Kindergarten Phonics Task Cards (by date, oldest first)

These letter cards are great for your students to practice during small group time as a fun game! You can even make it interesting by telling your students that if they find the correct letter they get to keep the cards, whoever has the most cards in the end wins!

Have some fun with your phonics this fall! This set is provided in both b/w & color. Prepare the color activities so you can use again and again! Students will interact with the materials to practice identification of initial, medial, and final sounds. In addition, differentiated pages are provided to work on identification of all sounds within a CVC word.

Initial Sounds: Use the apple orchard mat when working on initial sounds. 26 apple cards are included. Students will pick up the card, say the word, and identify the initial sound. All consonants and short vowels are represented:

Items: apple, bear, cupcake, donut, egg, fire, gourd, hat, inch, jack-o-lantern, king, leaf, moon, note, otter, pie, queen, rainbow, scarecrow, tent, umbrella, vote, wagon, x-ray, yellow, zip

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.
