A colorful chart that helps kids learn vowels and consonants
Vowels and Consonants
Goal
What are vowels and consonants? In this exercise, we will introduce the letters known as "vowels" and the other letters referred to as "consonants."
Activity Prep
Download & print the PDF below (If you'd like to show it on the screen, that sounds great, too.)
Teachers
Please review the anchor chart with the students and assist them in reading.
Since it can be overwhelming to remember all the consonants, let's focus on the vowels first.
Together, let's read "a, e, i, o, u" out loud. Additionally, asking students about the vowels in their first or last names could be a fun activity!
