Hi everyone I hope you are all enjoying the fun posts that we have been putting up for you.<\/p>\n

Today we are going to focus on identifying and understanding the initial sounds of words.<\/p>\n

Below are a few fun ideas to try.<\/p>\n

The first challenge is to go on a scavenger hunt to find a variety of different objects and items.<\/p>\n

Next, encourage your child to name the object and attempt to identify the initial sound e.g a doll starts with a \u201cd\u201d. To challenge your child you can ask them to think of another word starting with the sound and draw a picture starting with the same sound e.g draw a dog.<\/p>\n
