This resource was created in order to help Speech Language Pathologists target initial phonemes at the word level.

The h-insertion trick can be an extremely helpful strategy to use when children are stuck at the isolation level of a sound. By producing /h/ after the initial sound, the child continues their air flow, making it easier to produce the following vowel. This helps them to eliminate the prior habit of producing the incorrect sound.

Find the Full H-Insertion Resource Here!

If you haven't tried /h/-insertion, download this FREEBIE and see it work it's magic!

H-Insertion can help target the following:

• Phonological Processes: prevocalic voicing, gliding, backing, fronting, stopping, deaffrication, labialization, denasalization, excessive nasal emissions, initial consonant deletion
• Motor planning and sound transitions for children with Childhood Apraxia of Speech
• Sound production for children with Dysarthria or weak articulatory musculature
• Myofunctional disorders including frontal lisp, lateral lisp, limited lip rounding
• Articulation disorders to target initial /b/, initial /k/, initial /d/, initial /f/, initial /g/, initial "j", initial /l/, initial /m/, initial /n/, initial /p/, initial /r/, initial /s/, initial /t/, initial /v/, initial /w/, initial "y", initial /z/

There are 33 coloring worksheets which focus on letter recognition and phonics, with a focus on beginning sounds. Pictures are simple to encourage students to color in the lines. Each page focuses on using and recognizing primary and secondary colors (red, blue, yellow, orange, green, purple, brown, and black). You can ask the child to trace the letter and word on the top of the page.

Introduction to Wordle! This is a print and go activity with multiple levels as students develop skills. The playing mats can be reprinted and used again and again as so many different words can be created.

Begin with 3 letter words -

Level 1 - Students can use the alphabet to guess letters in your chosen word. You will mark (red, yellow or green) once students have guessed.

Level 2: Students will use a letter bank (10 letters) to make CVC words. You will again mark the students guesses.

Wordle mats with 4 letter words -

Level 1 - Students can use the alphabet to guess letters in your chosen word. You will mark (red, yellow or green) once students have guessed. (These are great for digraph, or consonant blend practice!)

Level 2: Students will use a letter bank (12 letters) to make 4 letter words. You will again mark the students guesses.

Wordle mats with 5 letter words -

Level 1 - Students can use the alphabet to guess letters in your chosen word. You will mark (red, yellow or green) once students have guessed.

Level 2: Students will use a letter bank (12 letters) to make 5 letter words. You will again mark the students guesses.

Have fun!!

Make sure to note:

This is for ONE Bible Story Decodable reader resource. Others are /will be listed separately in my store.

For most decodable readers the writer can ‘make up’ a story by choosing from only these types of words. However, to accurately tell the Bible story, I had to use a few sight words and Bible vocabulary.

These are not meant to be in-depth Bible lessons. These are meant to support your reading program, integrating the Bible into early learning!

**Letter Sound Fluency Strips**

This low prep activity gives students a quick and engaging way to practice and improve their letter sound fluency. Students point to colorful pictures one at a time as they say the letter sounds on them. They can use the same strips repeatedly and work to increase their speed.

You can find more activities just like this in my Letter Sound Fluency BUNDLE.

**Letter Sound Fluency Tear Off Strips**

These low prep tear off strips bring a fun, active element to practicing letter sound fluency. My small group intervention students beg for this activity!

Display the colorful sheets of tear off strips around the room. Students tear off one strip at a time and practice the row of 10 letter sounds 3 times to increase fluency. Then they can read their strip for the teacher or a classmate before choosing another sheet to tear from.

You can find more activities just like this here.
