Silent Letters + Craft Activity = Silent Letter Craftivity!

Looking for a new and interesting way to consolidate your students’ understanding of silent letters? This flower craft will do just the trick! Students will love combining their literacy learning with a hands-on craft activity… with any luck, they may not even realise they’re learning!

This engaging literacy resource includes everything your students will need to create a silent letter flower. It contains two different templates to better meet the diverse learning needs of your students.

The first set should be given to students with a solid grasp of silent letters and how they are used in common words. It contains blank petals, upon which students can write silent letter words of their own choosing.

The second set should be given to students who may require additional scaffolding to complete the activity. It contains petals with pre-written silent letter words. The silent letter is missing and must be added in by the student.

How to Create Our Silent Letter Craft

Creating our silent letter craft is as easy as 1, 2, 3!

  1. Provide each student with the template that is most appropriate for their learning ability. Each student needs one yellow silent letter circle for the middle of their flower and 6-8 flower petals to attach around the circle. 
  2. Have the students write silent letter words on the blank flower petals, or fill in the missing silent letters on the pre-filled petals.
  3. When students are finished writing on their petals, have them cut them out and paste them onto the circle to create a flower.

Why not create a silent letter flowers classroom display to brighten up your bulletin board and to show off your students’ fantastic learning!
