I'm linking up with Tara at 4th Grade Frolics again for
Yesterday I posted about sight word practice. Click {HERE} to read. To help my students practice their sight words even more, I made Tara's Shake, Write, and Learn Tumblers. When I saw this idea I was instantly hooked! I know my kids will love doing this activity and I think it compliments WBT's SuperSpeed 100/1000 very well. While SuperSpeed works on reading sight words, the Shake, Write, and Learn Tumblers focus on spelling and writing sight words. By using both, my students will have a great grasp on sight words!
While I was reading up on WBT, I read Tonya's post and followed the link to Ashley at The Polka Dot Patch. She has the WBT rules you can download and print, so I did that and attached them to ribbon.
I teach at a Multiple Intelligence (MI) school and love how well the strategies from WBT align with MI. I will definitely be spending more time this summer reading and watching videos from WBT.
For more fun items, I made these bookmarks from paint samples that I picked up at Walmart. I had a star punch that I used along the sides, then tied some silver ribbon to the top. I plan to pass these out at meet your teacher day.
Don't forget to link up and share what you've done this week!
I love the shake, write, reads. As soon as I get the second grade sight word list, I will be making these for a word work station. Thanks for sharing!

I too LOVE WBT. I use a lot of the gestures and such in class. A lot of fun! I want to read more about their SuperSpeed though... definitely may have to come back to you with questions about it! Love the little sight word shakers.
