Word building and write along

Each day we do a word building activity in which we learn new word patterns and make real words and silly words with those patterns. We practice reading them to our partner and even make silly sentences. "The school had a pool with water that was cool and built with many tools." "The boy who had a toy was filled with joy and his name was Roy." 

We also do a write along activity in which everyone writes a given sentence on whiteboards. We have started doing tongue twisters- these are tricky and easy to practice at home! 

"Busy bees are buzzing."
