Read and Dab Phonics Activities

Have your students practice reading words in a fun, hands-on way with these no-prep dabber activities. Students will search and find the grapheme in different words, read the words with the grapheme, and then mark the word with a dot marker (this can be a bingo dabber or a translucent bingo chip.)

This resource includes 55 pages of phonics read and dab practice with printable answer keys:

Please note: Most words are decodable based on the phonics rule/grapheme on the top of each page only, but a few words do contain a mixture of phonics rules/graphemes (ex: three has the "th" digraph and the "ee" vowel team and is included on the th page even though the vowel team "ee" may not have been covered yet.) This resource does include some mixed grapheme sight words on various pages. Some pages also include words with mixed graphemes due to the availability of words with the grapheme.
