    Thanks for all the great ideas, and centers for use in the classroom. I love all the phonics games. I am always looking for new games for my KGs to play to practice their reading skills.

    Previously, I was teaching 1st grade and used a LOT of your phonics materials. Now I am teaching math and my new favorite is the mystery series (sweater, dog, snowman). My kids are loving them!

    WOW, that’s a tough one to answer, but I think I appreciate the reading/pnonic games the most. Helps students practice reading/phonics in fun ways that support the skill we are learning.

    I don’t have a favorite of sorts because I love the resources that are shared, honestly! I use the bottle cap letters often, as well as the word families games. I’m stoked to have found the measuredmom and her Reading products. Very often I encourage my colleagues to follow you on your blog and on tpt.. #thanksaMil

    Which resources from The Measured Mom do you like or use the most? Hmmm… Well, I have really enjoyed all of the resources I have used from Measured Mom. Lately I have been using the early reading and math resources more often.

    I love the editable resources! As a special ed teacher, sometimes my students don’t yet have all the skills needed to play some of the premade games, so being able to edit them to fit their current skill set is really awesome!

    I love your reading activities that go with different vowel and phonics patterns. Whenever I am in need of some fun games or activities, I go to your website and always find the perfect thing. My students love your four in a row vowel games! Thank you for sharing so many of your great products for free!

    I love the picture sort for beginning sounds (with pictures). I have my kindies sort objects by their sounds and then followup with your picture sort (so that we move from actual objects to pictures). It’s something they love to do too!

    I use the alphabet resources and many, many of the phonics centers. I really love the newest product-the problem solving snowmen, too! I have used your materials and can’t imagine where I’d be if I hadn’t found them about five years ago while searching for literacy plans!

    I love all of the rhyming resources. But really, there are very few things I have found on here that I don’t love. They are so easy to use and also look appealing and not like I ripped it out of a 90’s math textbook. 🙂 Thank you for all that you do!

    i love your blog! I recently printed off a MLK day activity but I also love your upper and lowercase letter activities. Thank you for all the work that you put in to this! I taught for almost 10 years and then took 10 years “off” to stay home with my babies. Now I’m back and feel like a brand new teacher again. It’s so nice to be able to use some of your resources for my classroom.

    You have saved me so much time over the years and got me through my OCR 5 course to qualify as a specialist teacher my favourite resources are Roll a rhyme and roll a vowel I have boxes of laminated cards to use with counters and pegs to identify syllables or sounds . You make tutoring dyslexic pupils so much fun here’s to the next 6 years x

    I teach several ages and all levels of English language Learners in Israel, the kids particularly love the silly sentences where they have to put together funny sentences. Also the mini books of word families and blends are a bit hit in my classroom. The other day I changed the vowel family books to the next level (books 6-10). Immediately the kids asked if they could do another reading marathon and read the new books. They love putting stickers on the chart next to their name for each book they read.

    I started homeschool preschool with my son in July 2018. I’ve read and used lots of blogs throughout the last several months, but yours is one of the few that I have stuck with from the beginning of my journey! Since July, I’ve also started my own blog and have linked to yours. Some of my favorite resources that you offer are the My Mini Alphabet Flipbook. My son reads and adds a page to his flipbook each week! I also love your handwriting and alphabet printables. I love more than just those, but those things are what we are focusing on now. Thank you so much for offering so many freebies! I’m a single mom of three on a budget!

    I’ve been trying to help my 3rd grade son gain confidence. He’s not a testing kind of kid, Classwork is also a challenge for him.

    I of course appreciate the freebies, but having great quality materials on hand makes finding activities to help him so much easier.

    The Letter of the Week curriculum has been the *best* investment for our family. I homeschooled my daughter for preschool, and this curriculum worked wonderfully for us. I especially appreciate how Anna includes information both in the curriculum and on her blog on how activities looked differently for her various aged kids. I could easily adapt activities to include my two-year-old boy.

    I love all the different type of games: sight words and math, especially! I work with kids with diagnoses that make learning in a traditional setting difficult. Offering games to support their learning is a great way to firm up their skills in a way their active brains and bodies can tolerate!

    We literally use way too many of your resources to mention in term of favorites…. rhyme cards and short vowel worksheets come to mind as some of the most helpful when we were first learning how to read (both of my children LoVeD your rhyming cards), but really: your offerings absolutely became stepping stones in our journey to learning how to read. I all but abandoned the curriculum we were using and pieced my own technique together using many of your offerings; something my family is very grateful for. Congratulations on six years and blessings on many, many more <3

    I own so many of your resources, but my favorites are always those created with real photos.

