The words Common Core are words that people either love, hate, or tolerate. It does not matter how you feel about the words Common Core because our job is to teach. I teach in a state that uses Common Core. I have no choice in the standards I am told to teach, but I have tons of choice in how I deliver that information to my students. I choose to make learning fun so Common Core is fun.
As I was looking over my data, I noticed that my students were struggling with either naming letters or isolating the initial sound in words. After looking over my data, I just happened to wander through Dollar Tree where they had giant googly eyes. Who can resist giant googly eyes?...not this teacher that's for sure! And I just might have bought this Frankenstein bucket after Halloween last year because it was on sale and cute!
Voila! Some Silhouette vinyl letter stickers, some alphabet clipart, 13
packages of giant googly Dollar Tree eyes, and 1 Frankenstein bucket....I
Spy Frankenstein Letters was created. My kiddos loved saying "I
Spy" and then flipping over a giant eye to name the letter or say the
letter sound. I played it in small group to teach my kiddos how to play.
Now it is in the word work center to practice letter naming or isolating
initial sounds.
Here are the differentiated recording sheets to go along with I Spy...Frankenstein.
