This word of the day calendar bundle from SOL Train Learning is a vocabulary tool that every teacher should have in his or her arsenal. So much more than a calendar, or word of the day resource, this product provides numerous teaching opportunities for you and your students. We have provided a teacher guide for your circle/calendar time, as well as a teacher guide for our word of the day student calendars. These calendars provide you with writing ideas, pattern practice, vocabulary development, grammar opportunities, age-appropriate definitions, and seasonally appropriate words for supplemental lessons. These calendars are also editable if you want to change the words.
“These word of the day calendars have helped to improve our students’ writing as well as their vocabulary development! ” and ” These calendars are great for ELL students!” are just a few comments made by teachers.
