Look @ this great pack to use from March - May. It only includes printables. These sheets can be used as morning work, homework, review, etc.....
This emergent reader little book will help young students practice early reading skills, while celebrating Spring. On each page, the lady tells about more of her pretty spring flowers. Each page follows the pattern, "I like to grow pretty flowers in the spring. Here are (number word) (color word) flowers." Sight words included in this book are I, like, to, in, the, pretty, here, is, and are. Number words and color words are also practiced throughout this book.
This emergent reader little book is a great way to begin reading with young students. This story uses a predictable pattern, "Spring, Spring, what do you see?" to support emerging readers. This story includes several Spring vocabulary words, such as caterpillar, butterfly, ladybug, rainbow, and umbrella. This book includes the same text on both the top and bottom of each sheet of paper to make copying, sorting, stapling, and cutting easy to create a class set of little books!!
