McGraw Hill Wonders Reading Series Focus Wall {4th Grade}

Set up your classroom focus wall or bulletin board with these McGraw Hill Wonders Reading Series posters. There are posters for almost everything you will be teaching each week to display for student reference including vocabulary words, genres, comprehension strategies, grammar skills and much much more! Students will easily be able to look at your focus wall to remember what skill they are learning that week, what their words for the week are, and the meanings with examples of the skills for the week. This can be a life saver if you are working in small groups and need something for them to reference when you aren't available.

Grades K-5 Available
 

***If you do not use the Wonders Program you can still use this packet and just exclude the spelling and vocab words. Check out the skills included below***

 

This bundle includes everything you need for your focus wall for the entire year.
