fold and read u-e words

This is just a quick post to give you our last installment of free fold and read cards for silent e words!

This is just a small set, as there are very few short u words that can be changed into a new word by adding an e.  Don’t worry – we also have free games and worksheets that reinforce all the other u-e words.

u-e fold and read 1

Simply print and cut out the strips.  Have your child read the short vowel word.

u-e fold and read 2

Then he folds in the paper to meet the dotted line and reads the new word.

u-e fold and read 3

Even with the small set of words, this was an important activity.  I wanted my Five to see that when you make u-e words, the u can make the sound /oo/ (as in tube) or the sound /yoo/ (as in cute). He grasped this more easily than I’d anticipated. 🙂

    Anna,

    I LOVE your ideas. Thank you so much for all of the wonderful fun and useful activities!
    Hope baby is doing well.
    Please keep posting and sharing!

    (At this time, I am trying to figure out how to “put together” the fold-n-read words!)
