Every morning Kindergartners practice ELA skills to build their reading and writing. One warm up this week was the game "Where's that sound?" where students heard real and wacky words and tried to focus their hearing on where a particular sound was heard -- in the beginning, middle, or end of the word. For example, if focusing on the sound of "A" when listening to the wacky word "BAP", students would try to identify that the a sound landed in the middle of the word. Another warm up this week was a quick sight word practice for the words "was" and "out". When we're practicing sight words, students read, trace, write, build, and find the words. We also listen for the words in read alouds, practice writing the words through multi-sensory activities (like writing in shaving cream), and search for the words around the room.
