Ladybugs and Blends



I just added a few extra pages to our Sound Set bundle, so if you have it, re-download from your 'My Purchases' to grab the additions to the ladybug game.


Students will be motivated and challenged to identify the 22 consonant blends (that come in the initial position of words), as they help the ladybirds to fly away from the game play.

Children should learn ccvc words after learning single sounds and cvc words.

Games such as this will make that learning fun!

The second game, called 'Ladybird Leaf' will require students to match the consonant blends to words. All the words used can be sounded-out and are mostly ccvc words.

This file features a teaching tips page, 2 detailed instruction sheets, game cards and boards, 2 worksheets (for follow-up work) and 2 cover pages (to get your tubs and folders organized).


Speaking of ladybirds / ladybugs, my daughter is keenly interested in my latest 'scrappy coloring pages' AND reading through the entire collection of Beatrix Potter books in this, her first week of Summer Break.


Last night I read The Tale of Mr Jeremy Fisher to her. Mr Fisher lived amongst the buttercups at the edge of a pond. I wish he was greener, he is unfortunately not the cutest frog in the world. We giggled at the end of the story when he treated himself to a beautiful dinner - roasted grasshopper with ladybird sauce. And so, this scrappy ladybird sheet was devised!
