Week 3

We suggest that you do phonics every day for 20 minutes. The children need to spend time reading real and nonsense words. We have added a selection of fun phonics games that can be adapted for different words and a selection of ICT games too at the bottom!

Mrs Watson’s phonics group

This week, please practise the alternative spellings for igh and phase 5 tricky words (please see the Year 1 homework page on the website for a list of tricky words).

Can you practise reading and writing the following words. We have already learnt igh and ie but i-e is a new way to write the ai sound. It is called a split diagraph because a letter goes in the middle!

igh	ie	i-e
night bright fright tonight	pie lied cried tried	smile kite prize five

 

 

 

 

Challenge: Can you write a sentence including these words?

 

Can you practise reading the following nonsense words:

igh	ie	i-e
