Kindergarten students at the end of the school year are readers! You have worked so hard to shape them into fluent readers, and with that comes the need for more challenging reading materials. I created this set of 25 reading passages to use at the end of kindergarten. Each passage focuses on one specific sight word. Students read the passages, and fill in the blanks with the given sight word. Simple! You can complete these passages during your guided reading sessions, or display them using your projector! You can also write them on chart paper and let your kiddos help you fill in the missing sight words during your shared writing time. You choose! If you would like to use them in your classroom, check them out here!

If you are looking for a quick and easy activity to use to help your kinders learn how to spell their color words, check out this set of printables. This one printable (in every color word) lets your kiddos practice spelling the chosen color word in a variety of ways. Students color the crayon, trace the color word, read the simple color word sentence, write the missing color word, and build the color word. This one activity printable provides multiple ways for your kiddos to practice their colors so that they will be engaged while learning. You can use these for morning work, word work, or a center time activity. Grab them here!

Do you use poetry in your classroom? I create all types of poems to use in an early childhood classroom, including this set of beginning blends poems. Teachers usually teach beginning blends at the end of kindergarten, or the beginning of first grade, so these poems are geared for that age! You can print this set of poems off, and create a poetry notebook for your students. You can then go through the poems one by one as you are introducing a beginning blend. Students can highlight the blends as you go, or you can choose specific sight words for your kiddos to focus on. This set has 20 poems, so you have plenty of blends to choose from. I also recommend writing the poems on chart paper or showing them using your projector.
