Differentiation: Auditory: Students will be given the opportunity to listen to the short vowel words and hear how the one syllable words make rhyming patterns in the reading.
Visual: The students will be able to visualize the rhyming words when placed on the whiteboard and can identify the similarities between each short vowel word.
Tactile: Students who learn best tactilely will benefit from the use of hands-on materials, such as letter blocks and tiles to form the rhyming words.
Kinesthetic: Students will have bigger letter blocks to form the short vowel words and can physically move each block around to form the correct letter pattern.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

3. Who are our kids? We know that there are complex issues affecting students. Our students have diverse backgrounds and varied levels of reading readiness. Students may learn best through varied modalities and are interested mainly in having fun!
4.
5.
6. Howcan we meet our endless demands? We will look at some activities that include music and art to engage students and increase interest in learning sight words. But before we do, it’s always a good idea to include…..
7.
8. For arousal: music either increases or decreases the attentional neurotransmitters ; can be used to relax or increase reading ability and comprehension
12. Music also creates an environment that is conducive to learning.
13. It can reduce stress, increase interest, and set the stage for listening and learning.
14. The similarities between literacy acquisition and musical development are many.
15.
16. Observations from then and later on: I noticed that music calmed the students. Even though they would get loud and silly during some of the songs, music eased many of the ELL student’s fears about participating ( they would sing but often not raise their hand to share)
17. I began writing! I wrote songs to the sight words included in my district’s state adopted Language Arts curriculum: HM I also wrote to include words that were frequently used in writing and that students would want to be able to write, such as “because.”
18. I began using them! I made big books and started using them in my class. I also sent the manuscript off to Scholastic in Dec. 2004. Many students who struggled with visually learning the words were able to access the learning through the melody and song. I shared with other teachers who loved the songs but didn’t want to sing without the music!
19. We Recorded Silly Songs With the help of my family: brothers, sisters, nieces, and nephews, we recorded the songs over the Christmas break, 2005. . Meet the Original Silly Singers!
20.
21. Use of pronouns like he/she and correct use of “because” helpful to EL learners
22.
23. In 2007, Scholastic contacted me And in November 2009 the revised edition with a new recording was released!
38. Creative Word Collage Copy a class quantity of an enlarged sight word Distribute the copies to children along with sheets of colored construction paper. Students cut a loose outline around the word, glue it to the center of the paper, and then print the sight word in each corner of their paper. They also can write a sentence with the word!
41. Mini-books Students can work on mini-books at center while listening to the song!
42. Kids love mini-books! These books are great for the student to take home and sing as well as sing with a reading buddy. Great for interpersonal learners who learn by sharing and teaching others.
43. Sight word Stickers Using return address labels or even masking tape, write the word in permanent marker on the label. Let the child wear the word home to practice and “teach” his/her family. The sticker encourages parents to ask the child what he/she is learning in class!
44. Ideas for “bumpy” words Use food coloring and rock salt to prepare little rocks to make bumpy words. Use a silver sharpie and write the sight word you are teaching on black paper. Let students outline the word with glue and sprinkle the salt on the glue.
45. Sight word Puzzles Use stencils or large font on computer to write out sight words. Laminate and cut out for students to put together as puzzles… Or .. Let students color and cut out and put back together as a puzzle.
46. Jigsaw sight words Buy blank puzzles available online through teacher supply catalogs . ( Discount school supply) You can write a sight word for each small puzzle or write a simple sight word sentence on a larger puzzle.
47.
48. Glitter glue words Use glitter glue to make more shiny bumpy words to post around the room. During center time, let students write the words using clipboards and encourage them ( while working with a partner) to feel the word with their eyes closed and try to guess the word.
50. Use Poster Maker to Enlarge Singing around the room during center time!
51. Sight word pointers Sight word pointers are easy to make! We spell the word to a conga beat and move around the room in a conga line 2 sides, using the word with a capital and lowercase initial letter improves visual recognition.
53. Write a sight word on each ping pong ball. You can play a hot potato game! Pass the ping pong balls around in the circle for a whole class activity game! You can use the balls during centers and let students pick one ball at a time and write each word on magna doodle. This makes a great activity for early finishers as well! Ping pong sight words
54. Bingo dot Sight Words she Use large outline of sight word Use yellow circle stickers on the outline of the word. Photocopy the word and there will be dots open. Students love To bingo dot the word and then write a sentence using the word!
55. Playdough Sight Words Laminate sight word page that has been printed in large outline format. ( Use same as template for puzzle) As a center activity let students use playdough to make the words!
56. Shaving cream sight words Every Friday we use shaving cream during our free choice literacy time. Even struggling writers can write sight words from the word wall. Students take turns choosing a word from the word wall. Students can even write short sentences! Many times they sing the song as they write!
57. Graph Sight Words For the students with an aptitude for math and logical/mathematical intelligence, have them count how many sight words on the word wall with 2 letters, 3 letters etc. They can also tally how many times they find the “sight word of the week” while looking at books. Many students also like to write the room; you can have them organize by # of letters.
