Christmas Beginning Digraph Clip Cards
Getting Ready
This time of year can be super busy. But don’t stress, the prep for these clip cards is as simple as can be!
Just print, laminate, and cut the cards apart. Add a few clothespins… and ta-da!! Your hands-on reading center is ready to go!
How to Use these Christmas Clip Cards
I love using clip cards for quick and easy centers. The instructions for these are quite simple.
Students read the word that the elf is saying. Then they use their clothespin to clip onto the matching picture.
This not only lets them practice reading words that begin with digraphs, but it also lets them work on their fine motor skills as they clip.
