H A T Week

In our walk-to-intervention kindergarten groups, we started out with the following letters: H A T

They have been reading lots of "hat" books!  Students use highlighter tape to find words that start with "h" and then make word lists with the teacher!  Next week they will be adding additional letters to make more "at" words!

 To help students build words, many times teachers will use letter cards at work stations, but most teachers at my building use these tiles and store them in this awesome case for guided reading!

When I went into the kindergarten room they were using the tiles to build words, and the teacher stored them in cups :)  They stacked VERY easily, and didn't take up much space.  Then on Fridays, she would have students trade in letters at the end of the last guided reading group, to get read for next week.
