Preschool Practice: Word Family Worksheets

It feels like forever since I taught in the classroom, 

but now working with my kids at home it reminds me how much I loved it...and miss it.

My son is in preschool and loves reading.  He's just beginning; so as we are learning the basic skills of reading. 

And we are currently focusing on Word Families.

We talk about how they rhyme and how they look alike and how it is a "trick,"

 if you know the family, you can read all the words and read them fast.

So we have been playing lots of fun games, but to further practice the skills, I made some word family worksheets. 

After scribbling them on random papers for him to practice each day, I figured I should just print some up.

*TIP:  I love Plastic Worksheet Covers!  I got mine from the Target Dollar Bins last fall, but even a plastic sheet protector would work.  Then just use dry erase markers or crayons and the worksheet can be used over and over.
