I love how word walls work!! I worked in a classroom in high school that had a word wall and it worked so well. The kids used the wall whenever they needed help spelling one of their sight words. I think it really helped them! I will definitely have a word wall and use it on a daily basis. The word list on our book is great, if you have not had time to look at it then I fell that you should. I know I will be keeping this book to use as a resource in my classroom!
I also like talking about sponge activities. I have a whole notebook of fun games that can be adapted to the classroom. I had never thought about play short fun games in the classroom to fill time. I am glad we talked about this now so that I can make sure to keep all the games I have collected to use in my classroom one day!

I too loved the Word Wall activities. I think they're a great way of helping our students feel more independant. Sponge activities are also a great way of filling in those last few minutes instead of just wasting them!
