French Phonics- PHRASES DÉCODABLES BUNDLE- Decoding Sentence Reading Bundle-SOR

By La trousse de Madame

French Decodable activities that align with the Science of Reading in the K-2 French classroom. Students work on their phonemic awareness, phonological awareness, decoding and encoding skills and as they master the target sound.

Make a few copies of each card and insert into clear pockets to create a quick and easy reading centre; arrange a table with four copies to create a quiet reading group; use one-on-one with your students to assess reading levels, to gain insights to their decoding skills, encoding skills, and to inform your upcoming lesson plans. Students use whiteboard markers to sound out each sound in the word, each syllable, or each word in the sentence. What a great way to build confidence! Whatever way you choose to use this resource, I am so grateful that you have given this item a try!

Who can use this resource:

Teachers who are just getting accustomed to using strategies from the Science of Reading can use these simple sentence strips to open up independent practice, small group evaluation, or up on a digital screen for whole group instruction and reading practice.

Make a set and send them home with students to build fluency in reading and confidence in reading strategies.

Sentences are designed to build a number of common French sounds and get more challenging as they go on.

Correction sheet is handy for use with a substitute as they can confidently assess students and command the lesson even when they are not assured of their French skills.

Science of Reading:

These cards are aligned with sounds being taught in any Science of Reading aligned curriculum. They are set up for student success based on the research for increasing reading fluency and building student confidence in the classroom!

Once you have established the strategies for identifying sounds, initial sounds, and blending sounds, segmenting sounds, students will be able to use these self-driven sentence strips on their own. What a great way to build learning autonomy!

What grade level:

I personally use these texts with Grade 1 and Grade 2 students in French Immersion. I feel confident that students from K-3 will find these most useful and teachers can come back to the texts with any students who may be experiencing challenges in their French reading skills. Core French teachers will be sure to add the resource to their repertoire for Grades 4 to 6 as they learn to read and write at the Junior level.

***1. French SOR Sound Cards

***2. French Decodable Reading

CVC Blending Cards - 85 Words with and without pictures

By Three Little Homeschoolers

CVC Cards in 7 different styles for differentiated learning. Let these cards grow with your students! 85 words covering short a, e, i, o, and u. Each word comes in 7 different styles including phonics dots and arrows, phonics dots, word only, and picture only. Almost 600 cards included! Laminate the picture only cards and have students create the CVC word with dry erase markers or letter manipulatives.

Cards are four to a page so that they're large enough to put up on the wall but still small enough for students to use easily. These are low prep...just print, cut and laminate. Please check out the preview above to see examples of the different card styles!

CVC Decodable Passages/Comprehension

By K3 Homeschool Foundations

Early readers need to read text that is decodable! If your child is working on reading CVC words and high-frequency words these passages are perfect! When they read a decodable reader it gives them confidence in reading stories and it helps them practice the phonics skill they are working on! These decodable passages have two options. One is scaffolded so that they can practice reading the words in isolation that they will see in the text. Tip-you can highlight the CVC words and high-frequency words they read in isolation in the text.

Included:

10 vowel-specific passages

8 Mixed vowel passages

Comprehension for all stories

Scaffolded Passage and Regular Passage
