    Mentor sentences model writing through excellent sentences from your favorite read-aloud books! This bundle is just what you need to implement mentor sentences in your Kindergarten or First Grade classroom. I created these with emergent readers of K & 1 in mind, but they would also be appropriate for ELL students!

    These mentor sentences are part of a balanced literacy approach. Students will listen to you read the mentor text, identify/notice words, punctuation, and parts of a sentence, read the words of the mentor sentence, arrange the words to re-form the sentence, learn about a part of speech and talk about other words that could fit into the sentence, imitate the sentence by writing in their own words, read their sentence, illustrate their sentence, and even create a class book that can be read over and over again. There is also a “quiz” for each week over the skill you worked on. Your emergent readers WILL BE reading AND writing every week!

    Not familiar with mentor sentences? Read all about them here!

    If you need more proof that the numerous volumes of mentor sentence curricula created by Ideas by Jivey are a best practice in the classroom, download the case study! The download presents the data collected over the 2016-2017 school year in the form of a case study.

    **Watch a video of Mentor Sentences in ACTION with ELL students in Kindergarten!**

    *****************************************************************************
    WHAT ELSE DO I NEED?

    Grab the NONFICTION Animal Mentor Sentence Pack!

    Do you do an author study of Robert Munsch?
    Check out the Robert Munsch Mentor Sentences Mini-Unit!

    Do you do an author study of Kevin Henkes?
    Check out the Kevin Henkes Mentor Sentences Mini-Unit!

    You’ll also love to use these mentor texts in reading and writing, too! Make sure to get BETTER THAN BASAL: Complete NO PREP Reading & Writing Units for 40 Popular Mentor Texts!

    *****************************************************************************
    DO YOU LOVE TO SAVE MONEY?
    Do you already have the first set? You can buy just the second, third, and fourth units in a bundle.

    There is a BIG bundle with all Emergent K-1 Mentor Sentences, Interactive Activities, and Reading and Writing activities for all 40 books! Check out the Biggest and BEST Bundle for K-1 (Emergent)!

    You can also choose to buy all 40 weeks of Mentor Sentences in a Hard Copy Book, which will also come with the digital version!

    Don’t forget to download this Bonus Lesson for the book, The Snow Globe Family!

    *****************************************************************************
    HELP ME PLAN!
    You don’t need to do all of the mentor sentence lessons in the order they come in the units. When I created the numbered units, I put them in an order that progressed in difficulty, so these lessons spiral, but it is not necessary to stay in that order. The seasonal unit was created with holiday-themed books that can be used throughout the year.

    There is a free download of the “At-A-Glance” for all 40 books in the Emergent K-1 sets! This download will help you see all of the skills covered in the units if you’d like to “bounce around” within the units.

    *****************************************************************************
    WHAT ABOUT OTHER GRADE LEVELS?

    Mentor Sentences can be done in ALL grades! Please tell your teacher friends about mentor sentences for their grade:
    Kindergarten & ELL (Early Emergent Readers)
    First Grade
    Second Grade
    There are three volumes for grades 3-5 to help prevent repetition of mentor sentence lessons among grades in the same school.
    Check out what’s in Volume 1!
    Check out what’s in Volume 2!
    Check out what’s in Volume 3!

    *****************************************************************************
    Please remember, this purchase is for the use of one teacher. It is not intended to be shared. Please use the ‘additional license’ purchase if more than one teacher will be using it. Thank you!

    *The mentor sentence lessons I have created are adapted from the ideas of Jeff Anderson. These lessons were born from the routine that worked well in my classroom, and the demos and examples I present are variations of Jeff Anderson’s methods. This is not the only way to “do” mentor sentences in your classroom.*

    When do YOU teach grammar? 🤓 📓If you're usi When do YOU teach grammar? 🤓

📓If you're using the #mentorsentences routine, I suggest beginning your writing time with it! You want grammar and language to be directly connected to their writing.

This also helps get students into a writing frame of mind, and often gives them a purpose for writing that day! ✏️

    🔍Research has proven that #vocabulary words mus 🔍Research has proven that #vocabulary words must be presented in context for proper comprehension.

📖That means... throw out the word lists for kids to look up in a dictionary and memorize the definition!!!

📚Picture books are vital – yes, even in the upper grades – to allow students to use the images to help with context and infer the meaning of words. One way to present vocabulary words effectively is to teach through texts you are already using for other lessons!
