Phonemic Awareness Cards

By K3 Homeschool Foundations

Let's be honest, phonemic awareness can be SO boring for our students! Whenever we are working on it they want to use the words in sentences or want to see a picture of what that word means! Now they have a picture to connect to the word!

These cards are so much fun my students beg me to work with them! I let them choose their manipulative; whether it is play-dough to tap, legos, chips, or blocks! This also gives those kiddos struggling with blending and segmenting a concrete method to gain those skills!

This bundle allows you to choose the skill that you need for each group you are working with!

-Includes

-CVC Vowels; a,e,i,o,u

-VCe Vowels;

-Digraphs; ch,sh,th,wh,ck,ph,wr,kn

-Vowels; ar,or,er,ur,ir

-Pictures to provide meaning

-Sound boxes on the front

-The word and amount of sounds on the back for self-correction!
