Scholastic's interactive learning activities starring Clifford the Big Red Dog offer phonics fun to early readers.

With Make a Word (created for grades K–2), students create words by dragging missing vowels to them. Once they have created a word, a narrator sounds out the word, helping students practice identifying words with short-vowel sounds and sound spellings.

Learning Objectives

While participating in Make a Word, students will:

Develop phonemic awareness skills
Distinguish easily confused letter pairs
Recognize common short and long vowel sound spellings
Interact with the computer to create new text
