Week 8 Phonics

Miss Monaghan’s group

This week we are learning about the ai sound. Watch the video below, it will help you practice reading lots of ‘ai’ words.

Have a go at the activity below. Can you read the story and write down all the ‘ai’ words that you spot?

Miss Stylianidou’s group

 

This week we are learning about the ‘z’ and ‘zz’ sound. Watch the alphablocks video below, it will help you practice reading lots of ‘z’ and ‘zz’ words, can you write down all the ones you see?

A ‘z’ on its own is normally found that start of a word such as ‘zip’ but if the sound is at the end or in the middle of the word we normally use ‘zz’ instead such as ‘fizz’ or ‘fuzzy’. Can you spot all the tiny ‘zz’ words in the picture? Have a go at writing a sentence with some of them in.

Mrs Baird’s group

 

This week your new sound is /oy/. This grapheme looks different, but it sounds just like the /oi/ sound you learnt earlier in the year. Watch the video below to practise using the /oy/ sound in words.

Now have a look at the activity below. Troy and Moira have been sending messages to each other. Can you make a list of oy words for Troy, and oi words for Moira?

Also have a go at writing labels to match the picture below.

Miss Thomas' group

Now have a go at the activity below. Can you choose the correct spelling to go in the gap?
