EA Phonic Worksheets for Early Years/Intervention/Special Needs
Special Resources, ELA, Language Development, Phonics, Reading, Spelling, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, Activities, Games, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
This is a pack of 30 phonic worksheets for the Long Vowel EA (as in eat) specially designed for those with special needs, including those with dyslexia or who may be suspected of being dyslexic but will work equally well with young learners in Kindergarten/EYFS/Y1. A pack of 30 worksheets with a variety of exercises to help build phonemic awareness and reading fluency. These sheets are LETRS and UK GOV requirements aligned. These worksheets also align with the most popular phonic programmes, including RWI and Letters and Sounds. What is included? 30 worksheets for the sound EA taking pupils from hearing the sounds in words to reading and spelling them at word and sentence level. all following my special method devised as I privately tutor children of all ages with profound special needs. Your phonics lessons covered! Tracking, fluency triangles, spelling, reading, games, comprehension exercises....and more! 2 PDF games to send home for extra practice included! Who are these worksheets for? I have written them for pupils who struggle with processing information - especially sounds. This includes children who are DYSLEXIC or have ANY other kind of processing disorder. Such children may have failed with other methods of teaching phonics. Such pupils need activities that: ·are highly structured - one tiny step at a time building on the one before using only a limited number of words to start with and only using words that the child has already learnt to sound out, with no nasty surprises. ·Have only a little on each pageas these pupils tire easily. What makes these worksheets special? I have a powerful three-step process which I use with my special needs pupils, which is worked out over the course of the 30 worksheets: 1. See it!where we focus on becoming aware of the new sound in words. This involves first hearing the new sound in words and then seeing it in words (tracking). 2. Sound-it-out!Having learnt to see the new sound in words, we learn to sound out these words to read and write them. We begin by usingsound-it-out boxesfor reading and spelling which help the child to segment the word prior to blending the sounds together. Once the child can read and write individual words, we work on fluency by building familiarity with the common words in the new sound family. Once the child can sound the words out to read and spell confidently, we move on to recognising them/using them in longer reading and dictation passages, as soon as the child is able. I provide 2 reading passages with comprehension exercises and one dictation passage, with a page in the workbook dedicated to it, with room for a picture, which again cements understanding. 3. Write it! Incorporated into the above two steps, we constantly write the new sound. This adds a multi-sensory dimension to our work - we see with our eyes, we sound it with our mouth parts and voice, and then we move by writing. All three steps work together to help the child feel in control of his/her learning and to become a successful, confident learner. We finish each sound with a dictation which culminates our work before we move on to the next sound. I try to give the dictation a week after we finish the work on the EA sound to act as revision. The dictation: Read this passage to your pupil, who should write it. Have the child read his/her work and check for errors. Make sure the writing is completely accurate before saying the child has finished, including full stops and capital letters correctly used. Flashcards are included of some common EA words. What is included? 1 PDF with flashcards, 2 easy-prep games and 30 worksheets

