EASYTEACHING.NET

Overview:

A foldable reading booklet focused on words in the '-ad' word family. Students trace, read, and colour. Designed for students in year 1 and year 2.

Learning Objectives:

  • Recognise and read words that belong to the '-ad' word family.
  • Practise tracing '-ad' words to reinforce spelling and letter formation.
  • Develop early reading fluency through simple sentences.

How the Activity Works:

Each page of the booklet presents a simple sentence featuring an '-ad' word (e.g., He is my dad. or The lad is happy.) alongside a matching picture. Students read the sentence, trace the '-ad' letter pattern, and colour the illustration. The booklet is folded for students to keep as a reference and reading resource.
