This website provides some fun writing practice for elementary students! It offers everything from poetry to creating story maps. Use these organizers while you read to write about your thinking or be creative and create something new!

This is a website that has word work and Reading practice. A Boom Card is an interactive card made by teachers that provides students with the practice they need for a specific skill. I will update this and add Boom Cards often!

Use the skill we were working on in your reading group:

This website allows you to type in a spelling list and do different activities with the words. You could type in your sight word list and practice those words using the activities they provide!

This is a website for parents that offers book lists with recommendations for grade levels and activities, quizzes to go with the books they read, and rewards they can earn.
