Roll a Word: Vowel Digraphs: Long E

Give students word-building practice using the long E vowel digraph with this hands-on worksheet! A vowel digraph refers to two letters that combine to make one sound, as heard in the word seen and team. In this engaging, open-ended worksheet, students will explore the ee and ea vowel teams as they use dice and their phonics skills to create and decode words. The roll of the dice will determine which word ending to add to each beginning letter, and then students will need to determine if each of the words they have built is a real word or a nonsense word! Geared toward first- and second-grade learners, this worksheet is a fun way to prepare students for decoding and reading words fluently in grade-level texts.