This Guided Reading Book - The Arctic Fox (Level L) with lesson plan includes: Guided Reading Color Label (front cover x1) This is a quick way to match the book’s demands to what students can generally handle.. The overall goal is to use the level/color to pick books for several smaller groups. To qualify for a certain level, a student is expected to read a book from that level with about 90–94% accuracy. If a student is consistently accurate and understands, move up a level. If the student is struggling at that level, drop down and add more support. Each student will improve at completely different rates, but it is generally one of the best ways to check progress across the class. DOWNLOAD THE CATALOG TO VIEW ALL GUIDED READING BOOKS AVAILABLE (SORTED LEVELS A-Z) Pre-Reading Question (x1) Teacher asks the prompt aloud, can be while showing the cover or first page. Students share what they already know, or make educated guesses from the cover. Prompt them to use the target vocabulary. Write some of their responses on the board to look back at during the reading. Vocabulary Words (x5) Introduce the five words, best doing it one at a time. Start by saying it, while students repeat and then see if anyone knows what it means before reading further. Read through the meaning and try to briefly connect each word to a picture or gesture so it’s meaningful. Ask students to flip through the book pages and point to where they see each of the vocabulary words. While reading the book pause upon coming across one of the vocab words or read the sentence twice to make sure students understand the word has appeared. Optional: Ask students to raise hands whenever they see/hear one of the new words. Guided Reading Pages (x10) Check the book snapshot (below) for: primary topic - do you need to prep extra reading or intro materials on this? what is taught best - decide on 1-2 bullets to focus on, use the prompt or words provided here for best results. learning goals - what you are checking for students to be able to do after the session, elicit answers using prompts or words provided. key vocabulary (see section above). questions overview - so you know what is coming up and if you need to prep extra materials to assist understanding. Run the lesson You may have already looked at a few of the pages together, but you can show them some of the pictures again first to set meaning. Depending on how much time you have and how familiar your students are with guided reading class, you may want to read the book aloud first with the group first. Students whisper or partner read, while you listen in. If time, do it as a group, one student reading a page each. Use the guided page’s prompts to coach: “Check the picture / does it make sense?” “Point under the words / try the first sound” “Reread the sentence smoothly”. Try to focus more on one student per session (rotating every time), so you can work out if they are ready to move up or need to move down a level. Comprehension Questions (back cover x3) This is your way to check that students didn’t just say the words, but actually understood the text. First, let students answer by pointing to the page/picture and saying a short sentence. After any answer, follow with: “Show me where you found that in the text.” In bigger groups, have partners answer first (10–20 seconds), then call on 2–3 students to share. Differentiation tips: Emerging speakers/struggling readers: oral + pointing On-level: oral in a full sentence Higher: one written sentence or draw + label Book Snapshot Title: The Arctic Fox: A Winter Survivor Genre: Nonfiction (informational) Subject: Life Science Primary Topic: Arctic fox adaptations for cold-weather survival Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): L What This Book Teaches Best Explains the Arctic fox’s habitat (“far north”) and names the tundra as a vast, treeless land with deep winter snow. Describes seasonal camouflage: white winter fur to hide, and brown/gray summer fur to blend with rocks and plants. Shows physical adaptations that help the fox stay warm and move safely (small rounded ears; thick fur on paws like “warm socks”). Teaches hunting behaviors using precise actions and vocabulary (hearing prey under snow; pouncing by leaping and diving head-first). Introduces animal homes and young: a den as tunnels under hills/rocks, and baby foxes called kits born in spring. Learning Goals Describe where the Arctic fox lives and what the tundra is. Explain how the Arctic fox’s fur color helps it in winter and in summer. Describe two body features that help the Arctic fox stay warm in freezing weather. Explain how the Arctic fox finds prey under the snow using its hearing. Describe what “pouncing” is and how it helps the fox catch food. Describe what a den is and what kits do as they grow. Key Vocabulary From the Text tundra — cold, treeless land in the far north. lemmings — small animals the fox can hunt. prey — an animal another animal hunts and eats. pouncing — leaping and diving quickly to catch food. den — a home or shelter where an animal lives. Discussion Prompts Pre-reading question: What body parts or behaviors might help an animal stay warm in a cold, windy place? Comprehension questions: How does the Arctic fox’s fur help it hide in winter and in summer? What does the fox do with its tail when it goes to sleep? How does pouncing help the Arctic fox catch its food? Printing Tips 1. Best Printing Method (Recommended) “Booklet” Printing (Best if Available) If your printer or PDF viewer supports Booklet Printing , use this. Settings to use: Print mode: Booklet Paper size: Letter or A4 (either works) Orientation: Landscape Print on both sides: Yes Flip on: Short edge Scaling: Fit to printable area Booklet subset: First test: Front sides only Then: Back sides only This will automatically: Pair pages correctly Put the cover on the outside Align everything for folding After printing, fold in half and staple along the spine . 2. If “Booklet” Printing Is NOT Available You can still print this correctly with manual duplex printing . Step-by-step: Open the PDF. Choose Print . Set: Orientation: Landscape Pages per sheet: 1 Print on both sides: Yes Flip on: Short edge Print all pages . Because each PDF page already contains two facing book pages, the result will still fold cleanly into a book. Thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership.

