Reading Tips -ip
Here are some quick and fun ways to use this
story to help children learn the word family -ip.
Explain to children that you are going to read a story that has many words with the -ip sound,
made by the letters I and P. All these words belong to a group called a word family.
Ask children to find the -ip word ending at the top of the front cover. Review aloud with children the
sound these two letters make together. Can they find two words in the title with the -ip sound?
Flip over the book and read the story summary on the back cover. Ask children to point out the
words they hear with the -ip sound. Explain that the story you are about to read includes many
more words that end in -ip. Can they help you find them?
Read aloud the story once for pleasure and enjoy the whimsical illustrations. Then reread the
book, emphasizing the -ip word ending in the appropriate words. Ask children to listen closely and
identify all the words that end in -ip (they might raise their hand or clap when they hear one, or
you might choose a volunteer to point to the word on the page). As they do so, make a list on
chart paper of all the -ip words.
Write each of the words from your list on an unlined index card. Use a different color for -ip than
the rest of the word. Read each word on the cards with children. On another reading of the story,
distribute the cards to children and have them hold up their card as their word is read.
Pages 14–15 of the book feature 10 riddles with

answers that require a word ending in -ip. Read each Other words in
riddle aloud and have children volunteer answers.
the -ip family:
Read aloud the cheer on page 16 several times, with chip ship
lots of energy and enthusiasm. Invite children to join
clip snip
you in reciting the cheer when they feel ready (you
might even choose a “cheerleader”). lip unzip
nip comic strip
quip fingertip
