Fix It Up Sentences (May) ($1.00 for 3 days only!)

Woo Hoo! Only 20 more days of school after this week of spring break (late for us). I am counting down the days! I hope you are in the same boat as me! If not, hang in there! It's coming!

Here is my Fix It Up Sentence pack for May to help get you through these last days of school! These Fix It Up Sentences are great for introducing or reviewing capital letters and ending punctuation. The students have to rewrite each sentence correctly by starting each sentence with a capital letter and putting the correct ending punctuation.

This Fix It Up Sentence pack will help prepare your students with the reading and writing skills they need. Students must be able to read each sentence in order to put the correct ending punctuation to see if the sentence is telling, asking a question, or showing excitement. It also checks for reading comprehension because at the bottom, the directions tell the students to draw a picture of the story on the back of their paper. Students must be able to read the sentences which create a story when read together and understand what they are reading to be able to draw a matching picture on the back. For kindergarten, it makes great morning work, homework, or literacy center activities or independent reading/writing work for first and second graders depending on the level of your students.


The following is a PREVIEW of the pack.  

Fix It Up Sentences (May)



This Fix It Up Sentence Pack is connected to the CCGPS ELACCKL2a: Capitalize the first word in a sentence and the pronoun I. This packet contains 10 pages. Each page has a simple story on it including five sentences. The ten stories are about seeds, flowers, garden bag, butterflies, garden gloves, planting, growing, watering can, and a wheelbarrow. The sentences are not written correctly. The first letter in each sentence has not been capitalized and the ending punctuation is missing. Have your students rewrite each sentence correctly. Begin each sentence with a capital letter and add the correct ending punctuation. The sentences used contain frequently used sight words, decodable words that students should be able to read, and a few other common nouns that students see often. These activities are great for morning work, literacy centers, homework or for a quick mini lesson on including capital letters and ending punctuation in sentences. Students can read the story to a partner or to the teacher after correcting the sentences. Students could also add other details to the story using the back of their paper. 

Take a look at the PREVIEW to see all pages included. 

I hope your students enjoy "fixing" the sentences. I always tell them that the person who made the sentences did not know how to write sentences correctly and that they have to be the teacher and correct the sentences. They have so much fun with these, and I hope your students do too!

This Fix It Up Sentences (May)  pack is available for 
ONLY $1.00 for 3 days!
Friday, April 24th
Saturday, April 25th &
Sunday, April 26th

You can click on the preview photo above to access it or click HERE! 

I hope your students ENJOY this May Fix It Up Sentence Pack. 

You can find many more Fix It Up Sentence packs HERE! They are available for most months including summer which makes a great addition to a summer review pack to send home with students.

Spring Read and Write (Close Reading)

Spring is finally here! I am ready for some warmer weather. I don't think I could survive living in the north. I don't know how some of you do it! 

Here is a Spring Read and Write to help get you warmed up! These "Read and Writes" are great for introducing close reading. The students have to look back in the story to find the correct answer to complete the sentence correctly.

This Read and Write pack will help prepare your students with the reading comprehension skills they need. The short story in this packet is great for introducing close reading. Your kindergarten students should be ready for this resource by this time of the school year if they are meeting grade level expectations. If your students are still struggling, these short stories can be used for quick read alouds and then completing the sentences together. It makes great independent reading work for first graders.  

Spring Read and Write

This product is AVAILABLE in a Read and Write Bundle
offering a SAVINGS of 12%.


In this three page Spring Read and Write pack, students will read the one page spring story and color the pictures. Then there are two pages with five sentences on each page about the story. Each sentence has a missing word. At the end of each sentence, there are two words for students to choose the correct missing word. Students will circle the word that correctly completes the sentence matching the story on the first page, and then write the correct word in the blank. 

This is a great reading and comprehension check for guided reading, a mini lesson, a literacy center, or homework. 

This short story is great for guided reading groups, homework, literacy center activities, independent reading, or for introducing close reading strategies.
I hope your students enjoy this story and fill in the blank sentences.

Reading Comprehension: Who? What? How?

Wow! The third quarter of this school year is almost over. Time sure is flying by! Are your students ready for the next grade level? Have you prepared your students with the reading comprehension skills needed for success in the years ahead?

This reading comprehension packet on Who? What? and How? will help prepare your students with the reading comprehension skills they need. The short stories in this packet are also great for introducing close reading. Your kindergarten students should be ready for this resource by this time of the school year if they are meeting grade level expectations. If your students are still struggling, these short stories can be used for quick read alouds focusing on the Who? What? and How? questions included.  


This 7 page book is designed so that you can copy the book, cut it in half, staple, and then it is ready for use. If you would rather use each story separate, you can do that without putting it together in book format. The seven pages consist of a title page "Who? What? How?" with each of the remaining 6 pages including a short story with a matching black and white picture. Under each short story, there are three questions about the story. The three questions ask "Who? What? and How? questions about the story.

The following photos show some of the stories included in the packet.






These stories can be put together in booklet form as discussed above or individual sheets can be used. The story/questions are on a half sheet of paper.

No matter what format you decide to use, there are many uses for these stories/questions. They can be used in a kindergarten class with the teacher reading the story and questions to the students and having the students use invented spelling to write their answers. They can also be used for independent reading practice in first or second grade by letting students read the short story, read the questions, and answer the questions even if they have to look back in the story to find the answer. Looking back in the text to find the answer is part of the popular "close reading" strategies.  

These short stories are great for guided reading groups, homework, literacy center activities, independent reading, or for introducing close reading strategies.

I hope your students enjoy these stories and questions. If you like what you see in this product, it is currently available in my Reading Comprehension Bundle including 8 other reading comprehension books. This bundle offers a 15% SAVINGS! You can find the BUNDLE HERE!

I hope your students enjoy these stories and questions.
