Here is a simple idea to help your little kindergarten student learn his or her high frequency words (ask your child’s teacher for a list of the words if you do not have them).  Anna and I sat down with some old magazines and had a search for her “apple words” as her teacher calls them.  This was actually the most fun part of this project.  Anna was so excited when she found one of her words and was able to cut it out.
Next, we used Modge Podge and decoupaged them onto magnets.  We used advertising magnets that we receive in the mail every- so-often and cut them to fit the words.  I always save those magnets because they tend to come in very handy.
Anna loves practicing her words when she walks by. Â We plan to add new words as she learns them in school.
