Teaching the Magic or Silent E Rule? Once kids know how to decode VCE words, they can read SO many more words! Read tips for making it fun!
January is here! A NEW YEAR and so much to learn! I am super excited to continue our learning for this school year and start the calendar year off strong!
Hi guys :) I'm blogging today about how I taught Super E or CVCe words this year! I started by showing them this YouTube video by Harry Kindergarten: I love this video and so do the kids! We made 2 anchor charts. In one I showed them how super e changes CVC words into a new word, like cap to cape, and can to cane. I don't have a picture of this one (sorry!). In the second one we practiced writing CVCe words to practice hearing and recording sounds in words and to increase our vocabulary. Here are the centres I set out for the kids to practice CVCe words with! 1. CVCe Read, Make & Trace The students read the word, make it with magnetic letters and trace the word with a dry erase marker. This one was a big hit with all of my kids! 2. Building CVCe Words I made this one to challenge my higher readers. They look at the picture, guess the word, build it with magnetic letters and check their work with the answer key. 3. Super E Play Dough My kids love anything to do with play dough. This one was another centre that was accessible and fun for all learners in my class! 4. CVCe Puzzles Here's another centre that was accessible for all learners. My ECE sat with 2 JK's one morning who wanted some support with these puzzles and they did an amazing job together! 5. Super E Read & Match My kids also love dry erase markers so I made these read & match sheets so that they could practice reading the word and matching it to the correct picture. 6. My Little Super E Book One of my favourite activities was this Super E booklet. I had the kids write in the magic e and then read the book to me. Some kids even labelled each picture using the words in the sentence (so smart!). It is now in their book box and a book they can read during independent reading time. 7. CVCe Mini Reader This mini reader has all of the words that they need on the cover so they can refer to it if needed... and the kids can use a pencil or letter stamps to complete the sentences! This one is a freebie. I originally included it in my preview but realized that people might not know how to download a TPT preview. So you can now also grab it by clicking on the image below from google drive! All of the centre activities you see in this blog post can be found in my Super E! CVCe Centres & Printables pack on TPT.

After students have mastered short vowels and CVC words , you can teach them how to read CVCe words with long vowels. I typically teach these after I've already taught digraphs and consonant blends. CVCe stands for Consonant-Vowel-Consonant-e, like the words tape, rope, and kite. When an 'e' is

It is time for Show and Tell Tuesday for the month of June! :) I am linking up with Forever in Fifth Grade to share four pictures of what is going on in my little corner of the world. :) This past Friday, my husband and I made a quick trip up to Kansas City to see the Boys in Blue. It is always a fun time at The K, especially when the Royals get a win! I was able to see two home runs and the boys win! :) Prior to the game starting we watched the Big Slick celebrity softball game which raises money for Children's Mercy, a local children's hospital. There was an all-star cast including Rob Riggle, Paul Rud, Eric Stonestreet, James Marsden, Jason Sudeikis and many others. The picture isn't the greatest.....but that is all the Big Slick participants for a group photo at the end of their game. The celebrities raised a record setting 1.3 million dollars for Children's Mercy! Yay! If you want to donate click here. At the start of the summer some friends of ours invited us to their farm to see their baby goats that were just born. In fact the mama goat had just had triplets....on my birthday! :) They were so cute!!! I tried to convince my husband to let me bring one home....but no dice. :( I am a big fan of antiques and gardening....so when you can combine the two....IT IS HEAVEN! My husband and I try to find rustic/antique looking pots, tins, buckets, etc......and then we use them as planters. Check out the little beauties we found antiquing this year.... Above is an old calf bucket that was used for feeding baby calves. We loved it because it had a hanger in the back which allowed us to hang it from a tree branch ladder my husband made a few years back. Pictured below is a rusty bucket sitting on top of an old stool, and then two antique oil cans with their corner cut out. You can almost always find galvanized tubs at antique stores....and they make great homes for plants. You just have to make sure to drill holes in the bottom for proper drainage. We also fill our planters with about a fourth of lava rock and then good, rich soil. The lava rock helps fill the planter and assist with drainage. I was **ecstatic** when I found these little numbers. They are cut form old license plates and then bent so they can hang. Aren't they ADORABLE! Last but not least....... my latest TPT product. Slap Words is a fun and engaging game that reviews various phonics skills with students. This particular game focuses on CVCe words--nonsense and real words. Basically the game comes with a cards that you can cut and laminate. When you want to play the game you lay the cards out on a table face up. The "caller" reads a word and the first student to slap the word called keeps the word. Students can slap with their hand or a fly swatter! Kids love the game.....set up is simple.....and it can be played at a center! Great game!!
