I found two websites that will be so helpful in my classroom next year. The first one is called Starfall. I was aware of this website but I have never taken a lot of time to look through it and think about how I could use it in my classroom. The website has many books. Last year my kindergartners used the website during choice time. Next year I think that I want to use the website systematically. When I introduce the letters at the beginning of the year I want to give each student the opportunity to view the book with all the words that begin with that specific letter. Later on in the year I will use the books when they introduce phonics rules!
Between the Lions is another great site that can be used in my classroom. This site has many fun games. These games have the students practicing early reading skills. Again, I would like to use this site not only as a choice for choice time but as a extended or reinforcement activity after lessons that I teach.
