    Mentor sentences model writing through excellent sentences from your favorite read-aloud books! This set is just what you need to implement some spring mentor sentences in your Kindergarten classroom. I created these with kindergartners in mind, but they would also be appropriate for early emergent readers in first grade, or even ELL students!

    These mentor sentences are part of a balanced literacy approach. Students will listen to you read the mentor text, identify/notice letters, words, and parts of a sentence, read the words of the mentor sentence, arrange the words to re-form the sentence, learn 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. Your emergent readers WILL BE reading AND writing every week!

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

    *****************************************************************************
    WHAT’S INCLUDED?

    The lessons in this mini-unit are meant for the spring months later in the year, so the difficulty is higher than the previous sets.

    I walk you through each day’s lesson for 5 weeks- all the work is done! Each lesson includes the teacher sentence page, directions/guidance for each day for the teacher, the student sentence page with words out of order (students cut and glue them back in order), vocabulary picture clue word cards (when applicable) in color and black and white, the student imitation page, and a class book cover in color and black and white.

    Please download the preview file to see the layout!

    There are lessons for the following five books:

    The Reason for a Flower by Ruth Heller
    (animals that drink nectar)

    Waiting for Wings by Lois Ehlert
    (butterfly life cycle)

    There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Chick! by Lucille Colandro
    (Easter)

    Hurray for Spring! by Patricia Hubbell
    (things to do in spring)

    The Caterpillar and the Polliwog by Jack Kent
    (animal babies) *with dialogue

    As a former first grade teacher, I used to LOVE reading these books, so I know many of you do, too! They are definitely some of my favorites. I chose books that would be in most personal libraries or school media centers.

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

    Get a full ten weeks of mentor sentences for early emergent readers that can be used any time!

    There is also a set of Fall/Winter Holiday themed lessons and a set of Snowy Winter themed lessons!

    *****************************************************************************
    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 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.

    *****************************************************************************
    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.*
