Foundational Reading Lesson - The Two Common Sounds of IE, Grade 2

  • Activity 1 / Reading: Long I and IE Worksheet

    The vowel combination can be used in other ways and come out sounding different, but in some cases, it can make the long /i/ sound; as found in ‘pie’. Ask your child to give you some more examples of words that have the long /i/ sound, if they can’t, help them with some common words. Now, together with your child, read each word in this worksheet aloud. Help them circle the box next to the correct word to fill in the blank.

  • Activity 2 / Reading: Long E and IE Worksheet

    When the vowels ie are put together, they can make another sound entirely, such as the long /e/ sound, which is found in the word ‘chief’. Before continuing this exercise, ask your child if they can name some of the common words with the long /e/ sound which they use every day. Then, help them read aloud all the words in this worksheet. Ask them to circle the words with this vowel combination that make the long /e/ sound.

Daughter's favorite
Still a top favorite for our 7 year old. She loves earning her stars as she learns to trace letters and numbers. Coloring and the sounds are engaging and are on target for her age group and being Pre K.

This was a really fun way to get my kids to practice their math. I usually struggle to get them into it and Kids Academy makes it easy.
