__Interactive word wall: Word Wall –Library Pocket Cards__ Put your word up high so kids can see it. Then, place library pockets in a row at a lower level (these don't take up much space and can be placed side by side). Label each with a letter of the alphabet. When you make your word wall words, make two of each. Place one in the pocket for the letter, the other on the wall. If you are using prepared cards, just make the ones for the pockets on index cards. With this system, the kids can look at the words on the wall and find the word in the correct pocket when they need to have it to do their own writing.
