TTCR: Starfall

Starfall is a fantastic website for supporting phonemic awareness and phonics instruction. Now that I look at it, I realize that I have seen quite a few students working on this website in the past. I like the way it is separated into different levels based on reading skills. It would be a very useful tool for me in my first grade classroom as extra practice and review of short vowels, long vowels,vowel patterns, etc. Each vowel includes a game to make words, a story that is sounded out, and even a video of how to make that vowel sound. It is a great tool that I know kids would be excited to use!!
