It's hard to express how much I love Elkonin boxes. They are useful in so many situations. I can pop a picture up on the SmartBoard and as a whole group we sound out the word counting phonemes, draw the boxes and fill them in to create the word. I can print out pictures like the one shown above, laminate and practice or reteach with small groups or one-on-one during RtI or small group time. The students love working with them during Work on Words in our Daily 5 time.
All of my Working with CVC Word Family activities have this Elkonin boxes activity with picture cards, letter tiles and assessment sheets. Due to the fact I LOVE them so much I created products consisting of the Elkonin boxes (or phoneme boxes, as I often call them) for each short vowel.
