can just be used alone. Print cards on cardstock. Say the word
and have students segment it into syllables. You may sort by number
of syllables.)

Word
Fun (Download it, cut it, laminate the pages, punch holes
in the top left-hand corner and place the pages on a silver clip
ring. This will be a great resource when you're trying to think
of a huge variety of activities to do with words and word walls.)
-
Would you like to print
your own word wall words directly on a sentence strip? Follow
these guidelines!
- Open a blank page in Microsoft
Word. These instructions will vary depending on what version
of Microsoft Word you have on your computer.
- Go to "File" and "Page
Setup."
- Click the "Paper" tab.
- In the paper size box, scroll
down and select "custom size."
- Type in the exact width and height
of your sentence strip paper.
- Select "Horizontal"
layout then OK.
- You will need to adjust font
size. (I like to use 150 size font)
- It is possible to adjust top
and bottom margins to make letters sit on the dotted lines.
You will have to play around with that.
- It's also possible to print directly
onto index cards by setting the "rule bars" to the
correct size for the card.
- Look at the rulers at the top
and the left-hand side of the page. The ends of the ruler
bars should be gray and the rest white. The white section
shows the print area for the page. By resizing these you can
control the size of the printed page. By clicking on the line
where the white area and gray area meet and holding down the
mouse button, you can adjust the size of the print area. You
need to move both the top and the side rulers inwards to make
the print page smaller. The number you set it to depends on
the size of the card you are printing on.

Have-A-Go
Sheet (Children attempt
multiple spellings for unknown words they wish to use in writing.
The teacher writes in the conventional spelling after the child
has made three attempts.)
