Fry's 3rd 100 Sight Words

After a restful few weeks with my family, it's time to start thinking school again (let's be honest, it's always on my mind anyway!).  Right now I'm working on the rest of Fry's Sight Word pages and I'm eventually going to make a set or two for the Dolch lists.  Fry's list alone is 1000 words.  1000 words, people!  That's a LOT of pages to create but I know they are helpful in teaching our little ones those basic, most frequently used words so I'm working feverishly to get them ready before the new school year begins.     

Click on the image to see the last set that I uploaded to my TPT store....it contains 100 pages!  You can download a FREE page on TPT! 

Now I'm off to make a few more.  Like, 700 more..............  :)

Word Work Printables for Dolch

    People often wonder what teachers do when school is cancelled because of snow.  We never run short on things to do so even though we're home, we're usually still working.  Grading papers, planning lessons, and if you are a primary teacher, you might even find yourself cutting out freshly laminated pieces to a center activity!  That being said, I experienced a first this week.  Our Christmas Break was extended because of snow.  And for the first time ever, I was home on a snow day with an empty school bag.  Not only that, but my house was clean so I didn't even have any housework to do!  
     So, after spending lots of quality time with my three year old (playing cars, making shapes with Playdoh, and watching a movie) I decided that I desperately needed to do something productive.  {I know, right?!  What's wrong with me?}  And that led to this............

     These word work pages have been a huge hit with the kids so for those of you working with the Dolch lists, these are for you!  Kids love them because they are learning words in a really fun, interactive way.  They get to color, stamp, cut-n-paste, trace, circle, and write each new word.  This set contains the Pre-Primer Dolch Words - if we have another snow day, maybe I'll work on the Primer list.  :)
     If you want to take them for a test drive, head on over to my TPT store to download the preview for a free sample page.  I hope you find them helpful!  Have fun teaching and learning!

Welcome to Primary Treasures!

     Welcome to Primary Treasures, the one stop shop for great activities and ideas for the primary classroom!  What’s the best way to celebrate a new blog?  With a new product, of course!  I’ve created an activity packet to celebrate the new year with your preschool or kindergarten students.  In this packet, you will receive the following activities: 

1. Party Time Countdown! Students will cut out the party hat squares and glue them on a sentence strip in countdown order, 10-1.

2. New Year Party Hat: Students can decorate their own party hat! Print the pattern onto cardstock or tagboard and allow your students to add glitter, pom poms, craft jewels… let their imaginations go wild!

3. Traceable Calendar: Students will trace the days and numbers on the January calendar for 2014. This is a great activity to reinforce counting, number recognition, number writing, and days of the week.

4. Differentiated Traceable Calendar: This calendar was designed for your more advanced students. They will trace the days and numbers on the January calendar for 2014 but they must also fill in the numbers that are missing.

5. Large 2014: Use this large 2014 to introduce your students to the new year. This blank 2014 can be used with any art medium (paint, glitter, pom poms, stickers, water color, etc.).
 
6. 2014: Bingo Dots or Magnet Style: This large 2014 includes bingo dot circles. Students learn how to write 2014 by following the motion of each number with the bingo dabber. Don’t have bingo dabbers? Place the paper on a cookie sheet and use circle magnets instead or let students glue large pom poms on the circles!

7. Let’s Celebrate! Mini Book: This 8 page, Level A mini book is about celebrating the new year. The story has a repeated text and picture support on each page. It’s perfect for early readers! (sight word focus: why, have, does, the)

8. My New Year’s Resolution Writing: Students can write or draw about their new year’s resolutions. This is a great opportunity to teach your students about setting goals!

9. FREE Yearly Updates! I’ll be updating this packet yearly! All you’ll have to do is download the new version from TPT every year for FREE!

Have fun learning!
