Lollipops

Freebie

I came up with these little lollipops for my firsties that were

struggling with long and short vowel sounds. I needed a quick way to
assess their understanding during my phonics mini lessons in reading
groups. The best part, they are super easy to make and the kids LOVE
them. To make them, all you need is to print out the two sides of the
lollipop {long and short} from my freebie and glue them back-to-back
on the tongue compressor size stick. Give each student a response
lollipop. I would say a word and then give students a few seconds to
listen to it and they would repeat it. Then I would say Lollipops Up!
the students would show me long or short on their lollipops
depending on the vowel sound. My kiddos took this very seriously and
made up rules that their lollipops had to be very still on the table
before I said the word and they had to look straight ahead so no
peeking at their neighbors lollipop !. It is a super easy, super quick
check for student understanding or practice. I even had early finishers
asking if they could use the lollipops with a partner and they would try
and stump each other.
**Note- To make this idea a bit more versatile, I have also included
Response Lollipop template sets for True/False Yes/No and a
blank one. Choose your type!
