1st Grade Reading Assessment

This resource was created in order to help Speech Language Pathologists target initial phonemes at the word level. This resource includes a total of 40 pictured initial /h/ CV and CVC words to use the h-insertion trick during speech therapy sessions.

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.

*Can be paired with all initial sounds!*

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

Included in this resource:

• 40 CV + CVC Initial-H Word Task Cards/Visuals
• 1-page complete wordlist for each initial sound
• Consonant letter cards for visual cues

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/

Used in Mixed Groups!

Vocabulary: State meaning of words, along with synonyms and antonyms.

Wh- questions: Ask who, what, where, when, why questions about each word.

Sentence production: Elicit full sentences containing each elicited word.

** Perfect resource for Speech Therapy Observation**

If students are becoming bored with district mandated every day iReady lessons, introduce this fun tracker! Double-sided with a visual cue for "Reading" or "Math" students track lessons passed. They also track 100% pass lessons by coloring in a star.

Teachers can use this tool to implement a reward system based on lessons passed or stars colored. This is completely student initiated and gives them a visual reminder of goals to work toward.

Sticker, smelly spot, stamp, no matter what the prize, we all know our young learners love to work toward something! This resource is easy to use and will keep them focused on their iReady time while building good habits when working on technology based lessons.

French Sound Mats – Les voyelles

These activity mats were designed with the K-3 teacher in mind. As you introduce new sounds to your Kindergarten/Grade One students, you can use the image pages for students to show sound recognition and phonemic awareness before they are able to identify letters/graphemes. As students grow in confidence, you can add the element of identifying CV sounds or VC sounds containing the target sound. Each mat has 6 cards that will contain the target sound. Students choose the card they think is the correct one, and attach the card to the mat with Velcro dots. The third and final level is identifying the target sound inside a word. Students will need to decode sounds to correctly determine the 6 matching cards that go on the mat. This resource will grow with your students as their abilities grow.

How to prepare this resource:

Make a copy of each page and laminate the page

Cut out the activity mat (the part on the left side of the page) and the activity cards (12 cards per mat)

Insert all the materials into a plastic bag, zipper pouch, or activity basket and you have a brand new independent work station for your Science of Reading lesson!

Le vocabulaire inclus:

A

Alligator, papillon, avion, balle, ordinateur, sac

E

Requin, genou, renard, chevreuil, envelope, chenille

I

Île, midi, souris, igloo, nid, chenille, iguane, livre

O

What grade level:

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.

Would you like to be confident in knowing you will always have a way to collect the data you need for specific skills being taught?

• Words will never appear more than once on a probe!
• Lock the words using the LOCK button!

Fry Sight Words Checklists, Sight Words Flash Cards Bundle: 1st, 2nd, and 3rd 100
This comprehensive bundle offers a progressive approach to sight word mastery, comprising the first three sets of 100 Fry sight words.

Key Features
Each checklist within this bundle maintains a meticulous design with 9 columns per page, allowing educators to effectively track progress and conduct thorough assessments across multiple trials. Both full-color and black-and-white versions are included, ensuring adaptability to diverse printing needs, making them suitable for various classroom settings.

Focused Goal Setting
Empower your teaching objectives with precise IEP goal establishment tailored to each set of 100 Fry sight words. These checklists facilitate targeted and measurable learning objectives for enhanced sight word recognition.

Complementary Practice Tools
Accompanying these checklists are dedicated flashcards specifically designed for each set of 100 Fry sight words. These supplementary resources provide essential reinforcement and support for consistent and effective practice sessions.

Why This Bundle Matters
By combining the initial 300 Fry sight words, this bundle lays a solid foundation for advancing reading fluency, boosting language proficiency, and nurturing overall reading development. It's an indispensable resource for educators aiming to support students in their journey toward sight word mastery and improved literacy skills.

Advantages of Fry Words over Dolch Words The Fry Sight Words list is organized into 10 groups of 100 words each, covering the most frequently used words in writing. Starting with the initial 300 words in early education significantly boosts reading and comprehension skills. While Fry words aren't strictly tied to specific grades, they're usually introduced in sets of 100 words to support gradual sight word recognition. Here's a general guide for introducing these sets:

• First 100 Fry Words: Typically introduced in kindergarten and first grade.
• Second 100 Fry Words: Taught in first or second grade, reinforcing foundational words.
• Third 100 Fry Words: Added in second or third grade, including more complex words.
• Fourth 100 Fry Words: Introduced in third or fourth grade, advancing vocabulary.
• Fifth 100 Fry Words: Presented in fourth or fifth grade, offering more challenging words.

The 6th to 10th sets of 100 Fry words are usually introduced later, depending on the student's mastered words.
