Welcome to Reading Street!

Teacher Resources

You are welcome to link to my site and use my resources in your classroom, but please respect my hard work and do not copy my page or files and add them to your website!

Vocabulary and Amazing Words PowerPoints were created by Anndrea Dyer.

Word Wall Words (High Frequency Words) PowerPoints were created by Joanne Whitley.

Password Game template was created by Connie Campbell.

Thanks to Vicki Kinder for being willing to share her spelling bubble tests and Seatwork forms!

A special thanks to Cherry Carl (Carl's Corner) for creating activities for our HFW.

Be sure to check out the Reading Street Student Activities page for online games for vocabulary, amazing words, spelling, and high frequency words.  I plan to add games for grammar skills for each story.

I have updated my Weekly PowerPoints.  In an effort to make things easier, I have added a "Click here to listen" to the title slide, the Sing With Me slide, and the Phonics Poem slide. To use this, download the songs and stories from the CDs that came from Scott Foresman to your projector computer.  Then hyperlink to this phrase on the slides.  This will be much easier than using a CD player!
