As you engage with the creative process in this story, think about how we use words creatively and can even create new words.

We are all living with the power of the magical yet. What words are you yet to discover and what new lessons are there to be learned?

Life can go by in a blur, just like this school year. Wherever you are looking to gradually graduate to, we wish you congratulations.

Consolidate, revisit and review. Our students do it and we can too. Be reminded about the ways we can study words using great books.

Why not take A Walk in the Words with Hudson Talbott and Engage. There is no need to feel overwhelmed, just consider a word at a time.

(Sea?) see it (hear?) here, a (grate?) great book about homophones! So many interesting phonemes to explore with students and this llama.
