Unit 9 of our Ready2Read Level 2 is officially finished in The Moffatt Girls Household! With only 1 unit left in Level 2, I am blown away with Audrey’s reading progress! Her fluency is outstanding, which has really helped her focus more on comprehension when reading chapter books. The more fluent a child is with his/her decoding skills, the more they are able to focus on understanding the text at a deeper level.
If you are new to the Ready2Read program, you can read the information page for Level 1 {HERE}.
You can also see the information page for Level 2 {HERE}.
Level 2 Theme: Word Family Fair
Unit 9 Sight Words: pretty, so, ran, what, but
Unit 9 Word Families: -ose and -ight
Unit 9 continues to work with the long vowel, silent e combo with the -ose word family. The free units for helping with this phonics rule can be seen in Unit 1.

Sentence Strip Review
Audrey loves to play the sentence strip review game (for the primer sight words and new word families). She tries to find the word before I do! This game really help students to focus on search for sight words and identifying them quickly!
Read it, Trace it, Paste it
Painting and tracing with watercolors is still a favorite…
Of course the traceable words need to match the boxed words…

Play Dough Mats
Making letters out of play dough and then turning them into words is a great way for kids to get some hands-on interaction with making words. Activities like this really make it stick!

Audrey used the big ice cream cone from the Word Family Fair wall to help write down the words for each word family…
Word Slides
I couldn’t pass up these scrabble tiles for our word slides! Audrey like them too and wanted to make her words look exactly like the scrabble letters:) Seeing the word, saying the word and writing the word are great ways to reinforce a learning experience.

Each word gets a separate color. The words are in various fonts to help children be able to recognize words in different fonts.

Thank you for sharing your teaching gifts and I just loved all those pics of your sweet Miss Audrey! She looked like she was enjoying every second of her learning!! Wishing you a wonderful 'rest of the week' ~ x

Good Morning Mrs Rubie

Owl Things First
Well I always plant fake flowers in real dirt. I mean of course.
Annie!!! I can't believe you had a dream about me. But what is even more strange is that I woke up and bought two things of yours this morning so I could have them to do with one of my reading groups today.
Isn't that incredible?
We are totally sharing a brain.
Now don't forget to close the gate and refrain from watering the flowers. It just makes mud in the house.
Annie – I love all of your sight word and word family games. I agree – kids learn so much more when they have fun. Great creativity! Thanks so much for sharing these ideas and the wonderful pictures. Renee
aaaahhhh … I just love it all!
You are so talented, hard-working and THOROUGH!
love it love it love it

Will you reveal the Level 3 theme??? We are doing Level 2 and finally took down our level 1 Garden. This was just sad to him, haha, and I told him we had to make room for new stuff. And now he keeps asking what's the next theme, haha.
Hi gsv,
Level 3 is going to be an ocean theme and I am super excited about it! However, it will not be released until early to mid-summer.
LOVE the cheerio idea! That would work well for my son and reinforcing letter recognition. Thanks!
Sorry for so many comments, I haven't visited your blog in a while! 🙂
