Are you looking for an activity that will keep your entire class engaged? This activity helps your students to learn oa, ow while working with each other.
Before using this activity, I like to use my oa, ow picture and word sort or oa, ow word sort. This will give students the opportunity to practice with the skill before giving them just the pictures.
When I do this activity, I will first start by placing the oa and ow in a pocket chart. I will place them in a way that will allow them to be categorized. Then I will show the pictures and ask students which category the picture should go under. I make sure that all of the pictures go under the correct category. The next thing I do is take all of the pictures out of the pocket chart and give one card to each student. I will then call one student at a time to come put the picture under the correct category. I like doing my lesson in this order because it gives students the opportunity to work with me before I have them try to figure it out on their own.
Here some more detailed information about this activity.

Black and White Word Cards

in this activity. You can either send
the cards home or create games using the cards like Memory or Go Fish.
Lesson Plan
-I
created a lesson plan that could be used for this literacy activity. The lesson plan comes with common core state
standards, and ideas on how to use this activity.
Video Ideas and Books that Teach oa and ow
-I
wrote down videos that cover oa and ow. I also wrote down books that you can read
that will help emphasize oa and ow.
Here
is an example on how to use this activity: I play several games with word cards as a whole group. The main games that I play that my students
love is mingle and 2 circle game. Mingle
is where you give each student a card.
You start the game by saying “mingle”.
Students will walk around the room until you say stop. When you say stop, students are to find the
closest person to them to partner up with.
They read their card to them and then switch cards. I repeat this game until students lose
interest. The 2 circle game is where I
have students get into 2 circles (an inner and outer circle). When they get into their circle they make
sure that they have a partner that faces them.
Students read their card to their partner and switch cards. Then I have the inner circle move to the
right one time. Continue to do this
until students have made a complete circle.
Common Core State Standards that are covered in
