My students love this literacy center! It is a meaningful way for them to practice reading sentences with basic sight words and writing complete sentences. In addition, rereading the sentences gives students the opportunity to practice reading accurately and fluently.
Since our students are at very different reading levels, I created 2 versions (emergent and advanced) of each picture. The cards with the blue stars are for more advanced readers. The simple sentences have underlined words to remind your students to use the picture cues. In my classroom, I hang the simple & advanced sentence side by side. Just as my students have been taught and are responsible for reading “good fit books” they choose a good fit sentence to read and record.
The sentences are ready for you to print, laminate, and cut apart. Then tape them around your classroom. Last, make clipboards available and your students will be ready to “read and write the room.” Once they have found and recorded the sentences, students should practice reading the sentences fluently to themselves and then quietly to a friend.

The smile on my student”s face, who struggles so much, when he was able to “decode” the underlined word and then write the sentence was worth every penny I paid for this resource! With the students given choice of which sentence to write, I found most of mine strived to read the harder one. They were successful! The strugglers didn’t feel intimidated and they also were successful with the picture clues! The sentences are fun and the graphics are fantastic. This also lets me evaluate penmanship. I am looking forward to using the spring one soon!
