Free Football Sorting activity

This literacy sort is set up so it can be easily differentiated for your students' needs. 

Here's a few ideas to get started!

Listen and Sort – Phonemic Awareness. Students are listening to the word (read aloud) and sorting by the vowel sound. 

Read and Sort – Combine phonics AND phonemic awareness (my favorite!). Students will apply decoding skills to read each word, then decide if it has a long or short vowel sound. 

Guess My Sort – get ready for higher order thinking skills! YOU model decoding, listening, AND sorting each word. After maybe two or three examples, ask students to “guess” how the words are being sorted.

  • Is it by initial sound?
  • How about number of syllables?
  • Could it be the vowel sound? Tell me more! 

Touchdown!
