My co-teacher was up late one night last year looking for a concrete reading plan. We do not have a reading series, and just felt it was time to push all of our mix match stuff away. We really wanted to make this time as fun and engaging as our other subjects, without purchasing a reading series. Anyway, my teacher ran onto Georgia's website and the Units the state of GA has created for first grade. And let me tell you, GA, you have it together! We have LOVED following your plan. Thank you! If you haven't seen them, take a look! I have saved them in Google Docs...
First Nine Weeks
Second Nine Weeks
Third Nine Weeks
Fourth Nine Weeks
The first extended text in the first nine weeks is, The Wizard of Oz.
This inspired me to make this Wizard of Oz unit, here. This is a 38 page packet that includes so many reading and writing activities, as well as a narrative template, and an assessment! Our kids have LOVED, LOVED, LOVED it! It's $5.00, but has everything you will need for the duration of this extended text.
After the extended text, you read through many short texts. One of them is Me on the Map! So I created this ATLAS booklet to go with that. It is, here.
And for the FREEBIES,
we read, How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World (below).
We used this 3 column chart to help us write our narrative!
Thanks for stopping by!
