Have you ever wished students in the prereading and early reading stage could have opportunities to be fluent and build automaticity? How can students who barely know letter names and sounds become fluent? Ready Reads are just what you are looking for.

Ready Reads are warm up activities for the eyes and the brain and can support any curriculum. Ready Read charts cumulatively follow the scope and sequence of UFLI and support the Science of Reading. Use these in small group, whole group on the projector, in partners for accountability, or for students to whisper read to themselves. They can easily be adapted in an I read, We read, You read or Your turn, My turn format. Ready Reads can be used for students to say the letter name and/or the letter sound practicing grapheme recognition as well as phoneme recall. For pre-readers and early readers alike, this activity builds the left to right progression of reading and builds fluency for letters and concepts already learned. This is the building block for automaticity and fluent reading.

This freebie gets you started up to lesson 3. Get the full resource for Kinder, 1st, and 2nd to build your students' automaticity here! Kinder here 1st-2nd *Coming Soon*

VC words are simple, two-letter words made up of a vowel followed by a consonant, such as "at," "in," or "up." These words are beneficial for early readers because they introduce basic phonics skills, helping students recognize and blend vowel and consonant sounds. Mastering VC words builds a strong foundation for decoding more complex words, improves reading fluency, and boosts confidence in early literacy development.

Benefits

• Mastering sound blending

• Developing fluency in reading phonetically regular words

• Supports early literacy skill development

• Lays the groundwork for advanced reading comprehension

Testimonials

How to play

Materials needed:

•A set of word cards from the same module.

Preparation:

•Ensure that all the cards are well-shuffled and face down in a deck.

Instructions:

1. Each player takes a specific number of word cards, depending on the number of players and the number of cards in the module. Typically, 7 word cards are dealt to each player in a game with two or three players.

2. Players begin by searching their seven cards for the ones containing the same word twice. The game kicks off with the player who has the longest duplicated word on their card. In case of a tie, the youngest student takes the first turn.

3. The first player plays one of their cards in the center of the table.

4. The next player tries to match one of their word cards in a way that one word matches one of the words on the ends of the word card placed on the table.

5. The game continues clockwise, and players must try to match their word cards in a way that one word matches one of the words on the ends of the word cards already placed on the table.

6. If a player cannot make a valid play with the word cards in their hand, they must draw a word card from the pile of unused word cards and pass their turn. If they still cannot make a play, they continue drawing until they can.

7. A player wins when they successfully get rid of all their word cards. If the game becomes blocked, meaning no player can make a valid move, the player or players with the fewest cards emerge as the winners.

Adaptations:

1. If you want to make the game easier, remove those cards where the word at the top and bottom of the card is the same. This will give each participant more opportunities.
2. There are two available sizes of cards. Print the small ones if you are going to play with the complete set of cards.

Progressive Learning:

You can play with only the cards that contain the words you have covered in class, and gradually add the rest of the cards as they learn them, with a minimum of 5 words (20 cards).

This roll and read phonics worksheet help students improve decoding and fluency skills. These short a sentences are perfect for literacy centers, morning work, small groups, homework, sub plans and more! Preschool, kindergarten, first grade and second grade students will practice their fluency and beginning reading skills by rolling a dice and then reading the matching sentence.
