If you want to make a portable word wall
in your classroom...
1. See a portable word wall in a
colleague's classroom.
2. Research the portable word wall and
see an example of one on Pinterest. All word cards are sorted by the letter of the alphabet and stored on a one inch book ring. Each book ring is hung on its own (removable) hook in alphabetical order across the wall under the chalk ledge.
3. Go to www.djinkers.com and purchase alphabet border and printer pages. Create the ABC covers for each book ring. Find an amazing site with free flashcards, www.uniqueteachingresources.com
4. Heidi McDonald has created the site, Unique Teaching Resources and it is a goldmine. Heidi has grouped the Fry Words in lists of 100 words. Each set includes the list, a student profile list, weekly word lists and color-coded flashcards. Run the flashcards on cardstock and cut them out. Three-hole punch the cards and sort the cards according to the letters of the alphabet. Put all of the letters cards on their correct letter card ring. Hang the 26 removable hooks on the wall and hang the portable letter card rings in alphabetical order on the hooks!
I have attached a copy of the ABC cover cards, a full-size word work journal and a smaller -version of the word work journal. Get your copy HERE.
