Kindergarten High-Frequency Word Flash Cards

High-Frequency Word Bingo Cards In small groups, I have students write our high-frequency words in the boxes in random spaces to create their own high-frequency word bingo card. We use these to practice reading our high-frequency words in a fun way!

Book Bag Letter with Reading Strategies I put this inside my reading logs and send leveled books in a bag home for students to practice reading to their families. Original source of text is unknown. If you know where this came from, please send me an email so that I may give credit.

Writing Homework Folder Sheet I put this sheet inside my writing folders so students can use it as a reference for correct formation of letters and the spelling of the high-frequency words.

Daily Math Journal Cover I'm excited to be starting daily math journals this year. I purchased the math journal prompts from elementary-teacher-resources.com. They are well worth buying and the price is minimal compared to the high quality of standards-aligned math ideas that increase in rigor throughout the kindergarten year!

Number Book I have students make this number book to practice writing the correct formation of the numbers. On each page, students draw the correct number of objects.

Student Calendars This is an idea that the kindergarten teachers at my school have used for a long time. I updated the format on my computer and added a special pattern to work on for each month. Towards the end of each month, students fill in the numbers on each calendar. I have them color the boxes to make the pattern we worked on that month (example- Sept. is AB: red, green, red, green, etc.) Students then draw a picture to go with the month at the top. I put these in their memory book portfolios. This is a great way to reinforce calendar skills, number recognition, number writing, and patterning!

Class Checklist Template (Word Format so that you can type in your students' names and save to your computer) I use checklists daily to keep track of many things in the classroom. I use these mostly for checking off when a project is completed for each child or when I need to keep track of who has turned something in.

Literacy Center Pocket Chart Cards (We call these our "Workboard Groups"):

Literacy Center Cards- set 1 (Color) (B&W)

Literacy Center Cards- set 2 (Color) (B&W)

Literacy Center Cards- set 3 (Color) (B&W)

Pocket Chart Numbers for Counting Days in School (1-180)

Seating Chart for Lakeshore Multi-Color Rug I laminate this and use small sticky notes with the students' names and keep it in a sheet protector. When seats are moved, simply move the sticky notes and place back into sheet protector.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For My Kindergarten Teacher Friends in my School District

Writing Homework Folder Cover This was shared at one of our G.U.S.D. Kindergarten meetings a few years back by another teacher. If you know which G.U.S.D. teacher originally created this, please send me an email so that I may give credit. It has been revised.

Writer's Notebook Cover (with G.U.S.D. Standards) Cut paper to 8 1/2 by 12 for this or use legal sized paper when printing. I run this on construction paper and staple or bind writing paper inside to make our writing journals.

Writing Practice Book Cover (with G.U.S.D. Standards) I use composition books (from Office Depot) with primary writing lines that I cut in half to make two books. I have students practice writing letters in them. I write one letter on each line to start with a black marker. For example, "A" on the first line, "a" on the next line and "Aa" on the last line of the page (3 lines all together).

Standards Star Stickers (with G.U.S.D. Kindergarten Standards) I use these for a special display I keep up all year. As students master each standard, they get the sticker near their name on our display (There are 5 stickers total per child). These will print on both Avery 5163 and 5963 labels.

Money Book (with G.U.S.D. Standards) I have students make this money book. I use hot glue to glue real coins (you could also use coin stickers or stamps) to the pages. Students write how much the coin is worth on each line.

 

This page is dedicated to the memory of my aunt, Beth Wammack. I wouldn't be a teacher today if it weren't for her! Beth battled a rare and life threatening disease called Scleroderma. To read more about Scleroderma, or to make a donation, visit the Scleroderma Foundation by clicking here.

This is a picture of my aunt, Beth Wammack (then, Beth Spivak) teaching in inner city Los Angeles in 1974.

I would like to give credit to DJ Inkers for a lot of the fonts and clip art I have used on many of my printables. I consider DJ Inkers a MUST HAVE for any teacher who enjoys making things look cute! Check out the website!

I have also used the Broderbund Printmaster Program to create many of the printables on this site.
