Alphabet Link Up

Happy Saturday friends! Since the fabulous Abby is having her Alpha-BOOM week, we thought we'd link up and share a new idea for introducing the alphabet to your kiddos! Since Erin is now going to be teaching kindergarten, this will be the first thing she does in her new classroom. We've spent the last few weeks creating our biggest product yet, our new ABC Bootcamp pack! It's 200 pages full of activities and resources to help you introduce the letters to your students, in the first 26 days of school.
Just click the pics below or go {HERE} to check it out!

Here's a little preview of what's inside!
We've also added a little freebie of a few items that can be found in our ABC Bootcamp pack.
If you'd like to check out our Bootcamp freebie, stop by {HERE} to download!


We are currently LOVING Show and Tell Aprons!  If you're not sure what they are just look on Pinterest or Google.  Since we'll be using them in our classrooms next year, we're creating card sets that can easily fit the aprons.  If you don't have an apron, these can easily work with pocket charts too, or can be used at a table for a center activity! 

Here's our first set!
 You can check out our Alphabet Show and Tell Apron Cards {HERE}
And here's our numbers 1-20 set!  You can go {HERE} to check it out!



Another new item added to our store is our
 Read the Rainbow Sight Word Pack.  
This is a unit to help teach and master the first 220 sight words based on the Dolch Word List. Each list has a color, and as the students master reading their list, they move through the colors of the rainbow. This is set up so that you can easily make this work for you!  We created it in March, and used it toward the end of last school year.  
Our kids just loved it! 
Look for a post in September about how we incorporate this into our reading instruction.

Just click the title or picture below to check it out!

Here's a freebie to use with our Rainbow Sight Words pack.  This sheet could be used for kiddos to track the list that they are currently on.  You could use this sheet several ways.  One idea would be to  place a sticker on the number of the corresponding list that they've mastered.
Read the Rainbow Freebie can be found {HERE}!

And since we're on the topic of Dolch words, below is a preview of some new Dolch sight word worksheet sets that we've recently added to our store.  These worksheets incorporate the first 220 Dolch sight words.  We use these during our morning literacy centers and our kiddos an easily complete them independently.
You can find these {HERE}
You can also click below for separate links:
Two more sets are in the works and we'll be adding them to our store soon!  

We're updating our numbers, colors, and shapes posters in our classrooms so we added our new designs to our store!  They are full size, but can easily be printed 2 or even 4 to a sheet if you want to make them into flash cards.  On a mac when you select print, just go to layout and change how many pages per sheet.
 Numbers, Colors, and Shapes Poster Pack can be found {HERE}
Here's a little preview of what's inside!


We've also created a few worksheets for 
number, shape, and color recognition.
