I love these decodable sentence building worksheets because they provide students with writing, reading, cutting, coloring, and a gluing task. Each worksheet is formatted the same, so teach your students the directions once, and they can complete the task in the future!

Students will work on decoding, sentence structure, handwriting, writing, fine motor, AND high-frequency words. That’s pretty good, am I right?!

These worksheets feature some high frequency words, including the, we, will, he, she, I, is, in it, am, be, and, on, and a. Besides these words, the worksheets use entirely decodable CVC words. CVC words are words made up of a consonant, vowel, consonant. They all feature a short vowel sound.

CVC words are some of the first words that students learn to read because they tend to follow the phonetic rules, can be sounded out in three steps, and always have a short vowel sound. Students will also get fine motor practice with cutting, coloring, and gluing to complete the worksheet.

I think when a TpT seller is struggling with sales I think when a TpT seller is struggling with sales, they assign blame to their catalogue of products. 
“Maybe I don’t have enough?”

You probably have plenty of products. But you may have a visibility problem which means that they aren’t being seen. 

Check your data to see if you’re struggling with views across your store.

SEO is a great step! In some niches, that’s enough. 

However, in competitive ones, marketing is also necessary.

If you’d like to learn how to market on Pinterest, there’s only a few days left where Terrific Pinning open!

Do you want to make more money on TpT? Sell more Do you want to make more money on TpT? 
Sell more units by getting more views.
SEO and marketing are the way to go 👏🏻

Agree? Do you have any questions?

#tptseller #tptsellertips #tptsellertipsandadvice #teacherpreneur #teacherspayteachers
Does how many TpT followers you have matter? Does Does how many TpT followers you have matter? 
Does how long you’ve been selling impact anything?
Does how many products you have predict success?

No. You can succeed on TPT whether you’re a new or a veteran seller, whether you have 100 products or 500 products, whether you have 1000 followers or 10,000 followers. 

None of that is the predictor of your earnings. 

So what is? It’s views. 

If you have a view problem in your store and you get consistently low views across your resources, you’re going to sell less units, and therefore make less money. It’s a simple as that! 

If you want to make more sales, increase your views.

SEO, covers, and marketing are the things that will help here.

If you’d like to learn how to use Pinterest, my best selling Pinterest course for TPT sellers, Terrific Pinning, is open for a few more days! 

Tell me, do you think you have a view problem in your store?

Product creation matters. Optimization matters. Product creation matters. 
Optimization matters. 
Marketing matters too. 

All three go hand-in-hand to create a successful business. 

If your store is lacking in views, perhaps you are relying too much on product creation. 

Making another product is not always the answer. 
Even if a new product does well, it’s not going to make the rest of your store suddenly sell.

Sometimes you need to get eyes on the products you already have.

Terrific Pinning is open this week if you’d like to learn how to use Pinterest to get more eyes on your store :)

Tell me, are you guilty of the top part of the screen? Churning out another product and hoping things change?

Food for thought! So, product creation is essent Food for thought! 

So, product creation is essential. 
But so is optimization and marketing

You need to create quality products…but you also need to get them seen. 

Just a reminder that Terrific Pinning is open this week if you are interested in learning about Pinterest for marketing!

Product creation is important! It should be your p Product creation is important! It should be your priority when you are a brand new seller and it should continue to be something that you spend time on as you grow. 

However, the problem comes when sellers have lots of products but are struggling with their sales and think that churning out another product is going to magically fix it. 

Spoiler alert – it’s not! 

Even if by luck, that product suddenly does well, it’s not going to make the rest of the products in your store start selling. 

There’s a big problem to fix and it’s often that you aren’t getting views. You’re not ranking high enough on TpT.

Search engine optimization is the first line of defense and it’s something that’s really, really important. But it doesn’t work wonders in over saturated and competitive niches. 

Once you’ve done all the SEO you can, you have to bring your own traffic! This is where marketing comes in.

I don’t recommend overwhelming yourself with multiple platforms. One is a great place to start. 

If you were to start marketing, where do you think the best place is?
