A vowel digraph is two vowels that spell one of the vowel sounds in the team such as /ea/ spells the –e sound in ‘eat’.  The four diphthongs vowel teams are /ou/, /ow/, /oi/ /oy/. Together these four vowel teams create their own unique sounds. The words used in this packet target the common vowel combinations that create vowel digraphs and diphthongs.

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON - “Present Perfect”

by Rike Neville
7th - 12th Grade


Allowing students to discover grammar rules by working together in cooperative learning groups both decreases teacher talk and instills deductive reasoning skills. When students can articulate rules in their own words, they own them and will be more like to both remember them and use them correctly.

In this linguistic investigation, students will work together to discover the rules for using "for" and "since" in the present perfect.

Students don't often have many chances to speak in grammar classes other than to ask questions, so linguistic activities are a great way to get them talking! They'll reason with each other, agree and disagree, and theorize. Linguistic investigations teach students how to solve their own grammar mysteries!

This activity was designed for intermediate-level adult ESL students. **UPDATE: It now includes a handout/worksheet for students to practice choosing "for" or "since" and writing their own present perfect sentences using "for" and "since".

Language Arts - "10 r-Controlled Games & Activities"

by Reading on Strawberry Lane (Amanda Trump)

Grades 1-3








This unit is a package of 10 activities and games that are designed to make it easy for students to learn to read r-controlled syllable type words. There are 6 syllable types, and r-controlled is one of the six types. These syllables are called –r-controlled because the –r is in control and the vowel is out of control when sounding out the word. Instead, of the vowels making their normal sounds, the –r decides for them what sound the vowel is going to make. Reading and spelling r-controlled words require visual memory and experience. These games will teach students a few consistent tips to remember when reading these kinds of words. There are five -r-controlled vowels--ar, -er, -ir, -or, -ur. These five vowel spellings make 4 different sounds. The packet includes 75 -r-controlled words cards and the following 10 games: 


1. Climb a Tree 
2. Grow a Centipede
3. Football Frenzy
4. Dominoes
5. Uno 
6. Clear the Board 
7. Snail Shell
8. Wild Animal Race
9. Checkers 
10. Circle Out

LANGUAGE ARTS - "Bingo with Vowel Digraph & Diphthong Words"

by Reading on Strawberry Lane 

Grades 1-3



This fun game of BINGO gives students practice differentiating between vowel digraphs and vowel diphthong syllables.  A vowel digraph is a syllable that has two vowels glued together whose sound will say one of the vowel sounds.  A vowel diphthong is two vowels glued together or one vowel glued to the left of the letter -w whose sound will be unique to the combination of the two letters.  After playing a few times, the students will catch on to these two different syllable types and will begin to quickly identify them and their sounds.  There are two different bingo cards for the students, and there are 96 word cards--48 vowel digraph words and 48 vowel diphthong words.

FREE SOCIAL STUDIES LESSON - “What Is A World Citizen? Activity”

by Kid World Citizen
1st - 4th Grade



The world is a diverse and interconnected place where objects, ideas, and people are constantly on the move. At Kid World Citizen, we believe we can prepare our children to be active, responsible "world citizens" by teaching them about a variety of cultural practices and beliefs. This activity uses one of our videos as a springboard for a discussion about what it means to be a "world citizen." Students can then use the coloring sheet to write or draw about their role in our global society. This is a great beginning of the year activity, writing prompt, or bulletin board display.
