1.3b First Sound Spellings
You are here: Shapes and Sounds Part 2 > Lesson 17 - d > 1.3b First Sound Spellings

This activity uses your ability to listen to the first sound in a word.  You then write the letter you need for that sound, and listen for the next word to write the next letter.  The new words we will be writing are: do, said, add, odd. 

This strategy for the words where we have something extra to remember is also called a mnemonic.  Choose the strategy that suits you best, or use both.
