Great Independent Literacy Activities
Check out Puzzle Center for puzzles to play and/or create! The word shape puzzle is great for primary grades. Enter your word wall words, vocabulary words from stories or content areas, or find a puzzle that correlate with other classroom activities.
Check out Clifford Games for making words, matching letter sounds and words, and more!
Starfall has many leveled online activities that teachers love. Check out their print resources, too.
Although I don't think I would pay for these resources, the few free interactive books on Toon University that you can get for free are worth checking out!
And please... spend some time at ReadWriteThink! Check out What's in the Bag? and Word Family Sort you'll find great working with word activities. But don't forget about the numerous tools for writing poems and the book makers!
Favorites from Read Between the Lions
| Pounce on the word that makes the sound. |
| Type in the missing letter of the alphabet in AB Cow. |
| In Chicken Stacker, stack five hens by clicking on words with short vowel sounds. The game starts with letter A. Click on "Next Game" to get to letter e, i, o, and u. |

Choose from three letters to complete the word. Fuzzy Lion Ears is great for letter/sound recognition. |
