Work along with the video on words that include choices for consonants, and vowel sounds.

Remember to scroll down to view all videos

Writing Words by thinking about the sounds you can hear and where you can hear them.

Use the Reading Words 1 video for some extra practise at reading one syllable words. Please note that this is a longer video and you may prefer to stop after each syllable splitting pattern.

Here are the timings:

1. Stop after 'combat'

2. Restart at 5:57 and stop after 'cotton'

3. Restart at 11:00 and stop after Conan

4. Restart 1t 14;50

Use writing, or typing to practise your words again.  You can also read the words to someone else and ask them to write them.

Choose this 'Building Speed' video to build quick responses to the choices covered.

This video includes all the speech sound to letter links that are in Building Speed1 as well as the additional choices from the section 2 activities.

Listen to the speech sounds and write the letters you need.

Once you have written the first set of letters from watching the film, you can go over these letter-sound links again and again by asking someone else to say the sounds to you. Remember - an automatic response to the sounds frees up brain space for the words you want to write.
