How do I teach “ee” and “ea”?
Updated: Aug 19
Hello parents,
Welcome to our vowel team, "ee" and "ea" vowel team pack.
This learning pack offers fun hands-on learning activities to keep your child engaged while they spell words with the 'ee' and 'ea' sounds!"
I have split this learning pack into aged 5-6 years old and 7-8 years old respectively.
However, if the child is highly advanced, regardless of age, a 5-6-year-old child can still attempt to learn the words from the 7-8 years old category.
In this learning pack, it includes a list of words to teach your child to learn to spell.
There is also a some recommended books that you can read together with your child.
5-6 years old learning activities
We read the book, "Where is the Green Sheep?" by Mem Fox. This title has been our all-time favourite since the boys were 2 years old.
From this book, I introduced to small I, the word, "green and sheep".
After learning to spell green and sheep, my 5-year-old continued to draw the green sheep on a drawing block.
This learning pack also includes a book review for your child to write down what book he/she like to read.
7-8 years old learning activities
To help your child learn how to spell the word "week" and become familiar with the days of the week, we have prepared an activity that will help to teach your child how to spell each day of the week.
My 7-year-old son became interested when he observed his brother engaged in this art and craft activity. This piqued his interest, and I encouraged him to craft a free writing about this sheep. Here are some extra recommended activity you can explore with your young ones within the comfort of your home.
On top of that, the Vowel Team, the 7-8-year-old pack includes a word sorting activity and comprehension reading pack.
