Passing It Forward: Tips and Ideas To Get Your Kinder Students To A Mid-First Grade Level In Reading and Writing

I have had great luck in teaching my kindergarten students to read and write over the last few years.  I have had first grade teachers tell me that I am getting many of my kindergarten students to a mid first grade level and higher in the areas of reading and writing.  I would like to share some of the teaching strategies, methods, tips and ideas I have used to bring my students this far.  I would like to "Pass It Forward"  just as other teachers have passed on to me.
