Are your children ready to work on spelling short u words? You can download this free beach-themed resource with sand bucket letters to help students practice their spelling skills. These words will all be CVC words.
Your children can use this digital practice for working on spelling words. This is perfect for children learning at home or teachers looking for practice that can be done virtually or at a technology center.
This downloadable game will give your children practice with short u words that are CVC words.
Examples of included short u words are hug, sun, bug, run, mug and cut.
This set of short u words are good beginning spelling words. The reader is able to sound out and hear each individual sound.
This digital practice activity is being shared in two formats. You will be able to download this free resource as either a PowerPoint or you can access the Google Slides version using your Google Drive.
Each slide in this game contains a picture of a word containing a short u sound. There are also eight assorted lowercase letters to the right. Children will find one vowel and then seven consonants.
To play the game, children will click on the buckets with letters on them and then drag them to the boxes.
Once the letters have been placed in the boxes, your students can drag the sun to the side. The correct spelling of the word is hidden under the sun. This makes the game self checking.
If you choose not to have the answer available to students, follow this step. You will be able to simply delete the spelling of the word and the sun image.
Because the pieces in the game are movable, I suggest saving an original copy before letting students begin working. This way, you will have a fresh version once students have moved the pieces.

Hi, I can't edit the google slide so we can't click and move the letters.
