Interactive Word Family Wall

When thinking of a way to display word families in my classroom I decided that instead of the word families essentially becoming a decoration in the classroom, I wanted them to be interactive for the students. So I cut out a cat and pan (with my die-cutting machine) and glued on the word family. I then laminated the shapes and put a Velcro square at the beginning of the word family. I then attached Velcro squares to all the beginning letters that could fit with that word family so students could try out different beginning sounds.I also included blank letter squares that students could create other other words they think of or nonsense words.
