How can we teach Phonics in an interactive way to our students? You guessed that right, through some fun activities:

A CVC word is a single-syllable three-phoneme (sound) word that follows the pattern of consonant sound, vowel sound, and consonant sound.
Sight words are the words that appear most frequently in our reading and writing as these are common words that a child recognize instantly without sounding them out.
A blend contains two consonants but they each make one sound such as /s/ and /l/ -two different consonants but when they are together they make one sound /sl/ ( st, fl, sp, sk, gr, sw etc). Think about the word SLIDE, you can clearly hear the sound of /s/ and /l/ separately, here they both keep their sounds.
A diagraph contains two letters that combine together to correspond to make one sound such as /sh/ /wh/ /ch/ /th/. Think about the word SHEEP, you can hear that /sh/ makes one sound.
