Description
I liked the idea of the focus walls I was seeing on Pinterest and TpT, but they weren’t quite what I needed for my own class. My students aren’t yet reading, so to post a weekly objective or topic wasn’t going to be practical. This is my alternative!
We use it during calendar time and in the first few weeks of school, I’ve already noticed how much of an effect it is having on my students. For example, during the beginning of the school year, we’ve been spending more time on routines, behaviors, colors, numbers, and shapes than a heavy focus on letters and phonics. But my students are picking up the letter names and sounds just from reviewing this board on a daily basis! This has a perfect solution for my students that don’t sit still for long.
Each week I post a new set of cards and hang the old ones on another bulletin board for a quick daily review.
Here’s What’s Included:
♥ Banners: Weekly Focus, Monthly Focus, Focus Wall
