None Dictation (Revise ‘i-e’ family):
Frank arrived back with a tube of glue and two long planks of wood. “Here you are,” he said. “This will fix it for you.” He started to fix the porch. Jack wanted to help but dropped the wood on his toe. Frank ran to the rescue. Jack looked at his toe. It had gone blue. Tom went to get him some ice. This is not nice,” said Jack. He limped to see the horse. Teaching Tips:
· Break each of these words into two parts. ath lete - athlete comp ete - compete com plete - complete · Follow the same instructions as per a-e for adding ing/ed. · Revise doubling to keep the vowel saying its sound, if necessary. · Watch how your child tackles the word limped. Watch for the ability to sound out limp (the root word) and then to add ‘ed’. The most common error is to write limpt. If this is your child’s error, then talk about it with him/her. Revise ‘ed’ endings. |
