BIG NEWS!

Have you heard the big news????




It's raining in California!  

That means we can green up this spring! That's a HUGE celebration! 



Just as right as rain…

 is the big TpT quarterly sale. 

You know the one where TpT takes an additional 10% off, on top of the store's 20%… Here's the best news you won't even have to dodge the raindrops. My cart is already overflowing and I can't wait to go shopping! How 'bout you? 







In honor of this sale Jen and I will add our March Phonemic Awareness Listening Games from our Common Core Aligned Phonemic Awareness Curriculum (Set 2) to  our Hello Two Peas TpT store  where we have added to our curriculum author study bundles like the Jan Brett Set featured below. These have been a huge hit with students and teachers!



This is a complete month of original Common Core aligned phonological awareness curriculum. If you follow our curriculum in your classroom, which requires 10-15 minutes a day, you will see amazing phonological awareness growth in your students. This program is tried and true, used in K and first grade classrooms at our schools.


The curriculum is based on 16 phonological awareness skills that we have identified in the Common Core under Reading Foundational Skills. The program was written around the Kindergarten and First Grade Common Core Standards and skills including the Common Core document, Appendix A, based on phonological awareness research and the general progress on phonological awareness skills in the foundational reading process.  The activities/lessons are text-based, meaning the words and phrases for the phonological awareness lessons (which we call 'listening games') are based on popular read aloud titles (books not included) from your monthly curricular themes. This curriculum is also appropriate for Pre-K and T-K, as well as for anyone working in a teaching capacity with Kinders or First Grade students, Ell's or students in speech and language. We hope you take advantage of this sale and stock up on our monthly bundles. 





For those of you who are involved in writing workshop instruction, I hope you will visit my TpT store and check out my writing workshop curriculum. It's a perfect way to address the management, routines and procedural lessons critical to running an effective writing workshop. 



Happy Shopping!
