CELEBRATE GOOD WORK...COME ON!!! Check out FDK5's amazing writing. They used all their learning from UFLI to write some words. They also remembered that all words must have at least one vowel.

Way to go class 5B. They took the Friday phonics rule and brainstormed lists of words that followed the phonics rule. GREAT WORK.

The grade 5 class listens every week to the announcements to hear the Phonics Fact. They challenge themselves to find as many words as they can that follow that rule. GREAT WORK grade 5's.

This is ONE way to use decodable readers! Break up those pages into individual sentences and play musical sentences!
🎶 Musical Sentences 🎶 Wrote the sentences from our @IMSEOG decodable story onto sentence strips as a pre-reading activity. Each time the music stops, students practice reading a new sentence. I couldn’t believe the progress in just a few rounds! @DonnakaSpencer @BCSDKidder

FDK 7 has been having fun playing our new favourite literacy game by adding letter wands to a game of musical books! Students move around the carpet to music & sit in front of a book when it stops. As they read they look for words that contain their letter. @HWDSB @ViolaD_HWDSB
