I have two kids working on word families right now and after scouring the internet for resources to help them practice in a game-like setting, I ended up just making my own. I've had to divide them into smaller files to offer for free on Teachers Pay Teachers, so I currently have two options featuring beginner word family fluency sheets for free. I also have my entire collection of 30 word families available in one easy download for $1.
These word family sheets are great for some aspects of speech therapy as well. Quinn (5) has a range of speech delays including some beginning and final sound deletions and these worksheets are great practice for her.
I made these without pictures, but there is enough space that your kids
can have fun drawing a picture or two to go with the group of words.
To play, have your child roll a die and read the words in the line with the same number. Repeat as many or as few times as your child wants. We do a minimum of three rolls, but probably average five.
I am a fan of keeping these sorts of activities in page protectors in binders with other activities that work on similar skills. I keep all of my short vowel words together, because it makes it so much easier to work on the skills, because I can always flip over to one more activity if they need the work and attentions can handle it.
