Children enjoy games.  Making things fun for students takes the drudgery out of memorizing things, as one of my little ones said:  “We were having so much fun we didn’t even know we were learning!”

I truly believe that learning and fun should go together.  If children enjoy learning they will WANT to come to school and you won’t have problems with discipline because students will be engaged in learning because they aren’t bored.

The Traceable Dolch Word Card packets  provide a tip list of a variety of activities you can incorporate into centers and games for students so they can immerse themselves with these words.

If you get students looking for, and using the words they will learn them.

I've discovered that looking at the words separately and trying to figure them out, is difficult for some students. Memorization is also very boring.

We teach students all sorts of attack skills when they read, yet we give them a “list” of Dolch words and hope for success.

I find that some children do so much better if they can see these words in a group.  So I’ve made up phrases using the words.

These can be found in My Read, Trace & Write Dolch Word Phrase Packets.   They include trace and write the phrase-skill sheets, 40-60 phrase cards, a letter home to parents, 3 recording “good reader” sheets, and 2 certificates of praise.  These make great Daily 5 activities.

It’s important to get parents on board to reinforce lessons at home to get struggling children over the hump as there is just not enough time for all the one-on-one needed at school.

When a student achieves success with one packet they can correct the phrases and turn them into sentences by adding capital letters, punctuation and a word or two to complete the thought.   Continue to raise the bar, and challenge students to move on to the next level of words.

Finally, I really think that teaching students the words phonetically helps a lot.  I’ve had wonderful success turning the light bulb on when some students just don’t get it when I rhyme things.

Compound Words, Sight Words, Dolch Words.... So Many Words So Little Time, So Here Are Some Time Savers:

I love making alphabetical lists of words to use as a checklist to help me find things as well as give to parents as a check off list to use to high light when their child knows a word.

Compound words is something that students from Y5 on up need to know.

I wanted to compile a list of as many compound words that I could think of so that I could draw from it to help me dream up compound word projects for my kiddo’s.

I thought maybe there might be a little over 1,000 words.  Was I surprised to come up with almost 3,000!

I hope you find it helpful; it took me hours to compile. If you think of others that I missed, please shoot me an e-mail so that I can add them.  It would be fun to hit 3,000. diane@teachwithme.com

A valuable tool for your classroom would be to make a student-driven anchor chart of compound words by using a piece of tag board.

Label the top: Compound Words and divide the poster into 3 columns.

The first column will be the beginning word, the second, the ending word and the third column will be the compound word. i.e. base   ball   baseball.

Brainstorm with your students to see how many compound words they can come up with in a few minutes and then have them write them on the poster.

Throughout the year, as they say or read a compound word, have them put it on the poster.

How about 100 by 100 Day or the end of the school year?

I also made up 2 alphabetical word list posters.  One is of “most used sight words” and the other pre-primer through 1st grade Dolch words.

They are in convenient paper-size poster format, which is perfect for a mini-anchor chart.

Have Fun With Dolch Words!

Since the CVC word Bingo Cards were such a tremendous hit, I decided to make sets of Bingo cards for the Dolch words as well.

Dolch word lists, Dolch word cards, Dolch word picture cards, pre-primer Dolch word list, kindergarten Dolch word list, 1st grade Dolch word list, 2nd grade Dolch word list, 3rd grade Dolch word list, Dolch word games, Dolch word activities, Dolch wordlists, Dolch word nouns, Dolch word picture cards, Dolch word certificatesHere's what to do:

Run each set off on a DIFFERENT color of construction paper. This way you can tell that those color cards deal with a specific set of  25 words.

Laminate and cut out the cards.

Make an extra white set to cut into pieces.

There are 25 words per set.  Because of the FREE space, there are only 24 words used on each card.

Glue the white pieces onto the matching color construction paper for each set of Dolch Bingo cards.

These pieces will be the cards that you draw so that students can put their “markers” on their bingo cards.
