Short o Word Blending| Blending Lines| Digital and Paper Options

By An Enchanted Educator

Looking for a way to help your students practice the skill of decoding? With blending lines, you can do just that. This quick no-prep digital or paper activity can have your students practicing decoding (sounding out) words in a snap. These blending lines are phonics focused and are great for whole-group or small-group learning. I’ve based these lists on Wiley Blevins’s suggestions for blending lines.

In this resource you will find:

3 different variations of blending lines for the phonics skill. Each variation offers a little change of words and a higher level of challenging words and sentences.

Each variation is offered in:

· digital

· paper, full sheet, with or without guides

· paper, double sheet, with or without guides.

As students are learning the 46 - 2nd grade sight words in this product, they will be provided with each word, an example of the word used in a sentence, and the opportunity to make up a sentence themselves using the word. I find that with my students who are Deaf/hard of hearing/ELL, when they make up sentences using each newly learned sight word, it helps them to remember how to spell the word, the meaning, and how it is used. My students love booklets of any kind that they can refer back to. Once they have come up with their sentences, they can include pictures that they print and cut out, draw pictures freehand, or find pictures in a magazine that they can add to each page of the 2nd grade sight word booklet that matches each sentence they come up with. This gives students the opportunity to connect what they are learning about in the classroom with their own personal interests. This booklet is perfect for students that are on grade level as well as students who require instructional information to be adapted.

If you are interested in the product above, the sight word checklist may be of interest to you as well.
