Free Homeschool Phonics Activities (by date, oldest first)

This is a great way to work on first sound fluency and letter sounds!

Whether you are practicing phonological awareness, orthographic mapping, or tapping sounds in words when you read this mat is perfect! For some kids, phonological awareness is hard to hear and they need a concrete method in breaking sounds apart. This helped my students to break words apart when writing or practicing phonological awareness!

Use it for small groups, early finisher activities, or centers! My kids always beg to play this game!

This freebie includes the first set which has the first 13 words on the Zeno word list. I teach the 107 Sight Words because they are the most narrowed-down list of the most commonly used words in texts. It is important your child can read these words quickly and accurately for success in reading! 

Included:

• Go Fish Rules
• Set 1; first 13 sight words on the Zeno Word List
• Total of 52 cards
• Endless amounts of fun!

*Prep time is needed. I suggest you print these on card stock and laminate them for more durability. Printing on normal paper will work too! Print the set of cards and cut them out!

For all 107 words buy the bundle!
