Book Description

This book has everything you need to teach 20 word families including: at, ap, an, ank, en, et, ed, est, in, it, ip, ig, ot, og, op, ock, unk, ub, ut, and ug. Each word family comes with a student made book featuring the adorable artwork of Stefani Sadler, letter cards, word cards, center ideas and a worksheet. The books are designed to be layered and filled with teachable moments. An example of this would for the "ock" word family where we have placed an illustration on one of the pages containing a block. The letters on the block are A, T & N. A teacher could point students to these letters and ask what words could be made using these three letters. The students would then respond: a, an, at, ant, tan and so on. Each book contains cross curricular connections similar to this example. The activities and worksheets are designed to address all primary ability levels. The younger learners can use these activities in a whole or small group setting whereas the older learners may complete them independently. We have tried to provide as much instructional flexibility as possible by providing the ideas, reproducibles and all the tools necessary to successfully teach word families. Also available as a five part series: (at, ap, an, ank) or (, en, et, ed, est) or (in, it, ip, ig) or (ot, og, op, ock) or (unk, ub, ut, and ug).
