FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON - “Freebie NO-PREP Short A Phonics Word Family Worksheet Practice Printable (at)”

by Little Me Reading
Pre-Kindergarten - 1st Grade


About this resource:

Learning phonics is fun and rewarding! 

This packet includes 10 worksheet activities and flashcards. 

There is NO PREP needed for the worksheet activities. 

The 10 worksheet activities are as follows:

1. Highlight the words Students will highlight all the words that have the specified sound. This will help them develop phonemic awareness in written words.

2. Color the pictures Students will identify all the words that have the specified sound and color the pictures of those words. This will help them develop phonemic awareness in spoken words.

3. Mystery pictures Students will color the target vocabulary according to the color code. This will help them improve their focus and attention span, as well as help them practice following instructions.

4. Matching fun Students will match each picture with the correct word. This will help them build an association between pictures and words.

5. Find the hidden words Students will sound out each grapheme and color the correct ones to form a specified word. This will help them strengthen their blending skills and develop their spelling skills.

6.  Find the missing grapheme Students will fill in the missing grapheme, trace the word and write the word. This will help them strengthen grapheme-phoneme correspondences and practice handwriting.

7. I can spell Students will look at the pictures, spell the words in the shape boxes and write them again. This will help them picture the shape of the word, build phonological awareness and acquire handwriting and spelling skills.

8. Find and fill in the words Students will look at the pictures, identify the words, find them in the word search and write them under the pictures. This will help them increase their concentration and practice spelling.

9. Complete the sentences Students will complete the sentences by filling in the missing word. This will help them practice reading simple sentences and familiarize them with basic sentence writing.

10. I can read and write Students will read and fill in the words to complete a short passage with picture clues, as well as answering some comprehension questions. This will help support their foundational reading, comprehension, and logic skills.

Feel free to print out the flashcards and play some flashcard games!

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON - “FREE Writing Organizers for Secondary Students”

by Natasha L's Corner
9th - 12th Grade


This freebie is my collection of organizers to guide high-school writers through their process. Here's what's included:

  • a five-paragraph essay planner, detailing what should go in each paragraph
  • a SOAP organizer, where students can plan the Subject, Objective, Audience, and Purpose for their writing. (I've kept it basic to allow teachers and students to discuss workable strategies for their own work.)
  • a writing checklist to review the four C's of effective writing: clear, concise, correct, and conversational.
  • a circle map for brainstorming

If these organizers are useful for you, please let me know. Depending on the response, I may expand the set into a paid product.

This set is not editable. Please don't ask. If you need something tweaked, please feel free to leave a message in my Q&A area here on TPT.

FREE SCIENCE LESSON - “Free! Set of 4 Baby Animals Accordion Books (Informational Text)”

by Growing Smart Readers
Kindergarten - 2nd Grade


This resource contains nonfiction or informational text (condensed) on 4 different baby animals. These mini books are a great way to encourage hesitant readers. Struggling readers are more apt to read text that is in a fun format.

The content for each of these 4 animals comes in 2 formats:

*accordion pocket booklet / foldable booklet

*one page (written almost like a newsletter)

The information is identical, but presented in 2 different ways.

Making these little pocket books lets your students interact with print and paper. Book arts (origami and book-making) often appeals to the struggling reader. They love taking a sheet of paper and turning it into a simple book.

Directions on how to make an accordion pocket booklet

4 mini accordion pocket booklets (foldables) on these mammals:

BABY BEARS (Brown Bears)

BABY OWLS

BABY SEALS

BABY SLOTHS

4 Fact Sheets on each topic (same information, different format!)

2 Writing templates (combine as a report or hand out separately)

4 Pockets to choose from (These will hold the mini accordion booklets.)

Photos of sample mini accordion booklets

Many kids are hesitant when they see informational text in a regular book. But when they see the same volume of text in a mini book form, they are less apt to give up or refuse to read. First graders and second graders find mini books fun to read and take home. Third graders, too, who are reading below grade level, will discover how fun and easy these little books are. Foldables or mini accordion books, can be a tool to encourage students to read.

These little informational books contain basic content (animal science) vocabulary as well. I hope your students (regardless of their reading levels), have success with these mini books. These mini books were written to target a second grade reading level. They do not contain all the facts about these animals, but they do have some fun facts to keep kids interested and comprehend what they are reading. It’s fun to collect them and keep them in a pocket. There are 4 templates to choose from: 3 with graphics…and one for kids to make their own “custom” pocket book holder.

You will also find the same topics in a different format…with facts all on one sheet, presented without making folds.

This set is suitable for after school programs, homework, tutoring, summer programs, literacy centers, and independent work.

Check their reading comprehension with the writing activity that goes with this set!

Thank you for checking this out!

Please stop by again to see if Growing Smart Readers has what you are looking for!