FULL CATALOG OF DOWNLOAD LINKS AND ENCYCLOPEDIA INDEX HERE Lesson Snapshot Title: Numbers Genre: Nonfiction Subject: Math (Number Systems) Primary Topic: Counting systems, place value, and zero Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): N What This Lesson Teaches Best Explains early counting methods (bodies, fingers, pebbles) and introduces the tally system as one mark per item. Shows why communities needed lasting number records as towns and trading grew, including wedge-shaped marks pressed into clay in Mesopotamia . Introduces different ways cultures wrote numbers (Egyptian hieroglyph symbols; Roman numerals using I, V, and X). Teaches how the base-ten system and place value use digits 0–9, and why zero matters for holding an empty place. Traces how Hindu-Arabic numerals spread through books, trade routes, and schools (including mention of Fibonacci) and appear today on receipts, maps, and screens. Learning Goals Describe two ways people counted before modern number symbols were common. Explain what a tally system is and why it can get “messy fast” for big amounts. Describe how people in Mesopotamia recorded numbers in soft clay and why those marks lasted. Explain how base-ten place value works (a digit’s spot helps decide its size). Explain why zero is important in the base-ten system, using the text’s explanation. Describe how the “method of the Indians” spread to new places over time. Key Vocabulary From the Text Tally — counting with one mark for each thing. Mesopotamia — an ancient place where early number writing appeared. Wedge-shaped — shaped like a wedge pressed into clay. Place value — a digit’s value depends on its position. Fibonacci — a thinker who helped spread the new number method. Cored Ed Encyclopedia Overview The Cored Ed Encyclopedia is a weekly series of lessons that you can pick up and use right away. These short readings fit into whatever time you have available. Each one includes a warm-up, a reading, and a set of questions, but it’s flexible — you can do just the reading, the full lesson, or skip the writing section if you need to. Each lesson focuses on a single topic so students don’t get lost. The writing is clear but never childish, making it perfect for grades two through five. Topics range from animals and science to history, inventions, and everyday things. No matter the level of the student, everyone should take away at least one new idea or fact from each lesson. The materials are easy to print, easy to explain, and require no setup. They work well for whole-class teaching, partner work, or independent study.

Read the five facts together. After each fact, do ask a student for their opinion, was it surprising? Set a purpose by asking students to highlight/underline one fact they want to learn more about during the reading. Reading Passage The text is a high-interest reading passage with set paragraphs, roughly three to four paragraphs long. It contains a variety of themes about the topic, anywhere from history to technology. The passage is between 250 and 350 words in length. First, ask students to look at the headings and see what they’ll learn about today. What do they know about the topic/heading? First read options: Teacher read-aloud (best for support). Partner reading (paragraph by paragraph). While reading, students underline important details, and vocabulary words they think may come up in the questions section. Mixed Questions The first question page contains four multiple-choice questions, each with a choice of four answers, and three written response questions that require a sentence or two from the student. Students complete the mcqs first independently, then review quickly as a class. For the 3 written responses, try to get students giving the answer with some form of evidence: “I think ___ because the text says ___.” If students get stuck, send them back to check the passage.

For the scrambled spelling task, get four pairs to come up to the board and write the words for extra practice with the other student reading out the clue. For the matching task, prompt students to give full sentences: “I matched ___ with ___ because ___.” Creative Writing In this question, the student will be required to write a five to eight sentence paragraph on a question related to the topic. Before starting, ask students write down 3 key ideas they are going to include in their piece. Ask students for ideas to share around the class to help those struggling. Pro writing expectations: 5–8 sentences At least 2 facts or details from the passage At least 2 vocabulary words from the previous page Students read their paragraphs while classmates listen for facts and vocabulary words. Extension Activities This page is optional for fast finishers or to take home. There are several activities, each one requiring a different skill.

Breaking the Big Words | Volume 2, Set 2
ELA, Language Development, Phonics, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
Breaking the Big Words Volume 2, Set 2 Mastering syllable division helps young students become skilled decoders and confident readers. This phonics resource focuses on V/CV syllable patterns, open and closed syllable types, and two-three syllable words. The activities scaffold learning by introducing one syllable type at a time. As students gain mastery, supports fade to build independence. Visual aids ensure comprehension. Parts of each lesson include: new vocabulary words, review of familiar patterns, a “Break Before You Read” list to separate syllables, and a “Break While You Read” activity with sentences for generalization. Teachers can further apply this strategy by having students divide syllables in decodable texts, stories, content vocabulary, or worksheets. Eventually, supports like the syllable division steps can be removed as students copy and divide words independently. This volume allows early elementary students to feel successful recognizing syllable patterns. Confident decoders become passionate readers!
