Word Chunks 1

Picture

This is not your typical worksheet pack. Use these materials to bundle CCSS literacy learning in your classroom! Your students will burst with pride when they use these emergent readers to learn to read and write using and making CVC words. Since CVC word practice is embedded within a book format students practice their reading, writing, speaking and listening! This activity aligns with more than 30 common core standards each time you use these books and will inspire reading and writing enthusiasm. Be sure to laminate the color books to use for teacher whole group modeling so that you can use them over and over again. Then encourage students to use the targeted CVC word in meaningful print experiences in their individual books. Success is ensured by first having students trace the key CVC word followed by repeated reading opportunities. This scaffolded support eventually results in students reading and writing the targeted CVC words independently. Be sure to build reading excitement in your classroom by having students read and sign their books with classmates. There is even a parent involvement component too. Try these materials and see how many skills you can integrate with just one book! Authentic assessments are included to assist you in monitoring progress and collecting data. Each book contains 8 pages to practice the targeted CVC words! The 6 books included in the Word Chunks 1 unit include: My "an" Family, My "at" Family, My "en" Family, My "et" Family, My "in" Family and My "it" Family.
