Look out for "Magic E!"

We've been working on silent e for over a month now.  Students are seeming to get it and apply it (for the most part) during writing workshop.  For a fun, new way to review, I made (ok, I asked a substitute amazing substitute) to make it for me.  *Sidebar: She enjoys the laminator as much as I do.  You can use the wand all sorts of ways...introducing "Magic E," having it "pop up" and change cVc words into cVcE words, etc...etc...etc...If you'd like a supplement for your magic e lessons, check out my long vowel pack, shown below! 81 pages of long vowel and vowel teams!!

Thanks for sharing-this is great! I have some who are still struggling to decide if the vowel is short or long. This may be just what they need.

I loved this idea. I made one this week, but used a really sparkly E cut out. I call it "Sparkly Silent E." He shows up at the end of words and the vowel is SO amazed by him, that they want to introduce themselves, so they say their name. I make a big deal about it and the kids LOVE it. They laugh everytime. THANKS for the idea!

What a great idea! I'm trying to think of other ways to implement this in my classroom. I think I could come up with a whole slew of magic wands. Such a simple thing, but with so much potential.
