Do your students struggle with beginning reading skills? Do they need a multi-sensory hands-on approach to learn how to decode words with short vowels, digraphs, blends, and long vowels? I know my students did. I have tried so many ways to help them with decoding phonics sounds within words. One day I found a large box of popsicle sticks and who knew it would be just the thing I needed!

I decided to create a wordlist and write each word on a popsicle stick. I ultimately created 4 sets. The skills included CVC Words, Digraphs, Consonant Blends, and Long Vowel Sounds. Once that is finished the work is done and you are left with many engaging centers and games for the students to practice. These TACTILE, KINESTHETIC, and VISUAL activities are sure to MOTIVATE your students and help them EASILY LEARN phonics skills. Plus, these activities help build FINE MOTOR SKILLS and PHONICS skills in an ENGAGING learning environment!
