Reading Wands

Learning to can be such a tricky skill, but there are so many ways to make it more engaging.  When students begin to read sentences in books, it’s important that they “track” (point) to each word as they read.  This helps to slow them down and to focus on each word.

To help with this, I made some “reading wands” with my new Cricut!  The wands can be used in two ways: to track words, and for letter or word hunts!  To use for word hunts, the wands can be placed over words or letters (pictured above) as opposed to pointing to words.

They were SUPER easy to create.  I just used regular 8.5″ x 11″ cardstock that I had at home with the light grip mat.  

And the design is in Cricut Design Space for free!  Click here to access the reading wands.  

Enjoy!  🙂

Our fave handwriting practice pages to go with our Our fave handwriting practice pages to go with our letter formation GIFs. ⁣
⁣
We first begin the year with uppercase practice pages, then lowercase, then a mix of both. ⁣
⁣
Even though it’s hard to keep it in the schedule, I really try to work on handwriting for 10 minutes every day in kindergarten. ⁣
⁣
We begin on the rug “air tracing” and taking turns practicing the letter formation on our ViewBoard, then we transition to our tables for independent practice. ⁣
⁣
I also keep the GIF of the letter we’re working on on our ViewBoard while we’re working for easy reference and reinforcement. ⁣
