On St. Patrick's Day we learned about the long e sound of double e (ee). We started with the words green and three (for three leaf clovers). This was a good long vowel sound to work on because it only makes one sound.
I also added some number and color sight words to his flash cards building from green and three: one, two, three, four, red, black, green, pink, yellow, and blue. I tried to use color words that are simple short vowel but added a few of his favorites as well. I did two sets of cards. To start the week I used cards that also had pictures to give him hints and then switched to plain cards with just the words by the end of the week.
I also followed up with having him read the color/number words in the directions of the other projects we did. Another fun activity that I found was a pot-of-god coloring page with easy sight words written on the gold pieces. They do them with upper or lower case letters as well if that is where you are at. You could color the pieces as the word was read correctly or it would be even better with gold stickers.
This worksheet was also a review of colors as well as ordinals.
And, of course, we had green waffles (food coloring) for dinner. Yum!
