Ever had to try and think of a /ae/ word and can’t think of one on the spot? Well, this set of /ae/ word lists was designed to make your teaching life easier.

This resource includes /ae/ word lists (ay, ai, a_e & ea). A great tip is to reduce the size when printing and put on a ring. That way, they are easily accessible for you to use when running your phonics lessons.

Use these words in whole class, small groups or for 1:1 intervention. They can be used when oral blending and segmenting, spelling /ae/ words on mini whiteboards or putting words into a sentence.
