If your students are in the letter name sorts, Sorts #1-5 are picture sorts. If you would like the picture sorts, use the examples found on the disc that came with the teacher's manual. Otherwise you can start on sort #6 found on the U:drive.
If you are looking for a particular sort on the U:drive and cannot find it, please let Kara know. We will get it posted for you.
If you would like to observe Words Their Way in action, fourth graders do this every day at 1:20. We would be happy to find someone come and watch your class while you do the observation.
