Howdy! I am Mr. Greg from The Kindergarten Smorgasboard. My real name is Greg Smedley-Warren. I have been teaching for 11 years. I spent a year teaching fifth grade, two years in second grade and am now in my 9th year in Kindergarten. Kindergarten is my passion and my calling but honestly, that wasn’t how it started. When I was moved to Kindergarten (not voluntarily!) I called my mommy and cried. But on the first day, I fell in love and knew that Kindergarten is where I belonged. I have remained in Kindergarten ever since. I plan to never leave the classroom as the kids are what drive me to continue my growth as a teacher and person.

It would be nice if you could create individual lessons for each student but that is not realistic. Plus then some students would not get exposure to grade-level content. Here are some tips for differentiating your word study lessons. ❄️Use pictures to help your MLs build vocabulary. Many word study programs stop including pictures after students move on from vowels. For students learning English as an additional language including pictures for more advanced words can help build their vocabulary while they are learning to read and spell. ❄️Have some students focus on reading words with the target pattern and others practice spe
