Phonics Fun!

I was just looking around for some online reading games.  Here are a few you may want to try.  :)

THIS IS NOT AN ONLINE HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT!  THIS IS FOR FUN AND EXTRA PRACTICE.  :)

For practice with consonant-vowel-consonant words, here is a site that offers a few options.  When you get to the site, you will need to select the red box that says 'game'.  In Concentration, you will match the picture to the word.  If you select Collect the Stars, you will be given a picture and a keyboard.  You will need to tap and then build the word.  The last game option at this site is called Shoot Out.  You will read a word and then "shoot" the picture that matches.  If you choose the 'quiz' option, you will need to choose the correct vowel to complete each word.  Have fun!

Dinosaur Eggs Phonics is a fun way to practice the digraphs 'sh', 'ch', and 'th'.  You can also practice other sounds that we have not covered yet.  This would be a wonderful way to extend your learning!  The only issue that I have found with this game is that the words are being said by someone with a British accent.  Some words are more difficult to understand than others.
