Bread and Butter Sandwich Blends are a great addition to the CVC word builder.
Play-based word builder fun with sandwich letters. CVC Cheese Sandwiches are a good place to start. Use consonant letters and cheese vowels to build consonant-vowel-consonant patterns. Students can learn the imports of vowels by starting with two consonant bread letters that can not make a real word without putting a cheese vowel in the middle.
Some people like to add butter to the bread and that is where the blends come from. Two consonant letters make up a consonant blend. Sample this with a free download here.
Or add the Vowel Teams with CVVC peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Let students order sandwiches from the word list menus. Consonant bread letters with the best team-up peanut butter and jelly vowels.
