I love to use my word wall in the classroom for lots of activities but I REALLY, REALLY like it when the kids use it as a reference. (kinda the point, huh) :) - Yea, I know. This year I have put together a personal book for each kiddo that they will be able to reference and I can quickly use it to assess their sight word recognition. These sight words specifically follow the Texas Journeys Reading Basal for 2nd grade. Anyone can use this but I've used the 300 sight words in the order of this series. Each Friday I will listen to the students read the list of of words to me. I plan to use a different highlighter for each week to mark a word that the student struggles with and we can spend more one on one time in small group for mastery. I'm going to place the booklets on rings like you see above and hang from hooks on the back of a cabinet. My goal this year is to FEEL like I'm on top of things...................rather than slow...
