 Resources
& Teaching Suggestions
These can be used as flashcards, a word
wall, or hole punched onto word ring.
Students cut on the dotted
lines of the cover page to create the flaps. Then, they glue
the cover page to the bottom page along the center. Two
cover options are available: with clipart or without clipart.
This is an alternative to the
lift the flap book for a 1 page option. Students cut on the
dotted lines and then fold each side over the center images.
They write the vocabulary term on the outside of the flap.
This is a simple book with repetitive
sentence starters. Students cut out the pictures on the last
page of their mini reader and glue them on their correct page.
These provide students chances to build up
from simple matching to writing with the vocabulary words.
They are great for independent practice or homework.
Each photograph comes with an image
the teacher uses to work on oral language skills through
discussion. After folding the paper in half, the teacher has
questions on their side and the students have the image facing
them. The teacher can also see sentence starters, which can
be written on the board as a support for beginning ELLs. This
is great for providing vocabulary and boost writing confidence
for the next activity (#8, below).
Students have space to write
vocabulary from the discussion (#7, above). Then, they write
about the photograph. There are 2 writing rule width options.
