At the start of the year we do A LOT of assessing and letter names and/or letter sounds is a big part of that! I created this tracker and used it each and every year! The tracker is set up in ABC order so that you can visually see which letters the students haven’t mastered yet. When assessing the students you will have them read down the columns (a, d, g, j, m, etc). I like to check off the letters that the students are able to state. Then, I graph the overall total each assessment! I then use a different color of pen each time so I can see growth over time!

**Click HERE to grab this letter graph!**

How about an ABC chart?! You can also print them four to a page (using the instructions the top of this post) so that they are MINI abc charts!

***Click HERE to download the ABC chart!***

What is more fun than DOUGH and REAL LIFE pictures?! I’m obsessed with these real life photo dough mats! You can also print the dough mats 2 or 4 to a page using the print tips at the top of the post!

While we are talking about real life photos—how about this ABC tracing book? You can choose between two styles within the freebies!

You can also print the pages 4 to page (instructions at the top of the post) just like Michelle did!

The following poster has always been a part of my KinderLiteracy program! However, Holly mentioned this awesome strategy so I decided to release just this poster as a freebie!

“After we read a book in Guided Reading, we use the retell poster to retell the story. I pile the cubes on each circle to match the color. As they retell each piece of the story, we move a cube to line it back up in order. They know if a cube is still there, they still have something to tell me this has helped with their retell skills greatly.”

***Click HERE to download the poster.***

Up next is a fun activity I like to call PSF Stretchers! These are great as a guided reading warm up! The students will state the picture name, stretch the three sounds and then blend  the word back together!

***Click HERE to download the PSF Stretchers!***

Keeping with phoneme segmentation and sounds is this awesome poster and matching set of cards! I like to use the green for beginning sounds, yellow for middle sounds and red for final sounds! You can ask something like, “What is the green sound in the word cat?” You can also use the cards for phoneme segmentation as well!

Word Blenders FREEBIE! Grab it here 👉 http://bit.ly/2NMrRn9

A lot of times I get questions like, “How do you get your kiddos into reading groups so early in the year— they don’t even know all of their letters yet?” Well, I am a strong believer that students can “read” with NO letter recognition! If students can identify environmental print they they are already “reading”. I love these I can read sentence strips because they allow students the ability to READ early on and feel successful!

***Click HERE to download the sentence strips!***

I have additional strips HERE and HERE!

Do you have a vertical number line on display in your classroom? My students showed such an improvement in their number sense of more and less using the vertical number line! It was also a powerful visual for how many more/fewer! What’s crazy is it makes sense! For young children when we say the number goes “up” what does that mean… when they see it on a traditional number line it looks like it’s going over and not up!
