As students are learning the 41 - 3rd grade sight words in this product, they will be provided with each word, an example of the word used in a sentence, and the opportunity to make up a sentence themselves using the word. I find that with my students who are Deaf/hard of hearing/ELL, when they make up sentences using each newly learned sight word, it helps them to remember how to spell the word, the meaning, and how it is used. My students love booklets of any kind that they can refer back to. Once they have come up with their sentences, they can include pictures that they print and cut out, draw pictures freehand, or find pictures in a magazine that they can add to each page of the 3rd grade sight word booklet that matches each sentence they come up with. This gives students the opportunity to connect what they are learning about in the classroom with their own personal interests. This booklet is perfect for students that are on grade level as well as students who require instructional information to be adapted.

Vocabulary Worksheets

Note to Teachers

This set of worksheets consists of 111 pages of Fill in the Blanks exercises. Each page has at least ten words or phrases for students to fill in the blanks in the given sentences.

Learning new vocabulary is an important part of language development. Instead of simply memorizing vocabulary lists, it is beneficial to learn new vocabulary words in some kind of meaningful context.

Fill in the Blanks exercises are effective at helping students develop their language skills in numerous ways. Each vocabulary word must be placed in the blank based on meaning of the sentence. This task challenges students to first understand the meaning of the sentence and then select the appropriate word. It is an effective task for developing cognitive skills as well as general language skills.

The vocabulary words in these exercise pages were selected from various stories that we have studied. These words are found quite commonly in written texts so it is useful for students to acquire these vocabulary words.

If students are unfamiliar with some of these words, then students are encouraged to use a dictionary or work together in small groups.

I have found that students enjoy these types of activities and that students can develop various useful skills related to language development.

Levels: There are four sets of vocabulary builder worksheets divided into four levels. The approximate range of grades for each level is listed below.

Vocabulary Worksheets:

Vocabulary Builder Level 1: Grades 1-4

Vocabulary Builder Level 2: Grades 3-6

Vocabulary Builder Level 3: Grades 5-8

30 Digital Borders/Frames on Lined Paper for Writing Prompts

Writing a story can be so overwhelming! I have come with this writing pack that is intended to help your students organize their ideas before writing their first draft. This step-by-step activity groups every aspect of story writing such as: genre, setting, characters, details, etc. It also helps the students with their descriptive writing by asking them targeted questions. This is an excellent tool for beginner writers, struggling writers, or English Language learners.

Use the "Writing Buddy" resource as a complement resource to help your students become more independent when writing a short story.

You can use these resources for several days, giving students a chance to think through while writing their first draft.
