Silent E Activity Pack: Transforming Short Vowels into Long Vowels Unlock the magic of the silent "e" with this engaging and interactive activity pack. This pack includes three carefully crafted activities to help students understand how adding an "e" to the end of a CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) word changes the vowel sound from short to long. Perfect for classroom use or at-home learning! Activity 1: Word Transformation with Pop SticksStudents start by reading a list of CVC words, focusing on the short vowel sounds. Then, they add an "e" to the end of each word and pronounce the new word, noticing how the vowel sound changes. To make this even more fun, each student gets a pop stick with an "e" attached to the end, allowing them to practice adding and removing the "e" from words. Customise your pop stick by writing the "e" or using the included star cutouts! 6 pages Activity 2: Real vs. Nonsense Word SortingIn this sorting activity, students categorise words based on vowel sounds. They'll sort words into "real" and "nonsense" categories, reinforcing their understanding of long and short vowels. For added excitement, students can "feed" the real words to an animal character and toss the nonsense words into a bin. If a student places a real word in the bin, take the opportunity to introduce them to the word and its meaning. 16 pages Activity 3: Silent E PresentationThis visual presentation introduces the concept of the silent "e" in an easy-to-understand way. It includes slides with CVC words followed by their transformed CVCe versions, helping students visualize and practice the change in vowel sounds. 193 pages Please note, this resource is not editable.
