Phonics: phonograms: Word Family -ay Activities for Centers, Group or Whole Class Work

(0)
This is a print-and-go learning center or whole class set for the “ay” word family. It includes: • -ay phonics read and color booklet – “Ray and Kay Play” • A 136 set of “ay” cards for Phonics Go Fish! • Two separate Readers Theater scripts – at two levels Learning word families (also known as phonograms) helps students read in “chunks”. Reading in “chucks” allows students to recognize different word patterns – or sections of a word, such as “ay”, rather than having to sound out each letter. For example, the –ay family includes play, say, stay, etc. Why are word families important? 1. When children begin to read, they sound out every letter. This breaks up the flow of the words, is extremely slow, and makes it difficult for them to transcend to reading comprehension. By learning families of words, children are able to read familiar patterns of letters quickly and fluently. 2. As children progress from simple to more complex words, the patterns, or chunks – continue to help them to decipher longer words. 3. Word families also help with spelling – as students are able to recognize spelling patterns and apply these to other words of the same family.

Sight Word “Go Fish” and "Concentration" Pre-K, K and 1st Word Lists

(0)
Sight Word “Go Fish” and Concentration These are engaging versions of Go Fish! and Concentration that use Dolch Sight Words rather than numbers for these fun and engaging games. The decks of cards are Dolch lists. This packet includes: Pre-K -40 words – 160 card deck K – 52 words -204 card deck 1st Grade – 41 words 204 card deck Go Fish First! This is an engaging version of Go Fish! that uses Sight Words rather than numbers rather than numbers. The decks of cards are Dolch lists. Copy cards on cardstock. (Avery 5271 Business Card template also works and makes cutting easier!) Laminate for durability. Each player gets five cards. If you are dealt four of a kind, or get four of a kind during game play, those cards are removed from your hand, and you get a point. Moving clockwise, players take turns asking a specific player for a given word card: “Do you have any “the”s? The person with the most packs of four at the end of the game wins. *Option: If you want to put backs on the cards – the last page can be used to copy the backside of each set. *Note: Mix and match the cards any way you wish. Some of the sets are large – break them up but be mindful of needing to keep “packs” of four together. The font is KG Behind These Hazel Eyes. I have paid for a license; however, since you are using this resource for your class and are printing the Word version – you may download the font for free. I chose this particular font because the “a”s are: a and easier for students to read. Concentration Rules Use the same cards as for Go Fish! Game Set Up: 1. Shuffle, or mix up, the cards well 2. Place each card face down in rows and columns Game Play 1. Each player takes a turn by turning two cards over. 2. If the cards match, then the player picks up the cards and keeps them 3. If they don't match, the player turns the cards back over Included: Pre-K Dolch Word Card Deck: 40 words – 160 cards K Dolch Word Card Deck: 52 words – 204 cards 1st Dolch Word Card Deck: 41 Words - 164 cards

RESOURCE !: Differentiated site word practice. Over 140 pages of site word printables -- These blackline masters help students learn site words by reading passages and writing sentences -- and then repeating the process. Site words are the most commonly used words in reading and writing and represent about 67% of words students encounter in daily text. These words are often grouped and learned by grade level. The site words contained herein are the first one hundred, plus essential words from subsequent lists designed to help struggling and early readers recognize them automatically. The following passages are great for increasing the fluency of beginning readers. They start out easy and become increasingly difficult, but not too difficult. The passages may be used as bell ringers, buddy work and homework practice, or all three, as research indicates that repeated reading of the same passage helps increase fluency. The passages are basic and enable students to read from simple to more complex sentences as they become more familiar with the particular site word around which each passage is written. Research also indicates that memorizing site words by list is less effective and less desirable than through authentic passage reading and writing exercises. The value of identifying and truly learning site words exists within reading practice and even phonics lessons (Farrell, Osenga and Hunter, 2013) that mimic genuine reading work. That’s why we’ve designed our worksheets to isolate each word, put it in a passage and then require students to think about the word as they write their own sentences and then go back and re-read what they wrote.
