The -og family

Learning word families help kids to rhyme, spell and read better. We just finished working with words that have an "og" ending. Here's just some of the fun...

The frog and hog on the log

Making sentences with -og words

Making fog art with our 4th grade buddies

And here's how I got the awesome idea for our fog art

I was so impressed with the end result: "The dog in the fog" and "The frog in the fog"

SEEL

SEEL is Systematic Engaging Early Literacy, a learning style that aligns very well with my ideas on 5 senses learning. I encourage you to investigate the website http://education.byu.edu/seel to see how these principles work in your home. My favorite part about SEEL is the kids enjoy what they are learning. I was recently invited to help improve their website and I am super excited for this opportunity. I sure would love to get feedback from you parents that I could pass along also. Specifically, we'd like to know if it is easy to understand and navigate. This past week we've done a lot of activities from SEEL. Let me know what you think.

PS- Don't miss out on the SEEL videos: go to the activity plan database and scroll all the way to the bottom to the video library. I look forward to hearing from you!
