Helping B and D Reversals (freebie included)

B and D reversals are something I see often in my students reading and writing. 


I've posted before {here} about some of the errors that I often see in struggling readers and how I correct the errors while reading {here}.

Today, I'm sharing with you some of the activities that I use to help students practice differentiating between the letters B and D. Sometimes it seems like my students really just need so much practice and lots of visual cues to help them out. 

B and D reversals and confusion are so common in beginning readers and writers. Here's some activities that I use to help correct these errors in my struggling readers.


I like to give my students consistency with how I describe the formation of B and D. I always use the sayings "bat before the ball" for B and "doughnut on a stick" for D. This helps my students remember what part of the letter they need to form first.

I keep some of these types of activities handy all the time. I can easily pull them out whenever we have a few extra minutes or if I just think my students need some more discrimination practice between the two letters.

One of my students favorite games is this B and D Zap! game that's a freebie in my store.

We play this game as a "speed" game. I set my timer for 3 minutes and students must quickly say the correct letter to keep a card. We try to do as many as we can in 3 minutes. There are special cards that students can pull, such as the Zap! card. The Zap! card means students must give all of their cards back to me. There is also a skip and reverse card to keep the game fun. My students love playing Zap!

  5. 4 years ago, I was freshly clean from heroin, and had just gotten out of jail, a state away from everything and everyone is ever known, only had the clothes on my back, an expired ID in an otherwise empty wallet, and was looking at a credit score around 520. Married, 2 years old, middle management at a fortune 50 Corp. Thanks to PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST who came as an angel for me and fixed my credit score within 5 days, negative items, credit card debt and hard inquiries has been removed and resolved and I’m happy now because it really helped my FICO score got increase to 819. I’m going to apply for an AMEX. It’s something I’ve wanted to get for years, a big goal I’ve been working towards, (that and buying a house). And I finally am comfortable enough with my score to pull the trigger on it. Thanks to PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST I’m really proud of them right now.
