Jolly Phonic Sound

 

The Jolly Phonic Sound for this week is the Jj. Some of the words we will be working on stretching out the sounds for are: jab, jag, jam, jar, jet, jig, jog, jot, job, just and junk. One of the new activities I do in order to assist the children to remember the letter and sound we are working on for the week is I write each day I write two sentences that have words with the sound in them and volunteers come and put a red circle around the sound.

 

For example this past week the sound was "b". So one of my sentences was: There was a beaver taking a big bubble bath while reading a brand new book. Look at all the "b" words and the students seem to love this activity and can't wait for a turn. The hard part is thinking of two different and silly sentences each day for five days.

 

The word family for this week is "ap" and some words we will be working on are: cap, gap, lap, map, nap, rap, tap.

 

 

The By Heart Word for this week is the word "for"
