Puzzle Me Words. Puzzle Me Words is a fun, educational game designed for kindergarten and first-grade students.

Puzzle Me Words

The game reinforces letter sounds by having students combine letters to form words for the pictures they see (e.g., pig and hat). Scootie, a talking school bus, reads the words aloud, further reinforcing the letter sounds. As students complete each round, they earn a new puzzle piece toward their prize puzzle: a coloring sheet that they can print, color, and display proudly at home or in school. Two levels are offered in the game: Word Family Sort. This online activity is designed for beginning and struggling readers to help them recognize word patterns and learn about onset and rime.

Word Family Sort

Students are first asked to select a vowel, and are then presented with a series of words to sort into short-vowel word families. Students can then print their completed word family chart and use it to practice reading the words fluently. Guide to special needs apps.
