For those children now confident recognising and saying their initial letter sounds and beginning to be confident in digraphs and maybe even some trigraphs, let’s play WORD BUILDER GAME!
A simple 3 sound word that is very easy for young children to decode, read and then write is called a CVC word.
As with the simple CVC words, ask them to clearly sound out the word on the card first, then find each sound and create it in the right order in the stand.
If you want a real challenge, remove the cards altogether and simply call out words for them to hear, say back to you and create,
Once the games are over, store the balls in a box (alongside the fruit boxes if enough space) and pull it out another day to practice again and reinforce the learning.
