Each day my students show interest in reading (older threes and four year-olds!). The always ask for beginning sounds and some of them have started inventive spelling while they draw and write on their own.
I introduced compound words to continue fostering their curiosity and they loved it! Now any word they hear they want to do hands-motions I taught them to separate into two different words :)
Here are my kiddos in action! We used my newest Compound Words product to practice this skill.
The students will first foo hand motion
(repeat each word using each hand - moving closer and closer.
Once the hands are together they discover the new word).
They proceed to open the foldable and draw a picture of the new word.
This product provides 25 different compound words foldable for different level students.
Keep learning!
thanks loving your post.
