Word Wall Vocabulary Cards - TpT

Hello, hello!

It's back to school time here in Sweden and I've been hard at work on some new classroom supplies for my TpT store.

First of all, I've been updating all of my existing vocabulary cards for your word walls - check out the shiny prettiness:

Each word wall set typically includes at least 30 different words on a thematic topic; using a clear and easy to read font (Arial Black).  Each word is accompanied by a clip art image, typically in full colour or clear b&w line drawing.  Sets are colour coded so that you can quickly and easily tell them apart or know if a word has gotten mixed into the wrong set.  A clean and simple design makes these cards super easy to print, cut and laminate for repeated use.

These word wall cards are intended for lower primary students and they are especially useful for your EAL/ESL/ELA students who are learning English.  Keep them on the wall during thematic units or year round or use them in specific lessons for vocabulary building and writing support.

All Star Dad Card

Hello, hello!

If you follow my blog, you may recall that I've been behind in my card-making a lot this year, such as when I finally made my mum's Mother's Day card not in May but in July (and confession time - I've only just posted it end of October - eek!).  So, not to disappoint my step-father but his Father's Day card has similarly been enormously delayed but it was totally worth it because I'm thrilled with the design!

All Start Dad

You'll never believe this but the inspiration for this card came to me while I was out for a morning jog.  I'd been struggling with what sort of theme to use for this year's Father's Day card and then remembered that I'd bought some of October Afternoon's gorgeous Apple Cider line and the colours would work nicely for a masculine card.

I also picked up the puffy stickers for the line (which, btw, are absolutely gorgeous) - except that several of them are American football-themed and not something I would ever use.  But they would be perfect for a Father's Day card...  Now if only there was an awesome retro TV set included somewhere in the line and as luck would have it, there was the perfect TV card in the do-dads pack.  Score!  I even used up a bit of scrap OA Woodland Park paper with a retro picture story design on it in the layering.

Finally, I got to the sentiment, which I hadn't thought about at all by this point.  I knew I wanted something sports-themed and eventually landed on the obvious: all star dad.  This mix of Bella Blvd. letter stickers and Amy Tan Thickers layered up worked perfectly.  There are just some cards that come together so easily and are a joy to create and this was without a doubt one of them.
