Beginning R Blends--Word Work

Benchmark Unit 2: beginning R blends with short vowel words. A little tough when you might be missing your two front teeth!  I want the kids to become independent during Daily 5.  A little something for daily practice.

Beginning with Blends???

Our district uses Benchmark Universe as our non-basal ELA series. It is definitely a different type reading and language arts program. First grade BEGINS with blends! In order to use large group, small group, and word work Daily 5 rotations, I began developing materials mid-year. Now I am going back to the beginning--use those blends.
You are welcome to use if you wish!

I am linking up with Farley's August...

I am listening to HGTV. Needless to say sometimes it makes me feel better and sometimes ready to throw up my hands and say "I forget this!".

Who doesn't love the lazy days of summer--sleeping until I decide to awaken! Sitting on the screened in porch! Listening to the birds chirp!

I am thinking about our trip to Vegas next month. I guess I better save my $$$! But wanting to go back to the beach too! I would love to live close enough to go to the beach any day of the year!

I need to get up and water the flowers so that they will survive!

And I just retired so I am feeling a bit lost! No room to set up. No drive by to Target dollar spots. No searching for baskets, tax free buys...
