It's rhyme time! Students will color-code rhyming words and put each one in its “word family house” with this fun rhyming mini book and fill in the "stair steps" writing activity page.

Practice making new words with your students as they learn about words in the -and word family.

Short vowels can be found just about anywhere. One great place to look is inside your own classroom. In this lesson, students will enjoy going through the class list to sort the names of their peers based on short vowel sounds.

Students will have fun working with partners as they identify the missing vowels in common animal CVC words. Can be used as a stand alone or support lesson for the Animal Vowels lesson plan.
