I've got a few more today!

The first is a download for some Halloween Treat Bag Toppers.  Instructions are included!  Click on the picture to download this.

Next, I have a quick sheet if you need a little time filler or activity for Halloween.  This can be used alone or as a pre-writing activity.  Students will fill in their responses and then draw their costume on the figure.  Click on the picture to download.




Hope you can use them!

Super EASY Literacy Centers! Seasonal, Holiday, and Special Days - Read It, Build It, Write It Work Mats.

Saturday, October 10, 2015 No comments
On Friday afternoons (or even worse, Monday mornings), are you scrambling for a quick Word Work/Literacy Center to put out for the week?  If you want a highly engaging, but SUPER EASY to implement center activity, you need to check this out!




There are 24 Work Mats Included:




If you already own one of my Read It, Build It, Write It kits you can use the cards from that kit with the work mats in this kit.  This kit only contains work mats, no cards. 

 BUT....I've also just posted an EDITABLE Word Card Template kit!!!!

You can make you OWN word cards to go with the mats!  This is GREAT for making cards for your weekly spelling lists, custom sight word lists, CVC or CVCe words, word families, blends, digraphs, phonics patterns, and MORE.



With the editable template you can make your cards ahead of time, organize them and they are ready to go when you need to pull out a quick literacy/word work center.  They are also super for RTI/Intervention time!
