Favorite things #4 – Free Printables!
There are a couple of sites that I visit over and over again, and my guided reading instruction wouldn’t be the same without them.
Hubbard’s Cupboard is a great place to find printable booklets for children to read and take home. These booklets are carefully written by an educator and categorized by the word family or sight words that they teach. I love having these little books that kids can take home and read.
From Hubbard’s Cupboard, you can get to Carl’s Corner where this creative educator has organized a seemingly endless collection of activites that reinforce word families. I use so many of the materials available here. I don’t know what I would do without this resource. Oh, and one of the best things is that she has put all of the activities for each word family into a “zip file”. So that you can just download the whole file and use what you want (some are word documents and others are in .pdf form).
