Reading Vowel Team Words with Read and Reveal Cards
One of my all time favorite resources I created for my guided reading groups last year was my Read and Reveal cards! I found that they were really struggling blending their CVC words together, so I added some visual reminders to the words. Dots under each sound to remind them to touch and say each sound, and an arrow under the whole word as a reminder to blend all the sounds together. Then the best part…the hidden picture under the flap to “reveal” the word they read! Here’s a video of one of my cuties reading the CVC read and reveal cards {you can just hear the excitement in her voice when she reads it correctly :)}.
I found that these cards really helped my emerging readers, but I also found I could use them for my kiddos who were ready to learn new phonics patterns! I made a set for blends and digraphs that still incorporated the short vowel sounds as well as magic e words {complete with a magic wand!}
I have had these vowel teams Read and Reveal cards on my to-do list for almost a year! I’m so happy I finally had a chance to sit down and get them done! The vowel teams each have one dot under the team to remind my students that they two vowels work together to make ONE sound!
I’m so excited to show these to my little readers!
The new vowel team read and reveal cards have also been added to my Read & Reveal Bundle! If you previously purchased the bundle, you can re-download and grab the updates for free!
