OMG I have been wanting to make some flip books... like forever... so here's my first attempt.  I feel my students need more practice with base words and endings and I think the -ing and -ed flip books will help.  Not only are they visual, but kinesthetic with all the "flipping." I hope you find this useful with your students!

I love this idea. But how exactly are you going to use them?

Mrs. Bussey said...

Angelia- thanks for stopping by! I am using them as a teaching tool with students to illustrate the concept of base words and endings. They are mini booklets so I will use them with individual students for reading practice and for small group lessons on endings. If I have a student who needs extra practice, I will send it home to read with mom and dad. I will place some copies in our class library. You can use them many ways to best fit your needs. If you have any other ideas- I would love to hear them.
Thanks

Thanks- going to make some more when I have time with -er and -est.
These really helped my students understand that sometimes the -ed sounds like -ed as in b-ed and sometimes it sounds like just d. After using these to review with the whole class and then with individual students, I saw a marked improvement in their reading skills. They atarted paying attention to the endings. Yeah!
