Beginning Sounds Matching and Contractions Activities

It's time for two new word work activities!

First up is a beginning sounds matching game that goes along with a word sort that includes beginning sounds K, QU, TW, WH.

Students will need a copy of the document so that they have editing rights. This allows them to move the cards once they have made a match.

To play the game, students will click on a card from the game board. It will take them to a slide with an image. They determine the beginning letter sound, then click on the arrow to go back to the game board. They then click on another card on the game board to try and find another image with the same beginning letter sound. If the 2 cards have the same beginning letter sound, they will move the 2 cards over to the grey area. The players continue taking turns until all of the cards have been matched.



The second activity is a drag and drop activity working on contractions.

The students will look at the two words inside of the heart and find the contraction that matches the two words. They drag the arrow on top of the heart.

This is an activity that can be assigned to the students through Google Classroom or something similar and then they would turn it in when it is done to be checked. If you just want it to be an independent activity, I have included an answer key that you could share with students to check their work after they are done.

Make sure to delete the answer key from the copy you assign to students! :-)
