Word Wheels: Idea #264

Have you ever seen a word wheel? Word wheels are a great way to help students learn how to read. Each word wheel focuses on a different word family (like -ad, -it, and -ed). All you do is turn the wheel to make different words in the particular word family. Since all of the words end the same, the only difference is what letter(s) are found in the beginning.

Check out this website to find free printable word wheels. Once your student has been introduced to word wheels, you will see how effective they are in helping your student learn how to read. Enjoy!
