Spelling Word Sort Activities and Games

Long E-Sound Word Sort Activities and GamesOur family has used All About Spelling (affiliate link) for many years. It lays out various spelling rules in a really clear, easy to follow manner.  I’ve found that the kids also enjoy doing activities and games to help reinforce what they have learned. (Find out more about why we love the AAS program so much at this post.)

This is a new packet I made for ED as she works on those Long-E word patterns. She’s been reviewing words like receive, bleed, reach, shield, real, cloudy, ceiling, believe, etc.

We’ve been saying the rule: ie before e except after c, except when said “ay” as in neighbor and weigh – a lot in the past couple of weeks! (She learned the tricky spellings of eigh a while back when we did the activities in the Long A sound packet.)

Word Sort, Independent Work: Often, I have ED sort the words while I’m running around and trying to get the other two settled with whatever they are working on. (If I’m running behind, I’ll have her do some of the other spelling word sort activities too… like the ou/ow, au/aw, oy/oi words or whatever.)

Here is the sorting mat and word cards using the Long “e” sound:

Long-E-Sound-Spelling-SortThen, we move on to some games!  The great things about these activities is that she *begs* to keep playing! And not only that, my older two will often come to join in as well.  Gotta love that, right?! We usually play a round or two of the board game:

To Play the Board Game: 

  • For younger kids let them look at the card, read it, and go to the first space available with the spelling that matches their card.
  • For more advanced kids, read the word for them and have them identify which space they should go to. For example, read the word “perceive” aloud and have them tell you that they need to go to the “ei” space.
  • The first player to land on the last space in the center of the board wins the game.

Long e Sound Game e ea ei ie ey yI made her some bingo cards as well. What a HUGE hit these are! We take sure reading the word-cards and try to be the firs to get 5 in a row. (Sometimes we’ll make the rule that you have to get two rows before you can call out bingo.)
