Free digraphs and CCVC Pop to Spell cards. Students say the word, pop each sound, and write the matching word for phonics fluency.
These Digraphs and CCVC Pop to Spell Cards combine tactile fun with structured phonics instruction. Students look at the picture, say the word, pop each sound using fidget poppers or pop blocks, and then spell the complete word in writing. This multisensory routine strengthens phoneme-grapheme mapping, spelling, and fluency while staying aligned with the science of reading.
Example words: shop, thin, whip, crab, sled, twig, drum, clap
Students say the word, pop the sounds, and spell it in writing
Uses color-coded support: green = beginning consonant/digraph, yellow = vowel, red = final consonant/digraph

Ideal for small-groups, literacy centers, or at-home review
Flexible for use with Amazon pop blocks, fidget poppers, or Play-Doh counters
This resource ensures students get repeated, meaningful practice with digraph and CCVC words while making phonics feel interactive and fun.
