Phonics Curriculum vs. Spelling Activities vs. Fluency
This phonics curriculum resource is designed to help students not only learn to recognize and decode phonics patterns, but to spell and fluently read words in many scenarios as well. There are 4 activities for phonics, 4 spelling word activities, 4 fluency activities and 4 partner activities included EACH WEEK for repetitive practice.
When to use the AL, AW and AU Diphthongs Worksheets and Spelling Activities:
These phonics activities are PERFECT for whole group reading, reading centers, substitutes, student teachers, parent read alouds, morning work, independent work, small group reading, spelling homework and more. Each activity is repeated with new words each week so students know what to expect and can complete the spelling word activities independently.
Timeline for AL, AW and AU Diphthongs Worksheets and Spelling Activities:
Each skill is intended to be practiced during a full week of school. Personally, I skip any short weeks and use these for review. Some skills may be harder than others and might require repeated activities.
Who are the 2nd Grade Phonics Curriculum and Activities for?
These 2nd grade phonics activities are aligned specifically for 2nd graders. However, advanced 1st graders or 3rd or 4th graders who need extra spelling practice can benefit from these skills. These resources are great for schools implementing the concepts behind the science of reading.
