$10 - $20 1st Grade Phonics Resources (by date, oldest first)

Guess Who Sight Word Edition and Guess Who Vowel Pairs Edition

Learning to read is not something that happens overnight! It takes a lot of practice and persistence! Learning to read seems complicated but the top skills children need are phonemic awareness, decoding, orthographic mapping, fluency skills, comprehension, and lots of persistence and practice! These lessons have all of these skills needed! I give some tips and tricks on how to make it hands-on! These lessons are quick and easy to implement! There is no prep needed. Print and get to work! These work well for your intervention groups or you can hand it to an aide with no extra work from you!

Included:

28 Lessons

Fluency Skills-accuracy, rate, and expression

Phonemic Awareness (CVC words)

Reading CVC Words (blending sounds without sounding out loud)

Spelling CVC Words (orthographic mapping)

High-Frequency Words (most frequently used-orthographic mapping)

Decodable CVC Passages (Scaffolded-one has the sounds, words, and high-frequency words they will see in the passage so they can practice these words in isolation before reading)

This bundle will help you identify your child's ability in identifying letter names and sounds, writing letters, and reading and spelling with the six syllable types.

The science of reading identifies how important it is to be able to read and spell using all six syllable types. When we can read and spell with the syllable types it makes reading and spelling multisyllabic words easier.

My product includes:

• Instructions for use
• Letter names of uppercase and lowercase letters
• Letter sounds for all 26 letters
• Vowel sounds; long and short
• Real and nonsense words with all six syllable types
• All 107 Zeno words
• Spelling with all six syllable types
• Grading rubrics
• Google Data Sheet-color-coded scores so you can easily see where your student's holes are. Easily track growth, use for RTI, small group interventions, and/or progress monitoring!

Buy the bundle and you get one assessment free!

These are perfect for small-group instruction or centers! Slide them in sheet protectors or laminate and you can reuse them! You can print these cards double-sided (on the short side) so that students can self-correct!

This creates meaning for words that follow the phonics pattern they are learning. This is important in helping the child turn these words into sight words!

ALL my letter resources are in one place! This is a great deal! You get multiple resources for free by bundling them together! Over 163 pages to practice letters!

In this bundle there will be many resources to practice:

• First Sound Fluency
• Letter Naming
• Letter Sounds
• Letter Formation
• Letter Recognition in text
• Color by Code/Upper and Lowercase

There are many NO PREP resources, hands-on activities, and tips and tricks on different ways to use the resources!

Let's be honest, phonemic awareness can be SO boring for our students! Whenever we are working on it they want to use the words in sentences or want to see a picture of what that word means! Now they have a picture to connect to the word!

These cards are so much fun my students beg me to work with them! I let them choose their manipulative; whether it is play-dough to tap, legos, chips, or blocks! This also gives those kiddos struggling with blending and segmenting a concrete method to gain those skills!

This bundle allows you to choose the skill that you need for each group you are working with!

-Includes

-CVC Vowels; a,e,i,o,u

-VCe Vowels;

-Digraphs; ch,sh,th,wh,ck,ph,wr,kn

-Vowels; ar,or,er,ur,ir
