Practice vowel diphthongs

We are one of the experienced teachers who created this set of diphthong worksheets to help students practice their knowledge of diphthongs. Diphthongs are essential to phonetics, and understanding them is crucial for effective communication in any language. Diphthong is a complex vowel sound that begins with one vowel sound and flows into another within the same syllable. In this set of worksheets, students need to look at a set of pictures and say the word. Next, they will need to color in the pictures that contain a certain assimilation and write them on the lines.

How to use these worksheets in the classroom

Using worksheets like these to help students recognize different vowel diphthongs through pictures and color coding can be an engaging and effective way to enhance their understanding of phonics. Below is a suggested step-by-step lesson plan for assimilation where these worksheets can be used:

Depending on the phonics software used in your school, you may want to focus on one diphthong, or you may want to use two diphthongs that make the same sound, such as oi and oy.

Introduce the diphthong you will focus on and use the slides that focus on that specific diphthong in this set of diphthong teaching slides.

Add diphthongs to your Diphthong sound wall with mouth expression pictures to help students visually.

Before distributing the worksheets, model the activity for the students. Choose some examples from the worksheet and explain how to identify the diphthongs in each word.

Distribute worksheets to each student. Make sure they have coloring materials, such as colored pencils, ready to use.

Promote a collaborative environment by allowing students to work in pairs or small groups.

Circulate the classroom to provide assistance and guidance as needed.

Gather the students to review their answers as a class
