First Grade Mini Literacy Pack: From Words to Stories (Word Endings s, ed, ing)

Help your 1st grader read longer words with endings! S can mean more than one, like cups. Ing means something is happening now, like jumping. Ed means it already happened, like jumped. Your scholar also learns that ed has three sounds: "t" in jumped, "d" in played, and "ed" in rested.

What's inside (10 printable pages)

• A Grown-Up Guide and Toolkit, so you know exactly what to say and do

• Hear It: count the sounds in words with endings

• Map It: match each sound to its letters, with a special box for the ending

• Blend It: read the word first, then add the ending, plus a Switch It word ladder

• Read It: a short decodable story, The Big Catch

• Understand It: pick, order, and draw to show understanding

• Write It (2 pages): sort ed words by their sound, spell them, and write a full sentence

Your scholar will practice

• Reading and writing words with s, ed, and ing, like jumps, rested, and fishing

• The heart words come and some

• A new vocabulary word: patient
