Trick-or-treat your way into phonics! These 45 Halloween Boom Cards help PreK and kindergarten students hear the first sound of a word and match it to its letter, with pumpkins, cauldrons, a haunted house and lots of friendly Halloween pictures. Every card reads its directions aloud, so non-readers can work on their own, and the cards check every answer. Inside this resource: - 8 cards: look at the picture and click the missing beginning letter, or the word that names it - 8 cards: pick the pumpkin with the beginning letter of one or two pictures, in lowercase or uppercase - 7 cards: find the picture that starts like another one, the one that starts differently, or all the pictures that start the same - 11 cards: sort pictures into letter cauldrons, drag the right picture into the haunted house, or drag the first letter into a word - 11 cards: type the first letter of a picture, or of three words that start with the same sound - Tap-to-hear pictures on the sound matching and pumpkin cards Along the way, children isolate the beginning sound of spoken words, connect consonants and short vowels a, e and u with their letters, recognize uppercase and lowercase letters, and tell apart letters that look or sound alike, such as b and d, m and n, f and v, or q, g and p. How to use them: Use them in October literacy centers, small groups, morning work, as a quick phonics check, or as fun Halloween practice at home.
