This set is the perfect addition to any literacy or writing center and can be used for teacher and student led activities in many different ways!

  • Spelling and writing practice

Why real pictures?

Help students make connections to the world around them. When we provide materials and resources with real pictures versus drawing and clip-art, there leaves little to no room for error.

While clip-art and illustrations can be fun and useful, they have a place. Allow your students to view real life pictures to reference and to help make connections!

There is no mistaking what these images depict making it easier for our young learners to decode the CVC words!

Also Available for Purchase:

Short A CVC Cards

Purchase suggestion:

These Elkonin Magnetic Boxes are a favorite in my classroom and the perfect compliment to these or any CVC cards!

Frog and Toad Are Friends - poke cards

By Rachel Thiry

Frog and Toad Are Friends poke cards are a great independent, partner or guided reading group comprehension activity. Frog and Toad Are Friends is a just right beginning chapter book for my second grade students. Students in my small groups quickly make connections to the characters and their unique friendship. The poke cards are self checking. After reading each chapter, students will answer each question by selecting one of three choices. Using a pencil, straw, or pipe cleaner, students will poke through the hole to choose their answer. The correct answer will have a mark above or around the hole. The poking process quickly engages the students and provides immediate feedback to them. Cards have chapter titles on them for ease of organization. Teacher Preparation: -Print on card stock for durability. -Using a hole punch, at each * punch a hole. -Identify the correct answer and draw a circle around the hole or mark an X above the hole. -Laminate for durability.
