4 pages. Great anchor charts for nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs. Put a piece of card-stock under each one, and as students come across words have them write them under the poster. Fun and easy way to build vocabulary!

4 pages. A terrific way to get students using those describing words. Includes a reminder bookmark of what an adjective is.

What's Up?

If you've e-mailed me this week and haven't heard back, my apologies. We've had a glitch.  Arggg!  Not sure why I am not able to send out e-mails, but they keep erroring out and it is maddening.

I do read e-mails EVERY day, or I'd be behind in the 100's, so know that I care and WILL answer your questions.

We are in the process of getting another "little black box", but it's taking up to 5 days and the Internet keeps going in and out, that's why my blog has been posting at weird times as well.

Thanks for your understanding.  I'm sure most of us have been there.

Learning Words Magically!

Do your students need some help with words ending in silent or “magic” e?

Do they like to add that special letter to make up new words, but you don’t have the time to make up a worksheet for them?

I’ve got two Magic e packets that will really help out. 

The 28-page Magic e Packet includes an alphabetical word list with 102 magic e words + the traceable word cards, activities and an anchor chart.

Since the Dolch Word Bingo Bonanza packets have been such hot downloads, I decided to spend some time making up “magic e” bingo cards too.

There are 30 different cards (a class set) for 102 words.

If your students are like mine, they LOVE playing games. 

Let's face it, learning is simply more fun that way.

The more you immerse children with these words, the more familiar they become, ‘til finally the light bulb goes on all the while they’re enjoying themselves.

Do you have a magic e activity you'd like to share?  I'd enjoy hearing from you diane@teachwithme.com, or feel free to leave a comment here, especially if you use one of my ideas.

Thanks in advance for taking the time to share and feel free to PIN anything you feel other teachers may find helpful as well!

Thanks for stopping.  I hope you can pop back tomorrow for some more tips.
