Vocabulary Google Apps

Build understanding of unusual words and phrases:

When reading "The Gift of the Magi" my students came across several words and phrases that were unknown to them. Some of the words or phrases are out of date, some are not part of the students' life experience. This activity helps the students to build an understanding of the unknown words. This understanding helps to build comprehension of the story. Building vocabulary leads to stronger readers.

Students enjoy searching for images to help with understanding. They can search the images through Google or directly through the Google Slide.

What's included:

• Instructional slide.
• Activity slides.

How is this resource useful:

• No prep for teachers.
• Builds understanding for students.
• Greater vocabulary leads to better reading comprehension.

Dive into the world of reading with our Digital CVC Word Decoding Activity! Designed to enhance phonics skills and promote word recognition, this interactive resource provides students with engaging opportunities to decode CVC (Consonant-Vowel-Consonant) words. On each slide, students will encounter three words to decode by sounding out using letter sounds.

As students work through the activity, they'll employ phonemic awareness strategies to decode each word, sounding out the individual phonemes and blending them together to form the complete word. Once decoded, students will then match the provided images to the corresponding words, reinforcing vocabulary and comprehension.

Why You'll Love This Product:

• Enhanced Phonics Skills: Strengthen phonemic awareness and decoding abilities with a hands-on activity that promotes active engagement and learning.
• Interactive Learning: Keep students motivated and focused with interactive elements that encourage participation and provide immediate feedback.
• Reinforces Vocabulary: Build students' sight word vocabulary and comprehension as they match images to decoded words, reinforcing word-picture associations.
• Flexible Use: Perfect for use in the classroom, homeschooling, or remote learning environments, providing versatile literacy practice for young readers.
• Promotes Independence: Empower students to take ownership of their learning as they decode words and match corresponding images independently.

Who This Product Is For:

1. Kindergarten Teachers: Supplement phonics instruction with an interactive activity that reinforces decoding skills in a fun and engaging way.

2. First Grade Teachers: Provide additional practice opportunities for young readers to strengthen CVC word decoding skills and build confidence.

3. Homeschooling Parents: Enhance at-home literacy learning with a digital resource that supports phonics development and word recognition.

4. Literacy Specialists: Use as a valuable tool to support struggling readers in mastering essential phonics skills and building fluency.

5. Early Childhood Educators: Integrate phonics practice into early literacy instruction with a versatile resource suitable for young learners.
