Phonics Skills Sample Pack
Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher
"Phonics Skills Sample Pack" is written for 1st Grade (Ages 6-7). If your little one is a year younger but already steady on phonics, the page still works. You may just need to read the instructions out loud. And if they are older and phonics skills never quite stuck, this is a short review rather than busywork.



3 pages in this set
This 1st grade resource covers cvc words and word families in 3 pages, built for quick prep and real classroom use. Part of our phonics skills phonics collection.
How do I use this resource?
Hang the vowel sounds anchor chart where 1st grade students can reference it during reading and writing time. Keep the sound mat at a phonics center for hands-on practice with digraphs, and pull out the skills sample pack for small-group or independent review of CVC words and word families. Use the true-or-false page as a quick, low-stakes check after a short read-aloud rather than a formal assessment. At home, a few minutes sounding out words next to the chart builds the same skills without feeling like homework.
What students will practice
- Gives 1st grade students visual references and short practice pages for vowel sounds, word families, and digraphs.
- Builds decoding skills through an anchor chart, a hands-on sound mat, and mixed-skills practice.

What does this resource teach?
⌄
This phonics set covers a range of early reading skills for 1st grade students, starting with an anchor chart contrasting short and long vowel sounds with clear examples. A phonics sound mat gives hands-on reference for digraphs, and a skills sample pack mixes in CVC words and word families across a few short pages. A true-or-false comprehension page adds a light reading check tied to a short passage. Together these pieces move from wall reference to active decoding practice to a quick comprehension check.
Can I use this phonics skills resource for homeschool or classroom?
⌄
Yes, both. We made it for 1st Grade phonics, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with phonics skills. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.
How many 1st Grade phonics skills resources are there?
⌄
1 printable resource, all free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are phonics skills resources for?
⌄
These are written for 1st Grade students, roughly ages 6-7. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these phonics skills resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 1st Grade classroom, a literacy centre, or a tutoring session.
