Phonics focus of the day - 13th July, 2020 -

Today we are going to look at words with the protector 'dge' but remember this sound can also look like this 'ge' without the 'd'.

  • Can you spot this digraph/trigraph?
  • Can you underline this sound in words?

 

If a grown up writes these words can you read them? - badge, badger, bridge, fridge, ridge, dodge, lodge, edge, hedge, sledge, ledge, wedge, pledge, fudge, judge, page, gorge, large, fringe, hinge, barge, charge.

 

Can you read these sentences?

  • A huge bridge spans the gorge.
  • Don't smudge the edge of the page.
  • A large badger is under the hedge.
  • I hate the wedge of sticky fudge.

Today we are going to look at 'rabbit' and 'tiger' words - These are words where we have to double a consonant because it has a 'weak vowel' sound in it. I like to call them rabbit words because it looks like the ears on a rabbit! hopping - can you see the weak vowel sound? So we double the consonant! little. 'Tiger' words are when you see the double 'rr' in words (grr the tiger growels). Again you double the 'r' when it has a weak vowel sound - marry, terror

  • Can you spot the rabbit sounds?
  • Can you spot the tiger sounds?
  • Can you underline this sound in words?

 

If a grown up writes these words can you read them? - matter, matted, splatter, splattering, hopping, stripped, ripped, ridden, written, mopping, sloppy, cutting, cutter, supper, hurry, Harry, carry, carrying, hurring, carrot, parrot, narrow, marrow, sparrow, ferry, merry, horrid

If a grown up writes these words can you read them? - apple, ankle, people, sprinkle, twinkle, temple, tremble, little, battle, rustle, bristle, castle, whistle, thistle.
