Thanksgiving Crack the Code | 27 Editable Picture-Code Word Cards
Turn a word or name into a picture puzzle. Children match each picture to a letter on the alphabet key, write or place the letter below it, and read the decoded word. Use the starter cards or edit the picture fields to make your own set.
This 16-page US Letter PDF includes 27 cut-apart cards, with three cards for each word length from two to ten letters. It also includes a 26-picture alphabet key, a recording sheet, a starter answer key, a printable set of picture tiles, a storage label, an I Can card, and setup directions.
Download the file and open it in a desktop PDF reader that supports fillable forms and embedded fonts. Select a picture field, type one A–Z letter, and press Tab. Save a copy and check that your updated pictures appear before printing. The included paper tiles give you another way to build codes. Print at actual size and set out pencils, letter tiles, or dry-erase markers for laminated cards.
Use this activity for preschool, kindergarten, or first-grade word work, small groups, and name practice.
