Rainy Day Songs!



My class this year has struggled learning the name and sounds of the vowels!  I asked Kim to help me out and she whipped up a couple of great songs to help reinforce the vowel sounds....She made the songs to go with our letter Uu week and umbrella day!  Well....little did I know that it would work so well!  As you know, my niece is in my class and my sister was asking her about the sounds of the letters and Sedley bursts into song!  I was so excited I just had to share the songs with you....You can find our complete unit HERE! (including 2 more songs) But I always love a freebie so feel free to copy and use this wonderful song!  Thank you to my talented and amazing teacher in crime KIM!!

Big books


Each week in class we work on a letter. I know there is a lot of different thoughts concerning this but I have found it to be very successful in my classroom. We start with the vowels and at the end of five weeks we review the vowels. Each week we do a craftivity to go with the particular vowel we are working on. I glue the projects on long paper and put together a big book for each student. On review week each student will read their book to the class. A is for:... 
Here are a couple of the pages. I love how they turn out!


I would love to hear how done of you feel about a vowel a week. 
Have a great weekend!
