Fold & read cards for o-e words

Here’s yet another phonics activity for silent e words!

free o-e fold and read activity

My Five has been coming home from morning kindergarten to do some reading games with me.  We’ve already shared fold and read cards for a-e words and i-e words.  Time for o-e!

fold and read o-e 1

At almost nine months pregnant, super simple is what I need. And these fit the bill.

Just print the strips front to back on regular paper.  Have your child read the short o word first.  (My son said “smoke” initially, so I had him slow down and tell me the sound of the o.)

fold and read o-e 2

Then have your child fold in the strip so that the letters on the back help to form a new word.

fold and read o-e 4

We made it through the whole stack in just a few minutes! What a quick, fun learning activity!

YOU’LL LOVE THIS PRACTICAL BOOK!

    Thanks a lot Anna for the valuable material that you share with us. This is very helpful especially in Africa where the budget doesnt allow us to spend any on this kind of material. You are a star! Teaching has been made easy and the results are amazing !

    Thank you so much for these ideas. I can use/adapt them for my 72 year old literacy student. Like I have told you before, I don’t have a budget, so “free” is good.
