Summer Sales: Learn The Phonic Sound ough and augh (rough, laugh)
ELA, Language Development, Phonics, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
Summer Sales: Learn The Phonic Sound ough (as in rough) and augh (as in laugh) Learn To Read With Phonics Reading Packs are a quick and easy way to teach children to read in just six months. They are ideal for all ages (from 4 years plus), especially reluctant older readers of 7, 8, 9+, children with learning difficulties and children where English is a foreign language. The packs are designed to be used one to one or in small groups with a teacher and child or parent/guardian and child learning together. The packs consist of a structured course that build 44 phonic sounds into the text. As the children read the adventures of a loveable boy called Sam, they can have fun searching for hidden sounds. They will build up 44 sounds in total. This will enable them to read 80% of words in the English language, by breaking them down into sounds or syllables - pl ay ing. Children using phonics in this way progress fast. A series of stories, The Bouncing Castle and The Famous Cousin From The Country reinforce the complex middle sounds being learnt. By the end of the scheme, the child will be ready to progress to 'solo' reading books, such as Roald Dahl's 'Georges Marvellous Medicine' and 'Fantastic Mr Fox'. Many of the packs have cut out practice pages for matching words to pictures and phrases to pictures, to fix the sound words in the child's memory. The simple text and fun colour sketches, appeal to young readers and have helped the authors to teach many, many children to read. The reading packs may be used in any order, just pick the pack for the sound you require. However, when using the packs for a complete non reader we suggest you start with packs teaching initial sounds (word building with three or four letter words). Then move on to learning phonic sounds in this order: ch, sh, wh, th, oo, ee, ar, or, ur, ir, er, magic e, ea, oa, ai, ay, oi, oy, oa, short y (as in happy), long y (as in sky), soft c (as in mice), soft g (as in engine), ou, ow, au and aw. Next, move onto more complex sounds as in, tion, le, el, ough, gue, que, ine, ue, ie, ei, prefixes and suffixes. How To Use Each pack introduces a sound. 1) Learn the sound with the child/children 2) Read the sentences or stories several times, encouraging the child/children to talk about the pictures. 3) At the end of the sentences or story, there is a list of words and phrases, which the child can match to the pictures. Practise each sound several times, until the child is familiar with it.

Quick pause—thousands of Cored Education products are included with your TeachSimple membership. Download links and encyclopedia index available here. Pre-Reading Trivia Students will write down one thing they already know about the subject and then read five more facts and discuss. These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. Give 1 minute for students to write what they already know (no pressure—best guess is fine). 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. Vocabulary Questions Practice seven key words from the text in this section across two activities. First section is scrambled words where students will unscramble three words given a clue for each. The second section is a word to meaning matching activity. Before starting, have some students read out words they underlined in the passage. Ask students to say the word and read aloud the sentence(s) around each word. Ask students to do scrambled words and the matching exercise in pairs then go through answers as a class. 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. Do some, do none, do all, completely optional - but you will feel reassured knowing every possibility is planned for. Includes summary writting question and additional facts. Answer Key There are answers for the multiple-choice questions, written response questions have sample answers, vocabulary answers and if there is a summary question then a sample summary will be provided as well. Lesson Plan Included Customized lesson plan for this lesson is included. Lesson Snapshot Title: Flutes Genre: Nonfiction (Informational Text) Subject: Music / Science (Sound) / Reading (Informational Text) Primary Topic: How flutes make sound and changed over time Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): Q What This Lesson Teaches Best How very early flutes were made (carved from bird bone and mammoth ivory ) and why these finds matter as early musical instruments. How flutes make a clear note: a thin jet of air across an opening creates a wobbling column of air inside the tube. Cause and effect in instruments: covering or uncovering holes changes the tube’s length, so the pitch goes up or down. How design evolved in Europe, including added holes and keys and Theobald Boehm’s 1800s redesign with tone holes and ring keys . Key features of a modern concert flute (often metal, about 26 inches long, three sections, padded keys, range of a little more than three octaves ). Learning Goals Students will describe what materials some ancient flutes were carved from and how old they were said to be. Students will explain how a flute makes a clear note using the idea of a “column of air” in a tube. Students will explain how covering or uncovering holes changes pitch by changing the tube’s length. Students will summarize how the sideways flute changed over time in Europe, including added holes and keys. Students will identify changes Theobald Boehm made to flute design and how ring keys helped players. Students will describe at least two details of today’s concert flute mentioned in the passage. Key Vocabulary From the Text mammoth — an ancient animal related to today’s elephants. ivory — hard material used for carving. column — a long “tube” shape of air inside. pitch — how high or low a note sounds. octaves — sets of notes higher or lower.

