FREEBIE! Binder Labels for Phonics

Do you need help organizing your phonics resources? I (Whitney) organize my resources in two ways. 

1. FILE FOLDERS. 

I use hanging file folders that align to my reading program that are organized by unit and week. The file folders contain my reading program's lessons and text for the week.

2. PHONICS BINDERS. 

I love organizing supplemental phonics lessons and decodable text in binders. This allows me to pull other text when needed for Tier I and/or Tier II instruction. Because they are organized by the sound-spellings, it makes it easier to find what I need rather than having to remember what unit/week it was taught.

In my binders I keep any old reading program phonics lessons and decodable text I have saved, lessons and passages Angie and I have written, or any other decodable text resource I can find. Reading A-Z is a favorite.

I cleaned and reorganized my binders this past year, so I thought I would share my labels. Enjoy!
