There are 20 pages in all with themes that can be used throughout the year. I've often used them for my "fast-finishers" and have differentiated them in the following ways:

Students write words with the same beginning sound (I have them write as many as they can fit on the line!) &/or students write a specified part of speech with the same beginning sound (i.e.: using only adjectives).

It's also fun to have students create their own using a word of their choice or their name (they LOVE that!).

Enjoy & keep cool - it's going to be another 100 degree day here!!
