Our district closed school today and I am blessed with a work day to try to

We had a staff development day yesterday and I spent the majority of the day working on English Language Arts assessments that align to the Common Core State Standards AND our report card standards. I only completed 1.RL.1 and 1.RIT.1 and even after completing those assessment I still feel like I need more. I have two assessments for both standards, but that is not enough for the whole school year. Does anyone know of any good TpT products that could help me? I would create them all myself if I had more time, but time is ticking fast and I need them ASAP.
I have been busy making my math fact assessment packets more presentable to be sold on TpT. I have created a math facts program for my first graders and I have been soooooo impressed how well they are impoving! I have collected math fact data in our school for a number of years and EVERY year we have the same results!! It was so frustrating so I decided to create a math fact program that builds on the skills and strategies needed to be successful in math facts. This is not a "drill and kill" math fact program, but one that works on skip counting not only forwards, but backwards as well to help build the dreaded subtraction skills. I also teach BOTH addition and subtraction at the same time to help students see the patterns between the two functions.
I only have the + 2/- 2 and the +5/-5 math fact packets posted and will soon have the +10/-10 off the decade. I am in the works with the +0/-0 and +1/-1 packet. All packets include a weekly lesson plan that you could use in your classroom as well as a chart for progress monitoring.
I am having a SALE in TpT! I am extending my sale on all my sight word packets until Thursday. I created three separate Dolch sight word packets (pre-primer, primer, and first grade sight words). I created each packet as a sight word program. There is consistency between the packets, but I also varied the lessons in each packet so your students do not get bored doing the same activities. Here are the links:
Included in this packet:
* Weekly word lists that can be sent home with students to practice 10 words each week.
* I Have Who Has game for each of the 4 weeks.
* Roll, Read, and Record along with sight word lists and an option of using spinners if dice is not an option for you in your classroom.
* Weekly sight word booklets for each of the 4 weeks that practice on recognizing how the word is spelled, writing a sentence using that word, and practicing each word in a variety of fun ways.
*Sight word flashcards for your students to practice at school and home.
* Weekly word lists that can be sent home with students to practice 10 words each week.
* I Have Who Has game for each of the 4 weeks.
* Roll, Read, and Record along with sight word lists and an option of using spinners if dice is not an option for you in your classroom.
* Weekly sight word booklets for each of the 4 weeks that practice on recognizing how the word is spelled, writing a sentence using that word, and practicing each word in a variety of fun ways.
*Sight word flashcards for your students to practice at school and home.
Included in this 140 page packet:*Weekly word list for each of the five weeks to practice at school and at home.
*Weekly speed read sheets that students can practice at home or at school.
*Weekly sight word booklets that focus on spelling, identifying, and writing a sentence using each word.
Included in the 125 pages are:
*Weekly sight words for students to practice at school and at home.
*Weekly speed read sheets that students practice at home to work on reading each of the 10 weekly sight words.
*Weekly sight word booklets that work on spelling, identifying, and writing a sentence using each word.
