Ready to change how you do morning messages? Looking for some new ideas? I have written several posts about my system that is a spiral review of important reading skills. It is also differentiated which works great when your class includes a wide variety of levels.
Post #1: My morning routine which includes management tips.
Post #2: Hectic schedule this year? Set up morning messages as a writing center. This post includes tips.
Post #3: Improve your students’ handwriting with morning messages.
Each of the thematic packets include ten morning messages except for the free ones.
Themed packets:
- Back to School – K/1 (10 messages)
- Back to School – 2/3 (10 messages)
- Fall Fun – K/1 (can be used in September, October, and November) (10 messages)
- Fall Fun – 1st (can be used in September, October, and November) (10 messages)
- Martin Luther King Jr.
- Winter Olympics – FREE
- Chinese New Year – FREE
- Father’s Day – FREE
- Cinco de Mayo – FREE
- Memorial Day – FREE
- Summer
- Time (Combo with task cards)
- Time
- Black History Month
- Phonics: OY – FREE
By request, I bundled two grade levels together. There are 10 messages of each grade level in these packets (20 messages per packet).
Kindergarten – 1st grade
1st and 2nd grade
2nd and 3rd grade
By request, I am adding more grade level packets for teachers who do morning message daily. You can follow my store or Facebook page if you want to be notified when I add more of these packets. I am selling Volume 2 (10 messages) separately and as a combo with Volume 1 (10 messages) so teachers have the option of having 20 messages. Below are the ones I’ve finished so far.
Kindergarten
1st Grade
2nd Grade
3rd Grade
