5 worksheets, one for each vowel sound (a, e, i, o, u). The worksheets contain a large letter showing the vowel sound and then lots of pictures, children need to circle the pictures that have the correct corresponding vowel sound in the middle of the word.

Why do you need this?

Understanding short vowel sounds is fundamental to strong literacy skills, it lays the foundation for their early literacy skills and paves the way for successful reading and spelling. The ability to recognize and differentiate between short vowel sounds helps children sound out words, enabling them to read new and unfamiliar words with accuracy.

How and when might you use this?

These five worksheets immerse students in focused short vowel recognition using visuals and interactive searching tasks. Isolating each sound, a, e, i, o and u, through pictures and circling deepens early literacy abilities.

These worksheets can be used in a variety of ways:

· During small group phonics sessions

· Independent work stations or literacy centers

· Homework practice

· Guided reading groups

· Morning work

· Reading interventions for children who need additional support

· Whole class instruction

Meaningful vocabulary:

I created these worksheets to allow students to use to context clues to find the meaning of unknown words. Students will find the given words within the novel "A Christmas Carol" and record the sentence in which the word can be found. Page numbers are provided to help with locating words. (Stave 2-5)

Students have the option to discuss the meaning of the words. They can either look up the meaning of the word or use context clues to define the words on their own.

I had the students complete these sheets after reading the section of the book, therefore the page numbers were helpful.

What's included:

• Worksheets for each of the five staves of "A Christmas Carol".

How is the product useful:

• Low prep for teacher.
• Page numbers guide students to finding the words within the text.

This is a fun analogy page that you can do during Valentine's Day or any other day. The students will find the relationship between the words and fill in the missing analogy. Then they will create their own.