    Anna,

    Congratulations on The Measured Mom’s birthday! Whether or not you had an idea of the route this site would take six years ago, I know undoubtedly you have helped and encouraged, not only children, but also many adults (like myself) to feel more confident in their teachings. To say I appreciate your hard work and resources you provide would be an understatement. You are a wonderful person whom I feel I’ve gained a friend through this mountainous journey of homeschooling (my also 6 year old!) simply because I am constantly turning to you for the answer or the right tool, a word of advice or encouragement or just some phenomenal free resources you so generously provide. I am so very grateful to have come across your site last year and will continue to spread the word! Congrats again, friend 😉

    Happy 6th birthday! I love the weekly emails with links to your freebies!

Also love the alphabet letters that my boys use bingo markers ( in Australia) to find them dot the correct capital and lowercase letter then colour in the picture!

We have numerous printed for on hand use. Thank you for all you do.

I so appreciate all of your hard work! I truly love everything you produce but especially reading games, phonics games, and math games. The fact that you make some editable is extra amazing! I have recommended your blog to several of my teacher friends and to my daughter and daughter-in-law who have young children. I always read your blog from beginning to end. You have a great way with words and it’s always entertaining! I love hearing about your family. Blessings to you!

    Happy Birthday! I have been using your resources for three years now and it is so difficult to say which is my favorite. I use your games as homework once a week. Each student takes one home (all laminated of course) and plays it with their family. Parents love this assignment. By the end of the school year they will have a collection of games to practice phonics and math all summer long. I love, love, love, you word family books. I use them all the time in teaching reading. Thank you for all your work and the excellent resources you share with us.

    I love so many of your resources, but this week I’m introducing your letter find sheets to my 4K students, so I’ll stay that one! Every year my students enjoy looking for letters and practicing kindergarten skills!

    I love the ABC resources and sight word games. By kids like the beginning sound sorting. The Syllable clips and syllable sorting are favorites within my classroom. I also like the sight word books.

    The number recognition activities and patterning activities are favorites as well.

    As a special education teacher, I find your sight word and number recognition resources very helpful. My students enjoy them and I love that I don’t have to reinvent the wheel do to speak! Thank you and HaPpY 6th Anniversary!

    Congratulations,
    Happy 6th Birthday. There is so much to like! I really like your games because they reinforce the phonics sound or the maths concept that is being worked on and the students love them. They don’t realise that they are working and learning! The games are such a good motivational tool too! Thank you for all of your work.

    Hi Anna,
    Congratulations on having a sixth anniversary! I love all your products! I used your learning to read resources for my daughter who is now 9 (year 4) and has a very high reading level since pre-primary. I studied Early Childhood/Primary Teaching and your resources helped with student placements. I particularly liked the guides on how to, games, match and sort activities etc. I recently bought the guided writing resource on encouraging writing (Pre-Primary to year 3 up) and have also enjoyed the letters/alphabet book ideas for Kindy/Child Care. I also like your take on maths making it ‘hands on’ and engaging. I don’t know how you do it all with a busy household and I take my hat off to you. May God continue to bless you and your family, may you work on this ‘Measured Mum’ website be profitable and bless you.
    Kindest regards,
    Marianne

    From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you for all of the free high quality resources you make available to teachers. As a new teacher to kindergarten, your site is my go-to place, and I can’t imagine how much money I would have spent without your help. My favorite products are the engaging resources that support phonological awareness. Thank you so much for your generosity. You’re really an angel.

    Congratulations on six years! Thank you for everything you do. You truly are helping us on our homeschooling journey! So far our absolute favorite is the card game for cvc words and the chart to mark real or silly words. My 4 year old loves it. I love anything that will make him a reader! We are currently using many of your activities. I also really appreciate the reading lists. They give me a place to start at the library and we always like the books you choose. Again, I just want to say thank you.

    Congratulations on 6 years! I love all your products but the ones that I have found the most helpful this year have been your phonic games. They have been so easy to use and so helpful. I teach multiple grades and at multiple schools so having the ability to target specific skills and transition quickly between groups without having to set up multiple activities has made my time for efficient. I can simply switch out the sheet in the sheet protector and I am good to go.

    Thank you for your amazing products.

