Soundwall & Word Searches - Term 3 Year 1 (Soundwaves)

Simplify your teaching and enhance student engagement with this comprehensive Soundwall & Word Search resource, designed specifically for Year 1 Term 3 (Soundwaves Units 20-27). Perfect for busy teachers, this resource saves you time while reinforcing key phonics skills in your classroom.

What's Included:

• 7 Units (20-27) Word Flashcards: Each unit features a set of focus words for easy vocabulary building.
• Word Searches for Each Sound of the Week: Based on the focus words from the flashcards, these word searches reinforce phonemic awareness and letter-sound connections.
• Chants and Rhymes for Each Sound: To help solidify grapheme-phoneme relationships, these chants can be used to engage students in active learning.

How This Resource Helps:

As a Year 1 teacher managing 31 students, I know how overwhelming it can be to create resources from scratch. This ready-to-use resource allows you to focus on teaching while providing your students with the tools they need to succeed in phonics.

Struggling with word walls that don't align with current content?

This Soundwall system is based on Term 3 Soundwaves Units 20-27, ensuring everything is aligned with your curriculum. The focus words can be printed and displayed as a "Sound of the Week" wall, providing a visual reference for students throughout the week. I’ve found that displaying these words upfront and revisiting them helps students solidify their learning, especially when transferring the words to their sound wall.

Bonus:

• Perfect for Fast Finishers: Keep students engaged with the weekly word searches that align with the sound of the week. These are a great activity for reading group rotations or quiet time.
• Save Time & Money: Don’t miss out on our Term 1 and Term 4 individual sets or bundle semester 2 and save!! —or purchase all three for a complete set of resources for the entire year!
