Making Words Makes Better Readers and Writers
If you know me very well, or have looked at many of my items in my shops, you know that I am a big advocate of making words.
Working with word families is an effective way to get kids reading and help them learn to decode longer words. Learning to read should be a hands-on experience.

| Kids love using rubber stamps to make words too! |

Kids make lots of words with magnets and my 'Let's Make Words' book. I just enlarge the pages on the copy machine to make them larger. I have also used smaller cookie sheets with the smaller pages.

| Using write-on/wipe-off pouches from Lakeshore Learning, children are able to make words using dry erase markers. You know how they love markers! |

Click the pic to get your copy of 'Let's Make Words!' Available for short vowels, long vowels, special vowels, and in a value pack of all 3 books! Get your kids making words like crazy! I'd love to hear how your kids make words in your room! Have a Fabulous Friday!  |
