The problem
You know the Sunday-night activity hunt.
Little kids learn by doing. Finding good, printable things for them to do is the hard part.
Free sites, mismatched sets
Twenty tabs open, four different styles, and half the pages are previews. A child notices the mess before you do.
Pages sized for somewhere else
A4 pages crop or shrink on a US printer. Every page here is set to US Letter, 8.5 × 11 in.
Activities that miss the age
A page meant for an older child ends in frustration. Each set here is labeled with the grades it fits.
So we made the file we wanted to find: 252 252 Silent E u_e & e_e Phonics Task Cards, in one print-ready PDF.
