Are you looking for a low-prep phonics activity for your Grade 1 and Grade 2 classroom? Students will love playing this phonics game, and it will help to develop their decoding skills and spelling skills for words with the Long Vowel Phoneme I. Long Vowel Phoneme I spelling include:
words with i
words with i_e
words with igh
words with ie
words with y
Two versions of this game are included. Use at different stages of the year OR to differentiate this game for different levels of students.
ROLL IT READ IT KEEP IT:
This activity can be applied to any set of decodable words. Simply place a set of words face-down on the gameboard. Students take it in turns to roll the dice and pick up a word from the corresponding pile. They need to read the word in order to be able to keep it.
ROLL IT SPELL IT KEEP IT:
This alternative is the same, except students need to spell the word. A partner or group member picks up the word, and asks the player to spell the word. If they get it correct, they can keep the card.
Over 220 word cards are included– I suggest printing on coloured paper or cardboard.
