Everyone has a word wall in their room with sight words and other seasonal vocabulary words. Why not write a simple sentence using a sentence strip and place it under the letter.
Here is how mine looks:
P (Letter)
Put, people, play (Words)
I can play______. (Simple Sentence)
During writing time in the Daily Five, students choose a letter, write the sentence for that letter, and illustrate their sentence. I started this week as we are almost done with sight words and letters. Make the sentences simple so everyone should be able to read and write them at this time of the year. Students are practicing their handwriting skills, as well as responding to a sentence and using words and illustrations appropriately.
