DIY Phonic Flip Book- Learn to Read

kidsactivityblog.com



"What you will need to make your own phonics flip chart:
  • Wirebound Index Card Book
  • Scissors
  • Tape
  • Marker
Divide your flip chart into 3 sections for 3 letter words or 4 sections to work on consonant blends.
 
After you cut the number of sections that you want, label each card with a letter (a-z).  You could try adding several common blends on the ends or at the start (ex: ch, sh, th, gr, cl, sp, st, fr etc.)." - Kids Activity Blog
 
Label your middle section with short vowels (a, e, i, o, u, oo)
 
If your child is grade 1 or older you can also include long vowels
(ay/ai, or/aw/au, er/ir/ur, oo/ue/ui/ew, oy/oi, ar, ie/y, ee/ea, oe/oa, ou/ow)
 
This can be used as a spelling or reading tool for real words and for non words.
 
make up some silly non words and have your child sound them out e.g. cr/oa/sk = croask, or even dictate a real or made up word to your child and have them spell it using the flip book.
 
 
Alternatively you could use the same concept to work on Word Families.
