More About This Resource
These differentiated decodable write the room activities give kindergarten students practice with handwriting skills and spelling words and short sentences that contain targeted phonics skills.
Each activity focuses on a set of letters that follows an explicit and systematic phonics scope & sequence. Words & sentences are based on phonics-based controlled text sentence that contains target phonics skill words, previously taught phonics skill words, and irregular high-frequency words. The science of reading shows us that the connection between what our students learn in phonics and what they read & write is imperative for building a strong foundation in early reading!
In this activity, students move around the room with their recording sheet. Each recording sheet consists of 2 activities: 1) identifying beginning sounds and hand writing skills and 2) encoding words & short sentences.
Words and sentences increase in difficulty as students move through the scope & sequence.
This alphabet write the room activity would be perfect for morning warm-ups, centers, or small group learning.

- 26 alphabet sound picture cards for each consonant and short vowel sound

I love using this write the room every week. Each week we focus on a new letter and this is a great center activity that we repeat every week. It is great for students to get up and out of their seat while also practicing writing and reading sentences.
