Consonant Digraphs Phonics Digital Word Work Building Resource Google Slides Use

Are you looking for some hands-on phonics activities to teach digraphs, but you don't have hours to laminate and cut-out word work cards? These hands-on, no prep paperless word work cards will save you time and provide students with so many hands-on activities for covering digraphs! This innovative, paperless resource for digraphs provides differentiated levels for word work!

This resource is now included in both Google Slides and PowerPoint, so that it is versatile for use in many classrooms.

Did I also mention this resource for phonics can be used on tablets? Say what? Yup, you can use this on a tablet, computer, or you can even project them onto an interactive whiteboard!*

Not only that, but this resource stands out from simple phonics games on tablets because it automatically saves their work when used with Google Slides or PowerPoint online. That means accessibility to view their phonics work for assessment purposes and more!

Do you need to cover more phonics skills? Check out my extreme bundle here that contains this resource for ending blends and many others by clicking here.

If you already use Google™ Classroom, you only need to simply assign students a file and you are set! It is simple like handing them a sheet of paper. I have broken these down into chewable chunks of 12-48 word work cards per a file and there is plenty to choose from for differentiating your phonics instruction too.

If you are using the ones in PowerPoint format, you can also easily assign to your students via a learning management system or Microsoft Teams.

If you are not using an LMS, you can easily use a folder system in Microsoft OneDrive. (Please see tech specs below.)

If you are using it for teacher led instruction, you can use Google Drive also. Simply open the file and use it. You can project it with either an interactive whiteboard or use a tablet or computer with a small group.

What I LOVE about using Online Digital Resources:

•Paperless

•Their work saves automatically!

•Because their work saves automatically, I can easily check their phonics work (and not bring home a heavy bag full of paper clutter!)

•They can't glue the expensive magnetic letters to a paper card, but they can save those digital magnetic letters on that card for easier assessing!

•Kids love using technology. It's engaging, phonics activities!

•It is still hands-on like a real word work card with magnetic letters. They still have to slide those letters on that card for developing their phonics skills.

•All the letters are ALREADY organized! No messing with a bunch of letters in smeared, labeled baggies. This makes it so much easier for differentiating your phonics instruction without having to do a thing, except assign the appropriate file to each student! Easy, simple, bam! Now, that is what I am talking about!

What about differentiation? For emerging, I paired letters together such as bl, ay, ow, etc. For intermediate levels, I upped the challenge by only providing individual letters that the students will need to pair together. For students who need even more challenge, they can type a sentence with the word on the slide.

***Technical Requirements***

This resource is included in both PowerPoint and Google Slides formats to make it versatile for many classrooms.

You will need one of the following:

Option A: Google Classroom

Option B: PowerPoint (Desktop or Laptop version)

Option C: The PowerPoint app from the app store with access to Microsoft 365 and a way for students to access the files online such as via Microsoft OneDrive or a compatible LMS.

(Note: Microsoft offers Office 365 free to those with an eligible school email. That will include access the PowerPoint online and Microsoft OneDrive.)

*For Interactive Whiteboard/ Smartboard use: To use any dragging/dropping features, your interactive whiteboard will need the feature that performs mouse functions with touch in programs outside of their software. Basically, the touch feature takes the place of how you would use a mouse in other applications such as Google Slides, PowerPoint, surfing the internet, etc.

Please make sure you have the tech requirements needed for how you plan to use this resource before buying this resource.

FAQs

1. I already purchased one of the resources in the bundle, can I upgrade to the bundle? Absolutely. The route TPT does this is to refund you for the resource that is in the bundle after you purchase the bundle, but you will need to reach out to them for this. You don't even need to ask my permission since that counts as a duplicate purchase under their refund policy. You can simply put in a ticket here.

2. Is there a limit to how many devices I can use this on? You can use this with every single student in your classroom. The license allows for use to all your students in your classroom, but you will need an extra license for each additional teacher.
