Need another phonics activity to tuck into your toolbox? Pull out this free worksheet from have fun teaching and practice your blends! Some of the hardest sounds to make are the blends, especially for young students or students from countries whose languages are very different from ours. This is a great ESOL strategy, as well as great practice for those little guys who all need to be great readers some day!

Nothing says back to school for the little ones like mastering sight word lists. I can think of a few good uses for these with ESOL students, too. With all the focus on low reading scores and esol students, mastering theseis tantamount to reading fluency success. Practice them with your students with these worksheets. Other ideas include putting these in clear file so they can tally mark each time they see one of the words in a story or reading passage. You could also use one as the crazy word of the day. When someone says it or read it aloud, everyone does a specific cheer!
