Vacation and Vowels

I have been absolutely spoiled by the gorgeous spring weather this week in Massachusetts while on spring break.  Each day has been sunny and warm.  Usually, the husband and I get away for the spring vacation but this year with the new addition on our house, we are staying home.

 

So thus far this week I have split my time between wine and a good book on the deck and getting my newest resource completed and uploaded to TPT.  I'm really pleased with how it turned out.  You can find it for sale in my Teachers Pay Teachers store here.

  I began by creating a little "ditty" to help the kiddos remember the vowel teams (or in the above case, I do have one trigraph).  Then, I created little stories to accompany each of the vowel teams such as this one:

 

 

Also included are word sports, onset/rime spinner games, Bingo games (4 per vowel team), and a cut and paste activity.

This packet is 79 pages long and sure to be a great resource for teaching vowel teams in your classroom! Click here to check it out.  I'll be blogging about how we used it in my classroom when we return from break.

In the meantime, I have a glass of vino poured and a book that's calling my name!
