Each lined sheet of reproducible stationery is in the shape of an object or creature whose name includes the featured vowel, blend, or digraph. You’ll find a unicorn for long u, a frog for short o, a clown, dragon, and snowman for blends, a phone and a shell for digraphs, and many more. The illustration provides a frame for students’ writing and gives them an image to link to the sound. Below each image is a short word bank to provide additional examples of words that include the same sound and spark ideas for a variety of writing assignments. Emergent writers might expand the word bank and draw a small illustration for each word. More advanced writers might write short stories, poems, letters, or even tongue twisters! Additional ideas for using the stationery sheets in learning-rich activities appear in the next section.

Phonics Stationery helps reinforce long and short vowels, as well as several consonant blends and digraphs. In this book, the term blend is used to describe both the spoken and written form of the letter clusters in which each consonant sound is heard. A digraph is a cluster of consonants that stand for one sound. These pages are designed for flexible use. In addition to their primary function as stationery, they can also be used in many different lessons, games, and activities. Suggestions are provided below, but you and your students are bound to develop your own unique ways to put Phonics Stationery to use in your classroom. Resources How to Use This Book drive drum dream dress dragon draw Resources DIGRAPH ph Scholastic Teaching Phonics Statione ry Look through the table of contents to choose a stationery sheet for a particular vowel, blend, or digraph that you would like to reinforce, for example st. Before distributing the stationery sheets, introduce children to the format with a mini-lesson such as the one that follows for the s-blend st. Resources Getting Started Word Ban k phone alp habet ele phant lau gh nephew photo 31 4 Phonics Stationery © Scholastic Teaching Resources 1. Write the letters st on chart paper. Ask if anyone can identify the letters and say the sounds they represent. 2. Below the letters, write the word star and draw a picture. Blend the word out loud, sweeping your finger beneath each letter. Ask a volunteer to come up and underline or highlight the letters st and say the sounds they represent. 3. Enlarge the st stationery sheet and display it. You might cover up or cut off the word bank for this step. Have the class brainstorm a list of words that begin with st as you record the words on the sheet. 4. Give each child a copy of the st stationery sheet. Challenge students to list words that begin with st. (You might have children list words that include rather than begin with the featured sound.) They can choose words from the class-generated list or choose other words. Have students draw a small illustration for some or all of the words. 5. Ask children to work with a partner and make up sentences about the words on their list. Challenge them to include as many words as they can in a single sentence. Encourage children to be imaginative and even a little silly as they think of ways to incorporate the words on the list into a few sentences. (It might be necessary to conduct a similar mini-lesson to introduce vowels and digraphs.) 6. When children are ready for more of a challenge, have them write sentences on their stationery sheet that include words with the featured sound. You might also have them write letters, poems, riddles, tongue twisters, or descriptions inspired by the illustration on the stationery sheet. Word Bank backpack black Imaginary Journeys Create a list of real or imaginary locations to accompany the blends. For example, you might write Florida, Pleasantville, Snowflake Mountain, Starfish Cove, and Swan Lake. Or you might let students explore maps and globes to generate their own list. Next, tell students to put on their “walking shoes” and accompany you on a trip. Taking turns, describe what you “see” on your way to each location. You might start the class off by stating, “On our flight to Florida I saw a flag, but that’s not what Sally saw. Let’s hear what Sally saw.” Sally would then repeat what you saw, describe a new fl sight, and call on someone else. She might say, “On our flight to Florida, Ms. Smith saw a flag and I saw a flattened fly, but that’s not what James saw. Let’s hear what James saw.” Have a student come to the chalkboard and record the items that have been seen. When the class gets stumped for new words, change to a different blend and start again with students who have not yet had a turn. Word Builders Make a set of pink flashcards with a blend or digraph on each. Make another set of blue flashcards with a word family on each, such as: -ick -eck -ace -ip -ag -im -ed -op -ight -ot -in -ain Let students work in pairs to create as many words as they can by combining one pink and one blue card. You might also have students create “new” words and give them original definitions. Ask volunteers to stand in front of the class and present the invented words with exaggerated movements. Have them place the beginning sound in one hand and the ending sound in the other. Instruct themtrack to say each rack snack tack Phonics Stationery © Scholastic Teaching Resources 5 sound separately while holding up the appropriate card, and then to blend together the sounds. Phonics Collage Posters Display several large sheets of posterboard around the classroom. Attach a sheet of stationery to each sheet of posterboard. Distribute magazines to students and let them work alone or in pairs to find and cut out images whose names feature each displayed vowel, blend, or digraph. After allowing time to find some images, have students share what they have cut out. If an image fits with a displayed sound, invite the student to glue or tape the image to the appropriate poster and to write the name of the image beneath the picture. example, you might use the long e stationery (tree) for a unit on trees or as part of a seasonal study. The sn stationery of a snowman works well for winter, short a (basket) for spring, and long o (boat) and digraph sh (shell) for summer. You might also tie the stationery into children’s experiences at school. For example, children could write about their experience in a school performance on the s-blend sheet of a stage. Or you could compile all of the animal images to form a phonics zoo. Have fun as you find ways to use the stationery in ways that best meet the needs of your students.

For this activity, you will also need a soft foam ball and a large open space. Select enough stationery sheets so that each child has one and place these sheets in a large circle on the floor. Ask children to select a sheet and stand or sit behind it. Toss the ball to a student. Explain that this student should say the sound(s) represented by the vowel, blend, or digraph in front of him or her. For a greater challenge, have students say one or more words that begin with or include this sound. Once a player completes a turn, the player tosses the ball to someone who has not yet had a turn.
