Vowel Teams Phonics Worksheets for 1st and 2nd Grade

What your child practices

These 12 worksheets for 1st and 2nd grade (Grades 1 to 2 in Canada) cover Vowel Teams, with 116 questions of phonics practice in total. The pages go in a set order, so each one builds on what your child just practiced. Strong letter skills in the early grades free up a child's attention for reading and writing ideas, so steady, short practice pays off for years. The set runs from ai and ay: Picture Match to ue and ew: Find and Build, one skill per sheet. Each sheet supports Common Core RF.1.3c, covering phonics and decoding words. Each PDF includes its own answer key on page 2, ready for you or your child to check. Finished a sheet? The online version reads every question aloud and checks answers instantly.

Tips for parents

• Use a thick pencil or crayon for little hands, and trace with a finger first.
• Say the letter or sound aloud each time your child writes it.
• Let your child circle their best letter or word on each page.
