Teacher Week: When & What (Free Phonics Scope & Sequence)

I am linking up with Blog Hoppin’ for “When” of teacher week. 
Here is my plan book. I am still working figuring out what my schedule will be for next school year.  We have a changed lunch and prep.  I will still be teaching the same things, I just need to work out the timing. 
My plan book

Here are some units I use throughout the year. 
You can click on the slides to check out the products in my store and my fellow TpT sellers:

 I don’t have this file to share.  A colleague created it for the Smartboard and then I made the students’ names out of “alphabets” from Lettering Delights.

Everyday we do literacy centers and the students love them!
To supplement Social Studies, I will be using these weekly packets.  
Here are some of the “What” that I use during the year.

Writing:
Here is the phonics scope and sequence and activities my team will be using this year. 
It is a huge, comprehensive packet.

After years of an outdated phonics scope and sequence, my colleague, Janine, and I decided to create a new scope and sequence.  Our old one was based on an outdated Harcourt series we no longer used.  We came up with this first grade phonics scope and sequence.  You can download the scope and sequence here for free!  You can read on to see what is included in the packet and hopefully purchase it.  I am telling you, this packet is easy to implement and will save you tons of time.

 You can click any of the images to download our preview file.

We have included activities to go with the words for each week.  The activities can be used for morning job, homework, centers, or seat work. 
What we do for fun:

    Erica,

    I also teach in New York (Orange County) and I notice on your plans that you use http://www.engageny.org for your math plans, but not literacy. I was wondering if you are required by your district to use the Core Knowledge literacy lessons from Engage NY or does your district use another curriculum.

    Thanks,
    Beverly

      The lower grades don't have to use the Engage NY literacy. We use our own stuff and do balanced literacy.

      Thank you. I wish we could do our own stuff. The lessons are hard to get through. Have a great year.

🎂Happy 20th Birthday @teacherspayteachers ! I hav 🎂Happy 20th Birthday @teacherspayteachers !

I have been with TpT since 2008!  I remember looking for a place where I could share my computer created resources with other teachers without having to set up my own website.  TpT was suggested.  I started off with a few Microsoft Word created resources 😬. At the time, the founder of TpT, Paul and his brother Dana, were single-handedly running things. I loved getting their newsletters.

In 2009 I was in a NY times article for TpT about who owns the copyright to teacher’s lesson plan ideas…the schools or the teachers.  This was not the article the author or editors told me I would be in, but that is another story! 

I stuck with TpT and creating resources and then in 2011, the site really took off and I met all these other amazing teacher-authors and finally met Paul in real life! 

As a single homeowner on a teachers salary, I worked nights and weekends on TpT resources just to be able to afford to live in my little house.  Then something amazing happened, my hard work paid off and I was able to get myself some breathing room.  I am so grateful for TpT for giving my life purpose and financial freedom back in those days.  Even though I am married now, I am so proud of myself for being able to own that little house (I still have it and rent it out) and buy my forever home in my dream neighborhood all by myself.

So many of you found out about TpT and so many more sellers joined.  It truly became the open market place that Paul envisioned all those years ago. 

TpT is still a big part of my life all these years (and hair colors) later.  I know when I eventually retire from teaching, I will be able to do TpT full time.  I love creating and sharing resources (880 and counting) with all of you.
