Phonics
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 games too at the bottom!
This week, please practise all the different ways we can make an ‘O’ sound (oa, oe, o_e, and ow). As usual please practice the 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:
oa |
oe |
ow |
o_e |
boat float croak cloak |