    As a special education teacher, I know my students need lots of practice on letter identification, letter sounds, rhyming, and CVC words. the Measured Mom offers up quick and easy activities that are both effective and engaging for my students. I can often “print and play” with very little prep. This has been wonderful when I have multiple students needing practice on multiple skills. Thank-you!

    I love the self-checking/self-correcting literacy games! My learners who need extra practice can get that practice without being overly public about what they struggle with– being able to self-check and self-correct is a huge boost to their confidence and making it all the way through an activity and getting everything right is an even bigger one!

    I think I have been with you all 6 years. I started mostly using your beginning sound mats (and also got some of my coworkers using them.) I have used many of your reading resources, both free and have bought them as well. Most recently, I have used your number recognition activities. I work in Special Ed with 1-3 grade kids but their academic levels are more of pre-k to 1st grade. Thanks for all that you do to help us out. We are always looking for different ways to teach the basics. Every learner learns differently!

    I love all your resources! They are meticulously designed and created to suit the needs of learners. I use most of your resources that are related to early learning, especially the reading activities. The most useful and sought out resource was the ‘Book List’ you have created with various categories. I refer the lists quite often when choosing a book for the kids.

    My kinders love practicing beginning sounds with your beginning sound boards. I printed them and put them in plastic sleeves so they get to use wipe off markers and practice when they finish their other work. It’s helping expand some of their vocabulary as the pictures are a little different than the norm. I can’t wait to start with some of the other pages when we get to blends and other spelling patterns.

    I love everything I’ve found on this site but I think my favorite is the various clip cards. They are great activities for my students to do when they finish an assignment early or when we are short-staffed (I’m a special ed teacher with 4 para educators). The kids can do the cards independently with adults only needed for checking/helping to correct answers, so one adult can oversee several students. The variety of topics and skill levels of the cards ensure there is always something appropriate for each of my students.

I follow so much of your advice, even down to getting my daughter the Melissa and Doug shopping chart and subscribing to the Art Hub Youtube channel for myself.
    Thanks for what you do!

    As a Math Interventionist, your Number Work Pages have been favorites, approved by our Math Coach because of showing numbers different ways. I have used your products for years and always been impressed by them!

    I’m sure I already left you a post, but I wanted to let you know that the CVC activities for kindergarten came in handy for my daughter. She still goes back to them and asks to do them. I am now enjoying all you sight words activities. (And attempting to make them a fun spelling/writing activity.) Thank you for your hard work and for sharing it with us. ❤

    My child has enjoyed your sight words pages (trace, write, dot marker) and the color the chunk digraph. Thank you for offering this! It has made learning more fun. I really appreciate that you share so much and are so helpful. Thank you for ALL the freebies, too!

    I’ve really enjoyed the reading lists. And recently have been using sight word and phonics books with my kindergartener. She’s in public school, but so enthusiastic about reading. It’s been great to have more at her level to read at home.

    I use your book section the most, but honestly, there isn’t anything that you have posted on your website that I don’t find helpful in my job in the schools. As a speech language pathologist working in the schools, working with students from Kdg thru 7th grade, I find a use for almost everything you have highlighted and put on your website. Even the worksheets I have printed off and left with substitutes to use when I have not been here and they have worked out nicely!

THANK YOU!!!

    Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into this. I am a grammy who teaches my two year old grandson while he is with me during the day. His parents work and I decided to teach him here. Your page helps me with that! Thank you so much!

    Last year, I especially used phonics resources (taught first grade), this year I teach second and have been pulling from all of the resources you have available. I’ve had 2 students come in still learning their alphabet and was able to pull some of the things you had available quickly and easily to be able to reach these learners where they’re at.

    I love all of the wonderful things you produce and offer to us as freebies. I mostly use anything with word families. In addition, I have recommended your site to my daughter in law who is homeschooling her kindergartener. God bless you and Congrats on 6 years!

    Right now, I’m using many of your phonics products. I really appreciate how they focus on the reading part without a lot of writing. So many phonics products include such a large writing component, which is fine for my daughter, but not the best for my son. I also love the variety of activities for beginning readers!

    I love everything that you develop. I especially loved the holiday sweater problem solving activity. You empower me to do educational activities with my small children to get them ready for school, and I appreciate that.

    I love all of the resources that assist the vowels. I teach Kindergarten and it’s always something going on with the schedules and testing but one thing I can count on is a great short or long vowel resource from The Measured Mom. My students love the word sorts and the books. I think the books are their favorite because they’re confident in themselves after reading them!!! Thanks for helping to make teaching memorable for my kinder-babies!!!
