The Phonics Interactive Notebook is an amazing product from Sweet for Kindergarten that my students and I loved. Interactive notebooks are a great way to keep track of learning and growth. The particular bundle that I used was the beginning and ending sound unit.
What you get:
40 engaging pages
- Beginning Sounds Sorts
- Ending Sounds Sorts
- Beginning and Ending Sounds Practice Pages
- How to Use (with picture directions)
- Picture examples
- Answer Key
How I used this product in my classroom:
- I created a notebook out of construction paper for my students. If you have a notebook, that would also work great.
- Students created the cover on the first day
- I made an example for the students to look at before beginning.
- Instructions were reviewed and reinforced.
- The first day students had to refer back to the example a lot.
- The second day, the students were pros at assembling their pages.
- The dotted lines are very helpful in assisting students with cutting properly.
What I like about this product
- It was perfect for word work.
- Students can use this every day at centers.
- There is a record of their learning
- There are beginning and ending sounds for differentiation.
- Cutting skills and letter/ sound recognition are being worked on at the same time.
This product is a must have for kindergarten teachers. My students are enjoying doing their notebooks everyday. They are learning all of their beginning sounds. I look forward to beginning ending sounds. This is a 5 star product that you can buy here.
