I don't know about you guys, but I spend a lot of time telling my students to look at that letter again. Is it a B or a D? Check your b's and d's. Not only does it interfere with their writing ability, but it really interferes with their reading. Reading "I rode in a bus." just doesn't have the same meaning as "I rode in a dus."
Since I teach special ed, a lot of my students have B and D reversal or confusion. I decided we needed some practice with reading these 2 letters. So I made some activities this week to help my students practice identifying their B's and D's.
The first one is a FREEBIE for you guys and it's this simple B and D Zap! game. Click on the picture to download yours for free! I'd love if you would leave some feedback if you find this game useful or it helps yours students.
I also made this set of activities that I've started using with my students as an independent center to practice. Click on the picture to check it out in my Teachers Pay Teachers store.
There's also some other great freebies out there that can help.
Mrs. Wills Kindergarten has a cute Baby Diapers poster.
Make, Take, and Teach has a cute baseball and drum cue card.
The First Grade Parade has another cute poster that I love. She also has a great list of other posters out there.
And the first 3 people to leave a comment with their email address will get my B and D confusion activities for free!
These look great! I teach kdg and we work on this a lot, too:)

ReplyDeleteI haven’t been with PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST for long at all however I got an excellent service…. I spoke with PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST and he was attentive, knowledgeable and easy to speak with, during the conversation I explained my credit situation, I felt excited about getting my credit situation in order. I can’t believe what my eyes have seen on my credit report. They increased my credit score to 805 TransUnion, 808 Equifax, and 811 Experian. PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST has made me feel like we were in my credit situation together, like we are a team. I’m super excited I sincerely recommend them: PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM
ReplyDeleteI (54M) just got my new credit score, and I need a place to crow about it. It’s 712. I’m over 700 for the first time in my life thanks to PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST. My credit score was in the crapper for decades. My wife and I finally went through bankruptcy about 14 years ago. As is usually the case, we started getting credit repair offers a couple years after the bankruptcy by credit repair companies. We were very selective, and careful about not overextending, life did what life does, and we had ups and downs. I lost my job when the company for which I worked closed, and the gig economy only did so much for me. I helped open a business with a partner and sold my final stake in that business two years ago. With these ups and downs, my credit score had taken a few hits since the bankruptcy, but my wife and I have focused on eliminating debts, paying things off early whenever possible but still didn’t help boost our scores. Earlier this year we contacted PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST and explained our predicaments to him which he assured us of helping us. He gave us a list of software to purchase, and in the last two months we came up with the money and purchased them. A few days after they started our credit repair journey I started seeing some changes in my credit report. I’ve been watching my scores regularly, and started to get a lot of credit offers when my score got close to 670. Recently I was surprised when a company with which I hold an account suggested I apply for their gold card. Per the disclaimers, they reserved the right to either decline credit or giver a lower tier card (e.g. silver, standard). I was shocked when I was approved. It has the largest credit line I have ever been offered. That, in and of itself, is likely what pushed me over the threshold into the low 700s, since it significantly changed the ratio of balances held to credit available. I think I’m still in shock. If you’re struggling to build your credit, especially after a rough stretch or bankruptcy, know that Pinnacle Credit Specialist is always there for you. They’ll get you there so easily without stress. Hit him up by email: PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM OR CALL +1 (409) 331-2269.
