Worksheet makers for this year

Tips for the year

  • Spelling: put the week’s pattern in the list name (“long a: ai”) so it prints on every page.
  • Time: “5 min” level with the read and draw tasks on alternate days.
  • Money: coins first, then coins and notes once counting on from quarters is secure.
  • Handwriting: try Slanted print as a step toward cursive.
