Work along with the video which explores different spelling choices for words that are then put into sentences.

Remember to scroll down to watch all the videos. 

Our new one syllable words build into short stories called ‘A Few New Words’ and ‘Which Duel?’. 

When you feel that you need a break, take a note of the time on the video by clicking the mouse on the red dot, or tapping it on the screen.  You will then know exactly where you can restart.

You may prefer to write just one sentence at a time and take a note of the time on the film.  This will let you know exactly where to go in the film to start the next sentence.

Our words build into 3 short stories called ‘Sue’s Issues’, ‘True Heroes’ and ‘Sue’s Surprise’.  

Listen to each sentence, or part of a sentence, as many times as you need.  Either rewind, or pause the video and ask someone else to say the sentence to you.  It can take a long time to build up a memory of spoken words, so please do not be concerned about needing to listen several times.  When you have finished each sentence, you can also illustrate your story with pictures that suit you. 

The punctuation and the suffixes that are needed for each sentence will be discussed as the sentence is demonstrated. 

Remember that you can use texting or typing as a different way of practising your reading and writing.  You can also include your own ideas in the story.
