Fee Fi Fo Fum!
Jack's Giant's Pocket Chart Story Bundle will be so much fun!
This can be used as an extension to a theme centered around Fairy Tales and/or can be used as a follow-up to any of the Jack and the Beanstalk stories like “Jack in the Beanstalk” retold by Carol Ottolenghi.
Introducing a new poem or emergent reader each week is an easy way to extend the learning of so many skills. In my classroom the poem of the week goes along with our theme. I use the sentence strips in a pocket chart to introduce the poem.
The next day I pull up the FULL-size book on the interactive board and track the words with a soft pointer. The students use their own HALF-page copy to follow along. The students highlight sight words that they know (or the ones we are working on), partner read, and then color in the pictures so that their book is ready to take home and read to the parents.
Using the sentence strips as a literacy center. The pocket chart is used to encourage students to use a pointer and track as they recite the poem/story each day. The printable pictures can be removed and placed in a basket. Students can pair up, pulling the correct pieces for each line, then take turns reading it.
This emergent reader also has an added math element to it; one-to-one correspondence, number words, and number recognition as well as subitizing.
To practice these math skills, I have included three additional hands-on activities: memory cards, puzzles, and the Beanstalk Castle Mat Match. The beanstalk match includes: one-to-one correspondence, number words, and number recognition, objects and ten frames.
The printable emergent reader (in half and full page) uses rhymes, repetitive text and number words to count objects the Giant sees. There are a few nonsense words that follow common phonetic rules to add an element of fun.
Targeted High-Frequency and CVC Words: can, I, see.
Vocabulary words: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, drum, shoes, trees, doors, hives, sticks, Kevins, gates, vines, hens.
Prints in black and white and two per page which helps helps save paper when copying for the whole class. Includes a detailed cover for a ten page emergent reader. The reader has follow-along touch dots to aid in tracking left to right and it is inset on the left edge to allow for staples.
Extension activities to Jack and the Beanstalk can really solidify the learning in your classroom. Be sure to check out this resource along with other Pocket Chart Poems and Stories at:
