Children brush up on their knowledge of word families, this time with -ub words, in this creative activity. Students draw from a word bank of -ub words to fill in the blanks of five sentences, then use their imagination to draw a picture of each sentence. They then select -ub words to compose and illustrate a sentence of their own! Created for a first grade literacy curriculum, this resource lends well to a lesson on spelling patterns and short vowel word families.
