This engaging resource pack contains seven different worksheets. They are all designed to help Reception and KS1 pupils develop key literacy skills, particularly focusing on vowel combinations.
These worksheets provide a valuable opportunity for children to practise handwriting, letter formation and comprehension skills in a fun and interactive way.
Vowel worksheets
Each vowel worksheet encourages young learners to fill in missing letters or words by examining accompanying pictures. This makes the learning process both visual and hands-on.
This approach helps children strengthen their understanding of vowel sounds and how they appear in common words. It also reinforces the phonics knowledge essential for early reading and writing development.
The pack covers a range of important vowel combinations, including:
- ai as in “rain”
- ea as in “beach”
- oa as in “boat”
- oi as in “coin”
- oo as in “moon”
- ow as in “cow”
These vowel pairings are carefully chosen to expose children to different sounds and spelling patterns. The variety of exercises across the worksheets ensures that pupils can gradually build confidence in identifying and using these vowel combinations in their own writing.
Ideal for classroom use or home learning, these vowel worksheets support individual or group activities and can be adapted for differentiated learning.
Whether used as part of a phonics lesson or as an independent practice task, this resource pack is a versatile tool that enhances early literacy skills.
