Here is a great Resource that I have been using for 9 years.
Yeah I know, that is unheard of. Who has a resource that they have used year
after year for that long? Here’s the thing, it is a great resource and once I have
it running it is effortless on my part. That is always a good thing. I love to
use my time creating ways to address what the students need. And I hate the monotonous
duties of changing centers.
So Word Work was born. It consists of a list of words (the
Word Bank) and a bunch of recording sheets. I use this in my center rotation.
What is different about this word work?
All the words are listed in the Word Bank. The
Word Bank is a file folder with 2 pages of words attached.
Every time Students use the word
bank they are looking for something different using standard based recording sheets. Here's a short list of some of the recording sheets.

Students grab a Word Bank Folder
and a recording sheet. Follow the directions on the recording sheet. Read the
words in the Word Bank to find the words, next use the words in a sentence.
Word Work is a great way to reinforce how words are used, every week the students are looking for something different. It really helps them gather a deeper understanding of words and how to use words correctly.
