I own your Kindergarten Endless Bundle so I had to own your First Grade Endless Bundle too since I know how amazing your work is! I’m thrilled with this product and the many ways it is helping my students to become better, more confident readers! I so enjoy coming back for the new updates! It’s like a gift that keeps on giving…and the real gift is the success that my students are achieving!
You can view more about what your fellow teachers are saying below!
Below is a detailed list of what I explained in the sound bite above! You can see the two bundles are similar, but vary still! I didn’t mention it in the sound clip, but the units are completely separate of each other! The easy readers, packets, etc do not overlap! A lot of teachers have both bundles for even more differentiation options in the classroom!
In the sound bite above I also mentioned a master list for each of the bundles! These can be very visually overstimulating, but all of the information is there in one place HA! A lot of bundle owners as for these so I’ve included the images below, but also download links where you can store the PDF or print!
Download the Kindergarten master map HERE.
Phonics/letter names/sight words {3-4 minutes}
Book Study – -comprehension & fluency {5-6 minutes}
Guided Writing {5 minutes}
As the year progresses my guided reading lessons are divided as follows:
Book Study & Discussion {6-7 minutes}
Guided Writing {5 minutes}
At the start of each week’s tab I have placed in a sheet protector the lesson plans, printable books, and word sorts! Now when I teach this lesson I’ll just pull that sheet protector and have everything I need!
If you’re still craving for more information about my guided reading groups you can view this very informative post!
If you are wanting to see how the kindergarten and first grade step by step guided reading packets would work for your kiddos you can download free samples of both! You can view a free week of kindergarten guided reading HERE and first grade HERE.
If you own parts of the bundles but would like to “upgrade” to the mega bundle while it’s on sale I can help with store credit for any “duplicates” you will have purchased! You can simply email me at taradc87@hotmail.com and I will be more than willing to assist! If you have any guided reading questions please feel free to shoot me an email and I can be a sounding board for you!
Thank you so much for the information! Happy New Year and all the best in 2016!
You are beyond amazing!!! What a god send you are to so many teachers around the world. Love you big!!!
I can't get the free first grade packet to work. It says "Server Not Found".
Just fixed it sorry about that! And here is the link- https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/First-Grade-Step-by-Step-Guided-Reading-Plans-Week-13-1708811
Thank you for offering to credits! There are so many times when I purchase an item before the bundle to see if I even like it. I don't want to spend $68 – $98 for something I can't find a use for with my students. But if the item works and I like when I purchase the bundle I have paid double for one item. I wish more sellers would offer credits.
I will always do what is BEST for teachers! I appreciate you taking the time to tell me thank you!!! >>>kisses<<< 🙂 Tara
You mentioned word sorts above…are those included in your pack or how do you go about choosing words for those? I'm thinking that's something I need to start doing with my kiddos! Thanks!
I've gone back and read all of your guided reading posts this morning in an attempt to re-vamp my guided reading/writing for the rest of the year. Thanks for all the time and energy you spend creating and advising us teachers who hope to someday be as wonderful as you!
Hey there! The word sorts go along with the phonics skills for the week! So, if the kiddos are working on long vowels the word sorts will be long vowels pictures and/or words to sort! 🙂

I meant and still mean every word of that review! Your products are stellar Tara! I own so many of them and love them all! Thanks for all you do!
