Description
67 Phonics Worksheets for Older Students can be assigned through Google Classroom, or as printed copies. These phonics worksheets are designed to make the student think of the sound phonograms make even though they are working quietly with paper and pen, or a computer and a mouse. Purchasing this product gives you both the PDF version and the digital version (which you can modify). The PDF version contains worksheets, an introduction, Mentor's Notes, and answer sheets. The digital version contains only the 67 phonics worksheets with text boxes already filled in for students to type in their answers.
The 67 Phonics Worksheets for Older Students can be used to supplement any phonics program. These worksheets focus on building decoding skills through analyzing phonograms, observing syllable divisions and reinforcing spelling and pronunciation rules.
The 67 Phonics Worksheets for Older Students review six basic phonogram styles: Vc, Vcc, Vce, R-Controlled, Vvc and Diphthong-Vowels. There are also worksheets to support rules for adding suffixes, pronouncing Soft C, dividing words into syllables, -le syllables (gle, ble, ple, etc.), and words ending in tion/sion/cion.
The majority of older students who are struggling readers, have an automatic habit of guessing. 67 Phonics Worksheets for Older Students uses the following methods to help break the habit of "guessing": 1) Most worksheets are designed to have the student identify phonograms (making students observe how beginning sounds, phonograms and suffixes combine to form words). 2) Almost all worksheets show syllable divisions for multisyllable words (makes students slow down and observe instead of "whole-word guess". And 3) Several worksheets contain nonsense/pretend words.
The phonics worksheets are designed for students in 4th Grade and above. The majority of words students decode are multisyllable. Words with three or more syllables are common. The look is grown-up. There is intentionally no “cutesy” clipart that could make older students feel that they are being treated like a little child.
Answer sheets are included.
