word work

One of the word work center choices is Making Words. Although this particular week, we have cute snowmen, I told the kids that they won't always be this cute! I tell the students where I got them. So now Mrs. Perry is part of our class too :) You can get your very own set here.

I have them use their Daily 5 notebooks to make their own lists. As much as I love love love the recording sheet that changes each week, there is a ton of prep and potential waste non-use of the papers.
I set out the letters and if I have a recording sheet I hang it near the letters in a sheet protector.
