Looking to see if your child has mastered o-e words? Try this free worksheet pack!
Today I’ve got a set of ten free worksheets for practicing short o and o-e words.
But first – my standard disclaimer!
Worksheets do not teach. They test. Please be sure that you’ve done a lot of hands-on learning before doing these worksheets with your child or students.
And no worries – I’ve got lots! (And they’re all free!)
- Fold and read cards for o-e
- Four in a row games for o-e
- Follow the path games for o-e
- Phonics books for o-e
My kindergartner and I did all these games (and read the books) before I gave him the worksheets. He really enjoys this kind of seat work and did as many pages as he could between morning kindergarten and lunch time.
I don’t recommend having your child do the entire pack – just pick and choose which ones you know he can accomplish. There are different levels of difficulty in the pack on purpose.
He started with this fill in the blank worksheets because it’s his favorite kind.
I wanted to make sure he sorted pictures by their vowel sound. He did really well with this one, too.
He glued the pictures next to their names.
After lots of work with o-e words all week, he was easily able to find the correct spellings.
He hasn’t done this kind of page before and was unsure that he could. But I told him I thought he could spell the words himself, and he did wonderfully! Without any help, he got them all correct. Not all children will be ready for this right away, even if they can read silent e words, so be sure you know your students.
Finally, this was the first time he did a drawing page. He loves to draw and create, and he did this quickly and easily. Not all children will handle this kind of page the same. I remember when his older brother tried this kind of page a year or so ago. He’s an excellent speller and artist, but he’s also a perfectionist. He completely fell apart when he didn’t know exactly how to draw each picture!
So, again… know your students. The point is to assess, not to frustrate, and you have plenty of options here. Not every one needs to do the same pages.
Enjoy the pack!
