be easily downloaded and printed for classroom use. The word search can include seasonal and May Day-related vocabulary such as "celebrate," "flowers," "basket" and "spring."

Halloween and fall fun with scrambled sentences! Scrambled sentences are a great way to practice capitalization, comprehension, fluency, content, sight words, content words and punctuation! And with this Halloween & fall themed sentence scramble sampler pack, it's also fun! Students read, cut & paste, write, and draw with each sentence.

This is a SAMPLER pack. It has FOUR themed pages, one each from October's theme - spiders, bats, pumpkins, and Halloween. It also has two blank pages that you can hand write your own sentences onto.

If you like the sampler, and want the full packs, just follow the links below under the bundle tab. They lead to both the October bundle, and the individual sets.

For each set, there are 10 pages with an eight word sentence, plus punctuation at the bottom of each page. You also get 5 blank templates that you can hand write your own sentences onto, if you want harder or easier sentences. You and your students read the words together, then cut them apart. Students then arrange them into sentence form and glue them into the boxes at the top. Students can then write the sentence on the handwriting line provided, then illustrate the sentence in the box provided. Finally, students can practice fluency by reading the sentences to each other or to the teacher.

These were made originally for seat work for a first grade friend, but I have a fellow kindergarten teacher who is using it in a small group with her high students. These would be good from K-2 in teacher led small groups, intervention, enrichment, or independent seat work, depending upon their reading / writing abilities.
