Looking for Long Vowels
This is an activity I designed to help my first graders recognize and decode long vowel/silent 'e' words when reading. The students either use their current guided reading text or decodable book. As they read, they search for words, and as they find them they write them down under the correct vowel. I have found that the students pay more attention to what they are reading, rather than quickly skimming over difficult or unfamiliar words. Since the long vowel/silent 'e' is an important element in first grade, this has proved to be an excellent activity for extra practice.