Students navigate the maze, encountering branches and cul-de-sacs that build attention and planning. Most pages include a tiny follow-up box—students draw or label 2–3 target words from a small word box, add a quick count, or color in the scene—so the activity reinforces both content and skills in a highly engaging format. Each completed set includes: A themed maze page. A simple student instruction strip. An answer key showing the solved path for teacher support or self-checking Themes Included These mazes cover a wide range of fun, age-appropriate themes, including: Seasons & Holidays (e.g., Halloween, Easter, Valentine’s Day) Math-Lite Connections (e.g., quick counts, number words) Everyday Topics (e.g., Animals, Weather, School) Special Units (e.g., Health, Earth Day, Sports, Kindness) Each topic reflects students’ real-life experiences and interests while strengthening problem-solving, visual scanning, and fine-motor control in a playful, highly visual way. Easy extensions (optional): Time it: solve once in pencil, then try to beat the time in pen Retell the route using sequence words (first, next, then, finally) Count intersections or turns and graph the results Write a 1–2 sentence mini-story about the scene using the target words Design a tiny maze in the corner for a partner to solve Differentiation tips: Offer a finger-trace pass before pencils for emerging learners Highlight the borders of the correct region on first attempts Use thicker-line versions or simpler pages to build confidence Pair roles: “navigator” gives directions; “driver” traces the path For similar downloads and other frees, do check out Cored Group on TeachSimple.

This product covers the 2016 Virginia (VA) Standards of Learning (SOL) 3.14 The student will investigate and describe the concept of probability as a measurement of chance and list possible outcomes for a single event. It contains notes pages on understanding the vocabulary associated with probability. It also includes notes on spinners, probability as a fraction, listing possible outcomes, charts and tables, combinations, and probability of sets. With combinations, it uses the tree model to help determine combinations, not permutations, so these notes are more appropriate for students in 2nd-5th grade. There are practice pages for each topic, with an answer key included. The notes pages come in two sizes. The first size is a full-page size. You can print them as-is, or you can print them two to a pages. This is what I do as it saves on paper and the sheets will fit in a notebook. The second size is formatted to fit on a standard composition notebook page. Additionally, there are two links included in the pdf: one which opens a digital version of the notes, and another that opens a slide show version, optimized for a projector or interactive board. In both cases, which you click the link, you will be prompted to make a copy, which you can then use with Google Slides or download and use with Keynote or PowerPoint. Included in this set of notes pages: Probability Vocabulary Probability with Spinners Quick Check Probability as a Fraction Probability of a Set Probability on a Number Line Fair or Not Fair with Spinners Charts and Tables and Probability Possible Outcomes list Possible Outcomes Quick Check Combinations Combinations Practice Mixed Probability Quick Check Need more probability, patterns, and statistics math notes?

These facts are fun, and the students will enjoy learning about the subject before reading more. 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. 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. 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. Extension Activities This page is optional for fast finishers. If there are five to ten minutes left at the end of the lesson, the student can choose one of three activities, each one requiring a different skill.

Narrative Writing Workshop
ELA, Writing, Grade 2, 3, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
Students love to tell stories - especially about themselves! Helping students learn how to put these stories in a well-organized format can prove challenging for them from time to time. Because of that, we want to be intentional about what lessons we are teaching and how engaging we are making these lessons. The more specific and step-by-step we can make the process, the better. This is a Narrative Writing Workshop that was designed for 2nd and 3rd grade students following the Common Core standards for narrative writing. In this packet you will find everything you will need to help your students complete beautiful personal narratives based on their own experiences. It includes steps for a prewrite, a first draft, proofreading and editing, an example of a finished narrative, a final draft, and a review of dialogue and how to write it. (I also used a wonderful dialogue bundle created by Teacher Treehouse, which I highly recommend for practice.) There is also paper for the prewrite and final draft. This workshop took me about 4 days to complete, using the time we would usually reserve for our reading program – about an hour to an hour and a half every day. If you have time at the end, it’s fun to see how they illustrate their narratives and/or give them an opportunity to type their narratives on the computer. If you can print them out - even better! You could even compile all the narratives into a book for the students to enjoy in their free time! I hope you enjoy!
