Always loved glitter as a first grade teacher......love that on the boards!

I enjoyed your lesson ver much and I will try some of your techniques in my classes. Thank you from Rome, Italy

This is excellent! I love the "kiss your brain!"

This is very hard to put a lesson out there, and this is so well done. I hate to critique, but have to comment how important it is to model proper letter formation on the Kinesthetic part. Letters should be modeled and formed top to bottom, because this is one of the only times we can correct that with them at this age.

The /r/ sound is taught incorrectly! Take heed if you plan to copy how she teaches this sound. I'm very sorry to have to say please do not copy her. /Fr/ is not /fer/, /gr/ is not /ger/, etc. It is more like /fru/ and /gru/, with the letter "u" actually more like a schwa sound, but really much more cut off, as non-existent as possible. Think about how you say the word "frog" and how the letter "r" sounds in the word. We don't say "ferog." We also don't say "geram," we say "gram." Her way of doing it is going to set them up for confusion, if not difficulty, when they start reading words with /fr/ in them. I didn't watch the video past this section. Maybe I'll watch the rest another time and have other things to say that are more positive.

What is the book you are using with the letters and words?

Is that sand or glitter?

I love the way how you are bridging some words to keep that bilingual environment! Ser bilingüe is wonderful!

I loved the class❤️❤️❤️ beautifully done

where do you get your cards and your blending board?

Great lesson.

My team and I had the OG training. I love how you were able to keep your small group focused. The glitter is an amazing idea.

What are you using for "sand"?

AWESOME!!GOOD ENERGY GOOD LEARNING ENVIRONMENT!!

fr not ferrr, more like fra, clipping the a. Same with r. "more "ra" than errrrr. Great lesson, tho.

Where did you get your cards?

Excellent lesson. As an OG teacher/tutor, the way I have the kids determine if "real word/silly word" (( use same terminology,)is use it in a sentence. If it makes sense, it's a real word. Good use of shin/shine. I also use tachioscopes that they make from cut up manilla folders and words typed on strips of paper to pull thru the "magic e machine.". This will help them to read plan to plane, cut to cute, etc.

I liked the three part drill. I love the stretching and snapping. Also the real and nonsense cards. The only advice I have is letter formation. You were writing the letters in the sand from bottom to top when you are supposed to write letters from top to bottom. I know it’s hard to do upside down but important for students. Nice video!

It is difficult to see the glitter. Is it glitter that can be purchased at a craft store. Also, how do your store the trays?

You're a great teacher.
