Un Word Family Flip Book

Say each picture name and stretch the ending so your child hears the family. Help with cutting on the wheels and flip books, then let your child read each new word aloud.

Color, trace and cut apart cards to build an un word family flip book with bun and sun. The directions on the page read: Color each picture. Then, trace each letter. Then, cut out the two cards on the dashed lines. On page 2: Ask a grown-up to help. Trace the un ending. Then, cut out the base on the dashed line. A grown-up staples the cards on the two black marks. Then, flip each card and read the word. Then, trace each word you made.

Yes, both. We made it for Kindergarten word families, 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. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.

A word family is a group of words that end the same way and rhyme, like cat, hat and bat in the at family. Kindergartners learn that changing the first letter makes a new word.

The at, an, ig, og and un families, with words like cat, man, pig, dog and sun. Every word has a picture, so children can work from the picture and the sound.

Help your child cut out the pieces. A wheel turns so a new first letter shows next to the ending, and a flip book stacks letter cards on the ending. Each time a new word appears, your child reads it aloud and traces it.

The eight practice pages have an answer key. The two word family wheels and two flip books are cut and build activities with no answer key.
