I can’t tell you how much fun I’m having making the cookie sheet activities! As soon as I finish with one volume, I already have 2 or 3 more ideas for upcoming volumes. I think I’ve been driving Kyle (my wonderful artist) nuts with all the new art I’ve been asking her to make. She’s such a trooper. Despite having two very young children she still makes time to create awesome clip art for me to use in these products. I love it that her pics are so colorful and eye-catching.
A week or so ago I finished Cookie Sheet Activities Volume 4. This volume targets the skills of identifying beginning sounds in words as well as providing extra practice with those tricky short vowel sounds. The templates correlate with the reading series we use in our schools (Harcourt). So, for example, in this reading series, the letter “Mm” is the first letter introduced followed by “Ss”, “Rr” and “Tt”. So, with the first template, students sort words beginning with the “Mm” and “Ss” sounds. If you are not using the same reading series and your order of introducing letters is different from ours, no worries, blank templates are available for you to put in your own letters.

All cookie sheet activities allow for differentiation. I’ve also included templates where students can sort 4 beginning sounds.

Now for those vowel sounds. I’ve included multiple templates for sorting CVC pictures with the short vowel sounds. These templates are also differentiated as students can sort pics with either 2 or 3 sounds.
