40 Word Wall Cheers

Word Wall Cheers

One fun way to practice spelling is to cheer the words.  Here is a list of over 40 different cheers that you can do in your classroom to help you students practice their words in a quick fun way.  Be sure to have your students say the whole word, cheer each letter, then say the whole word again.  I've been using these cheers for years in my kindergarten and first grade classrooms.  I introduce a few each week.  Then, when the kids know them all, I add them as a center activity.  The kids never seem to get tired of them!  Enjoy!

Daily 5 Choice Boards

Daily 5 Choice Boards

My Best Seller!

Here is a resource that I use tho manage the 5 choices in Daily 5.

I use these Choice Boards to manage our Daily 5 routine in our second grade classroom. I print out the pieces and the boards on cardstock and laminate them. Then, I use Velcro to put the 5 choices on each board.

Each day as part of morning chores, my kiddos get a Choice Board and decide in what order they’d like to do their Daily 5. They leave them on their desks as we go through our literacy time. I can see where everyone has been, where they should be, and what they have left.

The boards last all year and I don’t have to spend any time helping the kids decide where they need to be.
