I am always looking for new, hands-on ways to teach my kids reading skills. Little learners are much more engaged if we find a way to reach them through activities that use their hands along with their little minds. I created this set of Read and Stack Mats that use building cubes to practice the alphabet, cvc words, and blends & digraphs. The concept is pretty easy, and the prep is even easier. No cutting....just print and use.
CVC Read and Stack Mats- The students read cvc words, find the matching word family/rhyming word, and then stack the correct number of blocks. Example-If the cvc word rhymes with cat, they stack 2 blocks on each word. If the cvc word rhymes with dog, they stack 3 blocks on each word.
BLENDS AND DIGRAPHS Read and Stack Mats-The students look at each picture, determine the beginning blend, and then stack the correct number of blocks according to the key. Example-If the picture begins with SN, the students stack 5 blocks on the picture. If the picture begins with ST, 6 blocks are stacked on the picture.
DIGRAPHS Read and Stack Mats-The students look at each picture, determine the beginning digraph, and then stack the correct number of blocks according to the key. Example-If the picture begins with SH, the students stack 7 blocks on the picture. If the picture begins with CH, 5 blocks are stacked on the picture. Simple as that!
ALPHABET Read and Stack Mats- The students look at each picture, determine the beginning sounds, and then stack the correct number of blocks according to the key. Example-If the picture begins with the letter Aa, students stack 2 blocks. If the picture begins with letter Bb, the students stack 5 blocks on the picture.
