Cut out the short I words from this pack and have child glue them on to a separate piece of paper. (Take out the "ice" and "iron" words, as we are not yet covering long vowel sounds.)
Day 12: "-it" Word Family
Using letter magnets, help the child read the word "it" on the board. Then, one at a time add a letter at the beginning to make new words: pit, fit, hit, bit, sit, kit, quit (you may have to review the /qu/ sound).

Using only the short a, e & i-vowel word cards, sort these cards by their correct vowel.
Day 13: More Short I-Vowel Words
Place some more word endings on the board, or write them on a paper: -in, -ig, -im, and -ix.
Help the child to add letters to the beginning of each to make new words: pin, win, tin, pig, wig, big, him, dim, Kim, six, and fix.
Add one more word as a challenge: "quiz", reminding child that the first two letters are one sound.

Day 14: Sight Words "a," "is," "his," "as," & "has"
Review previous sight word cards. Show the "I" card and remind child that it sounds like it's name. Now, add in a card for the word "a," pointing out that in this case, the "a" also says it's name because it is by itself.
Make sight word cards for each of the following words: is, his, as, and has. Show the child each card, emphasizing the final "s" makes a /z/ sound, like a buzzing bee. Place your cards on your Word Wall or in your special flashcard collection.
Choose some activities from these Rompin' & Roarin' Sight Word Packs for the words: a, is, the & and.
