Word Wall

Everyone does their word wall a little differently. I seem to move mine around every year. This past year I put my word wall on the cabinet doors where my students put their backpacks. This put all the words at their eye level. This helped with my word work during centers. I used it as a teaching tool prior to packing up for the day too. Using words on multi-colored paper was to much for my students. I have since printed the words onto white cardstock. However, I did leave students' names colorful.

In the past I have taught my students Dolch Pre-Primer and Primer sight words. This past year my district switched to Reading 3D program using guided reading and Daily 5. I have already made sight words for my new word wall. Click on the picture below to see it. I am also working on a pack for number and colored words too.
