Sight Word Booklet

 I finally got around to making a Sight Word/Word Family Booklet. The original idea came from Sue from The Very Busy Kindergarten. Click on the link to see her great booklet, she also does an excellent job explaining how to make them.  

I finally got around to making one (yep..Sue doesn't lie when she says it's A LOT of work, but I think it's worth it). I changed it a bit, in that I used regular index cards and a binding machine to save $ (instead of buying a spiral index pack which is expensive). I had 3 of my students cut and glue the cards in their notebooks to see how it would go, but..it didn't work out too well, so Ill be making them. Not happy about it, but like I said: I think it will be great for the kids. 

The sight words are based on McGraw-Hill Treasures Kindergarten Sight Words and I added a few from the top 25 Fry and Dolch Word List, along with easy to read sentences. Students will trace the word, put dots under each word, and highlight the sight word in the sentence. The eyeballs in the corner reminds them they must know the word  by sight.  On the opposite end of the booklet, is where the word families will be, It's exactly like Sue's. 

If you would like a copy of the Sight Word cards for the booklet, let me know and Ill be happy to send it to you. I plan on making another booklet for students who are ready for Booklet 2. 

High Frequency Word Cards

If you are working with CA Treasure then you know that they have these gigantic High Frequency Word Cards that takes up space. It's basically a large white card with a little word in the middle, so I retyped it so it can fit inside a pocket chart (without falling out), make it into printable rings for each student, and place it on the word wall. The cards with stars are the words directly from Treasure Kindergarten. I plan on adding color words and more HFW later. If you want me to add more words, let me know.

Kinder Treasures High Frequency Words

Kindergarten High Frequency Words (each color corresponds what the kiddies need to know by the end of the assessment unit). I added more words at the end. The format was taken from Fran Kramer's HW folder idea. I simply adapted it for the Treasure Unit.
