Sorry Day Literacy Bundle ✍️🖤💛❤️

This comprehensive Sorry Day Bundle is designed to support students’ understanding of National Sorry Day while building their literacy skills through vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension—all in a respectful, thoughtful, and accessible way.

What’s Included:

🗣️ Vocabulary PowerPoint – Aligned with the vocabulary found in the fluency passages, this resource breaks down words step-by-step into phonemes, graphemes, consonants, vowels (long and short), and syllables. It also includes morphology and etymology notes in the teacher guide.

Did you know? The word "Aboriginal" is a compound word—"ab-" meaning from or away, and "original", meaning first or from the beginning. Together, they describe the first peoples of a place.

Students at every reading level can participate in rich, inclusive discussions around the meaning and importance of Sorry Day.

📖 Comprehension Questions – A single set of thoughtful, discussion-based questions designed to work across all levels, making group or whole-class conversations easy and meaningful.
