__**Silent E Index Cards**__
Teacher can have pre-made index cards to give to the students. On the front side can be a picture of a word that ends in silent e. On the back is the actually word. Parents can go over the words with students at home.

type of learner: visual individual or partner activity materials needed: pre-made index cards

__**Tub, Cub**__
Write down different one-syllable words that have short vowels. The parent/guardian at home can pronounce the words together with the student. Then have the student write down the words with a silent e at the end and read them aloud again. An alternative to this is to use magnetic letters instead of writing down the words.

type of learner: visual individual activity materials needed: magnetic letters (if desired)
