- Can you find things around the house or in a newspaper or magazine that have the sounds listed above. Cut them out stick them to paper or into your homework jotter and have a go at spelling these words.
- Read a story together, can you change the ending to the story? You could draw and scribe or write this together and bring it in to school to share with your peers.
- Common words – use household materials to make and practise spelling your common words. You could use pasta, shaving foam, play-doh, flour or just good old pens and paper. Another fun idea, is mixing water with food colouring and putting it into a sports cap bottle and using the liquid to spell the words in the snow.
- Write a story together with a beginning, middle and end, it could be about the snow or an adventure you and your favourite toy got up to. Have a go at using your common words in your tin and your sound knowledge to write this independently.
