Long and Short Vowels

Listening to a child read is much more than them getting practice.

It can help give us an insight into where they are as readers.

Thismagic e activityis perfect for kindergartners and grade 1 students alike.

These cute fall puzzles will help your child practice reading short vowel words and long vowel words that have the magic e. You can use this Long and Short Vowel Game all together to practice sorting between long and short vowels, or simply use the short vowel puzzles with pre-k and kindergarten students and then when your first graders are ready for work on bossy e words.

I would only recommend this if they are very familiar with the bossy e or magic e rule.

This is how my daughter and I did this activity.

Have five of them be short vowel words and the other five long vowel words.

Whether you are a parent, teacher, or homeschooler - this phonics practice with both long vowels and short vowels is a great way to reinforce the concept and allow students to improve reading and spelling.

Once again spread out the words in a line.

Then sit with your little one and have them read them to you.

I would also suggest reviewing the rules as they read them.
