These Short Vowel Centers Are Zero Prep!

Pulling together your literacy centers doesn’t get much simpler than this…

Just pick one of the sheets you would like to use with your students and print enough copies for each student to have one.

Make sure everyone has a pair of scissors and a playing die and you are ready to go!

How to Play the Short Vowel Centers

To play, students will cut along the dashed lines of their sheet to create cutting strips. (Each side of the die will have its own strip of words – the column for number one will be a strip, the number two column will be a strip, etc.)

Then kids will roll their playing die, read the matching word, and cut off that bottom slice.

For instance, if students rolled a one, they would look at their one strip and find the word at the bottom of the column: jam.

They would read that word out loud and then snip it off before rolling again.

Play continues until one of the columns is snipped right up to the top!
