Now that we are homeschooling, I try and do everything possible to find exciting ways to teach the kids thing that might normally be kind of a bore. Right now AG is learning about onsets and rimes and the curriculum that I have for teaching it is incredibly boring. I found these AMAZING DIY cards here and had to make them for her! They took a little bit, and I still may switch them around a bit but she picked them up right away and started to use them which is a score in my book!
- Paint chips found at any store that sells paint. You will need large chips displaying only one color and strips displaying multiple colors. The large chips will be for the "onsets" and the other for the "rimes." I smuggled about 200 paint swatches out of Walmart today and must admit that I felt like a smooth criminal.
- A large square paper puncher. I was way too cheap to buy one so I made a template and used a hobby knife to cut out the squares.
- A black permanent marker.
Directions:
There really isn't a whole lot to this DIY project. All you really need to do is make sure that you have a cut out large enough on your "onset" paint chip to display your "rimes" paint chips. Decide how big your hole needs to be, cut or punch (again, I cut by making a template from one of the "rime" chips), and write your onset and rimes accordingly!
