Medial Short Vowel direct instruction, stations, and Boom cards!

Students will use a variety of activities to reinforce understanding of medial short vowel sounds. When teaching medial sounds I use a roller coaster arm motion providing emphasis of the medial sound at the top of the coaster. To reinforce this, I have made a visual students can use.

Direct Instruction Activity -

• Use the roller coaster and cars to segment words provided on the picture cards. Students will drive the coaster cars, identify the medial sound at the top of the coaster.
• This activity can be done over multiple days - you can focus on one vowel at a time (bring in mirrors so students can see the placement of their tongue when annunciating the short vowel sounds). You can also mix up all 5 short vowel sounds to determine if students are able to identify their sounds.
• Pictures provided have a short vowel focus, with a bonus 20 long vowel pictures.

Stations - Laminate the materials for extended use.

• Clip Cards (30 cards) - use expo markers or clothing pin to select the correct medial sound.
• Sorting (30 pictures) - Sort the pictures to the correct short sound
• 30 cards with pictures and beginning / ending sounds. Students will fill in the medial sound

Short Vowel Tab book - For extra practice, or direct instruction complete a tab book with your students. I have included a different set of pictures.

• B/W and color tab book

Boom cards - 10 sets of cards in all (one location)

Set one: Students select the correct word from a choice of 3 matching the picture.

Set two: Students will select the correct picture for the word that is provided.
