The growing bundle is perfect for Pre-K and Kindergarten readers. The bundles also include appropriate math skills for each level.

Skills include math and literacy skills that start with Pre-K in the Level A bundle and end with proficient Kindergarten skills in the Level B bundle.

For example, the Set 1 skills pack includes the following skills perfect for Pre-K learners or to differentiate for struggling Kindergarten emergent readers.

  • counting to 5 (with a ten frame)
  • color identification
  • shape identification
  • AB patterns
  • big and small

By the end of Kindergarten, your students will be able to practice skills in the last set of the bundle.

  • Time to the hour

  • Counting by 5s

Your students will be excited to learn and grow their literacy and math skills with 100 digital skill cards from Pre-K to Kindergarten.

Use the format that works best for you and your learners!

Not all students may have access to technology at home during distance learning. That’s why the bundle includes different formats for your learners.

Printable worksheets, interactive PDFs, and Boom card options are all available for your learners. Whether you deliver learning packets to your students, share live lessons via Zoom or Google Meet online, or share interactive PDFs or Boom cards on your online learning platform, the different options will ensure every student gets something out of your instruction.

Each Pre-K and Kindergarten bundle includes five sets with ten skills, each available with Boom cards, interactive PDFs, and printable worksheets.

Foster independent learning!

Because the Made for Me literacy bundle now includes Boom cards, your learners can quickly self-check and correct while working independently at home.

In addition, you can also assign the digital task cards that individual students need to work on to differentiate instruction for struggling readers or those who have already mastered skills and standards. There is no need to create extension or remediation lessons for different groups. With 50 digital skill cards in each bundle, there are skills to practice for every student!

The Made for Literacy Boom cards (including interactive PDFs and printable worksheets) are perfect tools for distance learning! Try the Pre-K and Kindergarten bundles in your distance learning classroom or when you return to school!
