Reading Refresher

I have decided to revamp the way I am doing reading with my class.  I have been all over the internet searching for things that work, good practices, and activities to try.  I saw where the fabulous Ms. Durbin has been using keyboards in her classroom as a way for her kids to 'type' their words.  I LOVED that idea and of course had to steal it :)  I went to the school's computer teacher yesterday and told her that if she happened to come across any keyboards that were broken or unusable, to send them my way.  She looked at me kind of funny and then pulled out a huge tub of keyboards she was loading up for the dump!!!  So, I am now the proud owner of several keyboards that will be used in my class to help with word work.  I have decided to use this weekend as a sort of reading pinterest party where I am making all kinds of fun things that I will use in my room.  Hopefully I can get several things made.  I'll post pics when i'm done. 

What kinds of things do you do for reading, phonics, spelling, and writing in your classroom?  I'd LOVE to hear about them!!
