I wonder if anyone besides me did the happy dance when the last dibels assessment timer went off??? Ha-ha, I know you did! It feels so good to be back to center prep and plans for guided groups next week.  I am excited to get these babes into the swing of learning those new sight words, literacy centers and more!

Every year I use this adorable poem that I am sorry to say I do not remember who the original author is/was.  I would love to credit them on my blog! I made this version to use in our pocket chart center at school and thought I’d share.  

Something else we are working on is our second power point slideshow featuring the next Journeys 2014 aligned sight words.  Students chant each list progressively faster.  We test one list per week.  You can find it here.
