Odd word for spelling:
by my Dictation (Revise ‘ch’ family):
Frank and Jack must get lunch. Jack gets fish and chips from the chip shop. Frank gets chicken and chips. They sit on a bench to munch the good food. A gull on a roof looks at them. They get back in the truck but have a shock. The truck is stuck and will not go. “Can we get the bus?” said (asks) Jack. Teaching Tips: · Talk about think: ‘think’ with ‘s’ on the end, not thinx. · Many children have difficulty saying 'th' and this is a wonderful time to make sure your pupil is saying it properly. Persevere until s/he does, gently correcting if s/he pronounces it incorrectly, even after this lesson has passed. I used to remind my children by saying 'Tongue between the teeth!' · Talk about questions needing a question mark. Write some questions on paper/board for the pupil to read. Show how to put a question mark instead of the full stop. · In speech, we put the question mark in place of the comma, before closing speech and adding 'said Jack': ‘Please can I have chips?” asks Jack. |
