Phonics
Your weekly phonics focus is a recap of all the split vowel digraphs.
Remember that a digraph is two letters which together make one sound. When a digraph is split by a consonant it becomes a split digraph. For example, the ‘ue’ in cube makes one sound but it is split by the ‘b’.
Can you remember the 5 vowels in our alphabet?
Phonics Challenge 1
Look at the table of pictures. See if you can work out what all of the pictures are, remembering that they all have a split-digraph spelling.
When you think you have worked it out, have a go at spelling the word in your book.
You should end up with 5 lists of spellings.
Phonics Challenge 2
Read the ‘Phoneme spotter’ text. Today it will include a mix of all the split vowel digraphs.
Then have a go at answering the comprehension questions.
You could just talk about the answers with your adult or have a go at writing them down in your book.
