This week the students have been taking their understanding of silent e and utilizing it to make words based off of words they know and can read. Using letter tiles the students created words with silent e. An example would be being able to make the word "take" and then changing out the first sound to spell other words like "snake, lake, flake, shake". If you have scrabble or bananagrams at home this is an excellent activity for them to do to make connections between words.
They also read through their just right books and found words with the silent e. They then recorded the word in their book and generated other words they could spell using that initial word from their just right book.
