The mega pack of task cards is great to use for literacy centers, small-group instruction, or during homeschooling.

Because the task cards are decodable, the words are carefully selected to ensure that they contain only the phonics patterns and sight words students have already learned so children can build fluency and confidence as they read and have ample opportunities to practice and reinforce their new skills.

And THAT means students will be able to complete the activities independently so you're freed up to work with your small reading groups.

Just print the cards, cut them apart, laminate for extra durability, and place each set in a task box for simple storage. The sets even includes task box labels to keep your collection organized and easy to find.

The science of reading has proven that teaching students to hear the sounds in words helps them learn to read more quickly. Since every speech sound has its own unique “recipe,” focusing in on the look and feel of the sound first helps students' brains create a mental file folder they can use to quickly connect the sound to the written letter later.

Swapping out your word wall for a sound wall helps students' brains make connections between the sounds they just do to something they can intentionally do. 

Whether it’s on your bulletin board or in an individual folder, the sound wall can be used for reference as you’re introducing new sounds to your whole class or in small groups. Students can refer back to the wall as they’re decoding texts or writing independently or in small groups.

The post Sound Maps appeared first on Playdough To Plato.

Old school lists like Dolch and Fry were sorted by the frequency words appear in text. For instance, THE is written most often so it’s the first words students practice. The philosophy isn’t terrible – if a child is going to read THE more than any other word, it makes sense that learning it first would come in handy.

The problem is that THE is often taught right alongside other words that follow completely different rules: OF, AND, A... And that means kids have to wrap their brain around:

- the short A sound in AND,
- the long A sound in A,
- the F that makes a V sound in OF,
- and (as if that wasn’t enough!) the two letters T & H that make just one sound in THE.

It’s no wonder that so many students struggle with sight word lists!

But there is a *much* easier way! Instead of sorting sight words by frequency, we can sort them by phonics skill. Then students can master one spelling rule at a time!

These print-and-go sheets make it so easy for you to do just that! They include the Dolch sight words through second grade, the first 200 Fry sight words, and the Zeno sight words.

"By far one of THE BEST Teachers Pay Teachers purchases I have made!" -Amy H. 

These 32 sight word games are EDITABLE making it easy for you to practice any word list under the sun: CVC words, CVCe words, beginning digraph words, diphthongs, vowel teams... the sky really is the limit!

Save Time

Just type your words on the getting started page and they automatically load into every activity so you can quickly print and play.

Save Money

Simply swap out the words when kids are ready to move on - there's no need to buy a new activity pack.

Easily Differentiate

Create duplicate versions of the same game using differentiated word lists. One group of students can practice 18 decodable short A words while another group of children works on the same activity but focuses on harder words.

You can even EDIT THE DIRECTIONS!

"How am I only finding this resource now?... As a French teacher, I so often find myself having to create my own resources or tweak English resources that I find. This amazing packet removes that headache! You have just saved me so much time, girlfriend. I can't say thank you enough!! :)" -BILINGUAL MINGLE
