My newest TpT product!  Scrabble Letters I love word games and students do to. Especially when they are fun and manipulative. #elemchat #spedchat #literacy #scrabble Teachers create awesome educational games, centers, and bulletin boards and these Scrabble Letters will be a great addition to your creations.  Just print on card stock, laminate, cut and you’re ready to go! Four sizes included…1 1/2”, 2”, 3” and 4” I love that Scrabble Letters also have point values. Lots of ways to combine literacy and math. Here are some examples you can use in the classroom. Ask students to spell vocabulary/spelling words with Scrabble Letters. Next they can add up the totals and find out the value of each word.  Or take the highest and lowest word values and subtract to find the difference. What about having the students multiply the two highest values? It’s endless once you have the Scrabble Letters! Stop by my TpT store and check out my products and pick up a freebie too!

I’ve shared many different types of online “Fridge Magnets” before but this one is a little different. #elemchat #spedchat #Scrabbleletters #fridgemagnets It includes “Scrabble” type letters (as well as a few others). Educational Applications Have your students create a list of words (spelling, vocabulary, etc.) and then add up the value of each word. Love this online combination of literacy and math. Could be used as a center activity. Another idea would be for students to add up the letters of their own names or character names and see which one adds up to the most/least.
