DLC ELA Grade 1: Word Study Lessons (Word Families)

Included in this resource are video lessons that are good models of ways to explore the different word families. The accompanying handouts support and provide activities/practice for each family. Although the lessons often refer to the Cornerstones primary resource, the lessons are valuable for the introduction and use of word families in grade 1 ELA.
