Do you teach word families?

It takes a week for this to happen!
Create the list and practice reading it each day.
- One day the students chorally read the word.
- One day I say the rhyme chunks, and the students have to find the word.
- One day, I segment the word.../c/ /a/ /t/...the students have to say the word...cat! Then someone finds it! S
Once we have 2 charts, we are ready to sort some words!
We focus on the -at and -an chucks! Cut and paste to sort the words and practice reading. Check out Successive Blending to help with reading. Remember: reading quickly works the brain.
Then we add more sorts! Students can also work on writing more words the stretch their learning.
This is the resource I used to help the students look through the word and focus on the word families. It has really helped my students! Hope it helps yours! Word Family Word Work!
Check out the sequence below to help you plan (included in resource)!
