I love using this to support my early writers! I have laminated all of mine or you can simply put it in a sheet protector! Providing the letters on the page helps to differentiate it for students that need the support. This will help your students make sure they have all their sounds in their words!

These are perfect for small-group instruction or centers! Slide them in sheet protectors or laminate and you can reuse them! You can print these cards double-sided (on the short side) so that students can self-correct!

This creates meaning for words that follow the phonics pattern they are learning. This is important in helping the child turn these words into sight words!
