Lots of Great Ideas

I wish I'd had this book when I started teaching - it has a ton of examples and ways to use word walls to teach reading.

Great, Practical Resource

If you are a novice at using a word wall or have had one in your classroom for some time, you will find this book to be a great, practical resource. It includes descriptions of many different kinds of word walls, not just the traditional wall with an alphabetical list of sight words. Also included are activities and lessons that you can use in conjunction with your word wall.

This Book Will Work!

I ordered this book unseen because her other book, Phonics That Work!, put a terrific glow on my teaching. This one is just a good. Whether you are new to word walls, or if you've been using them for years you'll appreciate the fresh lessons and the sound theories Ms. Wagstaff provides. This is a book that will work in your classroom!
