Reading activity for 'ur'
Magic words!
Make a chalk track or target on the street, in your garden or on the wall. If you don't have any chalk, use little cards with ur words written on. Your child has to blend the word and then they can rub the word out with water- either with a water gun or a squirty bottle - an old pop bottle or a squirty gun. The children will not even realise that they are doing phonics as they squirt the word out like magic!
Another good messy idea for this is to write a word in shaving cream, the child blends it and rubs it out, then write another !
