Reading the Alphabet IG Word Family (Lesson 14)

By thisreadingmama 3 Comments

It’s time for our Reading the Alphabet IG Word Family lesson! You might like to check out our AT Word Family lesson, too!

See all lessons from Reading the Alphabet, my free preschool curriculum.

*Keep scrolling until the end of this post to grab the free version of Reading the Alphabet IG Word Family.

 

You can purchase our updated Reading the Alphabet Bundle Pack, stream-lined for easy downloading! It also features TONS of bonus material that you can’t find in this free version!

Reading the Alphabet IG Word Family

Lesson 14 features work on the -IG word family and a review of the letters and sight words covered in lessons 8-13. To see how we incorporated all of the activities for the week, I’ve included a 5-day lesson outline. Feel free to use it or do it your own way. 🙂

Here are some shots of my preschooler (age 4) in action:

build a word with magnetic letters {This Reading Mama}Spelling his sight words (he stuck with this MUCH longer than expected and actually spelled all of the sight words on his Word Wall!)

 

IG Word Family Bottle Cap Spelling

Spelling IG words with bottle caps-I printed off Version 2 (no onset) and he had to come up with the beginning sounds on his own as he spelled.

 

FREE Emergent Reader for IG Word FamilyWe read our emergent reader (A Big Rig) with a magnifying glass all week because of the magnifying glass in the book. 🙂  He REALLY liked this!

 

Sorting AT and IG Word Families

We reviewed the AT Word Family by sorting AT or IG in our pocket chart.  It sounded like this /p/ – /ig/ or /k/ – /at/ for each picture, as I separated and emphasized the rime (at or ig) with each word.  We actually did this activity twice back to back.  The second time, I hung back a bit more and only offered support when he needed it.

FREE Roll and Stamp a Letter Activity with Education CubeTwo of his favorite activities are the Roll and Stamp a Letter &

 

FREE Roll a Rhyme Activity with Education CubeRoll a Rhyme because he gets to throw his education cubes around.  I love his look of concentration.  {The boy LOVES his Angry Bird PJ’s!  Can you tell??  I have to bribe him to get dressed these days.}

    We have been following your Reading the Alphabet program from the first week. My son already knew all the letters and most of the sounds so we only do the printable books, some magnetic letter play, and then random sight word games for review. I am so blown away with his progress. He just turned four and he is not only knows almost 20 sight words and 2 words families but he is actually excited about reading. Seeing how proud he is makes me so so so happy. When he showed an interest in learning to read I had no clue where to begin. I came across Reading the Alphabet in a pinterest board I had previously made. I am so glad we started it. This has been so helpful and we love the slow steady progression and the review days and bits of phonics. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
