**This is the chapter slice "Sentence Completion" from the full lesson plan "High-Frequency Sight Words"** Increase sight word recognition, vocabulary and comprehension as you help your students identify 130 sight words using real life pictures as an aid. Sight words are words that must become automatically recognized by the reader because they are often not pronounced or spelled in regular ways. We include the 100 high-frequency words that make almost 50 percent of everything that we read as adults having a bank of high frequency words is essential to building fluent reading skills. As students begin to read and build their sight word knowledge, they will build a bank of known vocabulary words that will aid them in beginning to read and spell. Boxes are used to help students come to understand that words can be recognized by the shapes of their letters, as they contain small, tall or hanging letters. Color graphic organizers and a comprehension quiz are included. All of our content meets the Common Core State Standards and are written to Bloom's Taxonomy.

Nathaniel Branden's book is the culmination of a lifetime of clinical practice and study, already hailed in its hardcover edition as a classic and the most significant work on the topic. Immense in scope and vision and filled with insight into human motivation and behavior, The Six Pillars Of Self-Esteem is essential reading for anyone with a personal or professional interest in self-esteem. The book demonstrates compellingly why self-esteem is basic to psychological health, achievement, personal happiness, and positive relationships. Branden introduces the six pillars-six action-based practices for daily living that provide the foundation for self-esteem-and explores the central importance of self-esteem in five areas: the workplace, parenting, education, psychotherapy, and the culture at large. The work provides concrete guidelines for teachers, parents, managers, and therapists who are responsible for developing the self-esteem of others. And it shows why-in today's chaotic and competitive world-self-esteem is fundamental to our personal and professional power.

**This is the chapter slice "Sentence Completion" from the full lesson plan "High-Frequency Picture Words"** Increase vocabulary, sight word recognition and comprehension as you help your students identify 120 common nouns using real life pictures as an aid. Picture associations will aid young readers in developing anchor words to increase their oral and written language. We also highlight high frequency words which encourage beginning skills for reading. As students begin to read and build their picture word knowledge, they will build a bank of known vocabulary words that will aid them in beginning to read and spell. Many of these picture words can be used to help spell similar words by analogy. Boxes are used to help students come to understand that words can be recognized by the shapes of their letters, as they contain small, tall or hanging letters.
