Phonics Activity Book Part 4 – Diphthongs & R-Controlled Vowels | Ages 5–7

Your child has mastered the basics — now it's time to tackle the trickier sounds. Phonics Activity Book Part 4 covers diphthongs and r-controlled vowels through 98 pages of structured, engaging activities designed for kids ages 5–7.

Phonics Activity Book Part 4 is the final book in the Magical Kids Learning Series. It builds on the skills from Parts 1–3 and introduces the more advanced vowel patterns that children need to become fluent, independent readers.

What's Inside:

98 pages of activities organized across four focused sections:

Section 1 – Diphthongs (au/aw, ou/ow, oi/oy, ew, oo) Learn the "gliding vowel" sounds — where your mouth moves from one vowel to another within a single syllable. Activities include successive blending, word building, this-or-that spelling choices, fill-in-the-blank, and spell-the-word exercises with visual cues.

Section 2 – Diphthongs Review Spell checks, color-coded sorting, and mixed review activities that solidify all diphthong patterns before moving on.

Section 3 – R-Controlled Vowels (ar, er, ir, or, ur) Meet "Bossy R" — the consonant that changes how vowels sound. Kids learn each r-controlled pattern through poster charts, I-spy coloring, read-and-fill sentences, missing letter puzzles, and hands-on spelling practice.

Section 4 – R-Controlled Vowels Review Correct-the-spelling challenges, read-and-change word swaps, comprehension passages, and cover-the-vowel games that bring all five r-controlled patterns together.
