One of the most engaging activities in my classroom over the last 20+ year has been Secret Sentences. Students LOVE to solve a secret mystery, and even better when they are practicing their letter sound knowledge at the same time!
We begin with simple words. We use word tiles, scrabble tiles, or homemade tiles with n
As shown, student place tiles to match the FIRST SOUND of each little picture.
They can also use dry erase marker on the cards shown and choose their own amounts to assign each letter!
They record all the words and decide who is the winner!
Let me know if you do anything like this with your students!
