Breaking the Big Words Activity Book | Volume 1, Set 6

Breaking the Big Words Activity Book: Volume 1, Set 6 is a phonics resource that helps kindergarten-2nd grade students master syllabication. Students learn to divide multi-syllable words into manageable chunks to aid decoding. This activity set focuses on 2-3 syllable VC/CV and “Bossy R” words. Short vowels, digraphs, and blends within the words provide a key challenge. A series of activities engage students in identifying syllable patterns, segmenting words, and applying that knowledge while reading sentences. Supports like visual cues are utilized initially and then removed to encourage independence with the strategy. Breaking the Big Words includes new vocabulary to learn as well as review of previously-learned words. Additional practice reading and dividing decodable words and sentences provides maximum transference to actual reading. This research-based approach builds confidence as students progress from needing significant support to applying their knowledge independently. Implement whole group or provide for differentiation in small groups or as individual practice. This activity set will boost confidence and progression in reading skills.
