A set of yoga /action phonics cards covering RWI set 2 and 3 added e-e, ue, ie, ey and au from phase 5 space themed to match current topic. Use as whole class, small group, 1-1 or perhaps send home. as children know the action and sound they can be put out for continuous provision!

i made this game to send children off to find the sounds in words which matched the RWI phonics phrases.. Hear with your ear... Cup of tea Pie and a tie (actually i might have made that one up! still lit works!) Yawn at dawn chew the stew ew blue glue ue (again we made our own card for this sound!) Hide the aliens around school or outside... off the go to find the alien with the sound they needed.. glue on to the board.

Hot Dog rules 1. Shuffle the cards and place face down next to the dogs bowl 2. Youngest player to start the game 3. Turn over a card, segment and blend the word. If correct the player keeps the card 4. The game moves to the next player 5. If the player turns over the card with the bone and bowl on it all their cards are returned to the big dog bowl. 6. Play continues until all the cards have been used 7. The winner is the player who makes the most complete dogs!

here’s how to play Hot Potato! • Print, laminate and cut out all of the cards. • Bundle them into a deck of cards and shuffle. • Turn the cards face down on the table. Children take it in turns to turn over the top card. • If the child can read it then he/she can keep it. • If a child gets the “Hot Potato” card then he/she must give back all of the cards!! The winner is the person with the most cards at the end of the game. We also have a mat where the returned cards go rather than back into the pile to make the game shorter!

sort the sound family ew ue u-e read and stick!

roll the dice and blend to make a new alien I have included initial sounds and also blends and digraphs tip perhaps not wise to use the f and the ck dice together!

Game A bit of fun with ear… how many silly animals can you make? kids can make up own rules or place the ears (shuffled) in a pile face down and turn over and read… only animal ears work. turn over a human ear and all ears are returned to play or to shorten game out of play. Another way would be to wait until you have a matching pair to put onto you base card.

i have made some tricky / common exception word watches. There are some flash cards and also some sheets with our words to find. One idea is to give children a selection of watch sand ask them t find a friend and mark it off one of the sheets(they are in groups of 5) or a watch a day. i was colour in a star each time they say the word correctly! Over to you! i have uploaded two sets- they are in different orders (i think!) at least 20 watches, 20 flash cards and tick sheets with 5 per sheet one set of flash cards comic sans- other set twinkle font, similar to sassoon

Print out the cards. laminate the caterpillars and the butterflies- cut the butterflies in half. cana the children match the right half to form a word that matches the post it note held by the caterpillar. It could be played like a memory game. The caterpillar cards shared out amongst the players and the butterfly cards face down. of course these can also be used for sand play too!

A set of resources to support maths and phonics session! Money - match the alien to the amounts Weight- which alien is the heaviest Ordering numbers- smallest largest and numbers in-between ordering four numbers smallest to largest addition these are on a4 sheets- i have placed side by side- photocopied and onto a3 then reduced the sheet so they are on one a4 sheet.

print and laminate the cards and provide a basket of pegs. read the word to create a compound word to match the picture. Peg the two words. extension- write onto whiteboards maybe further extension write in a sentence or two!

Some phonic fun. Can you add the sounds to make the word. I will be using as a morning bird activity or phonics table top activity

Rules Each player needs a goal card to store their cards Place the miss card and the penalty card in the middle of the table Place playing football cards face down Take it in turns to turn over a card. If you read the sound correctly place it in your goal. If you don’t place it in the miss pile If you turn over a red card – FOUL! Your opponent gets to take a penalty. Take card from the miss pile and place it onto the penalty spot. If they read it they keep the card (if no cards in miss pile take one from the paying pile.) Keep playing until all the cards have been used Winner is the player with the most! Print as many cards as you wish to play with. The words have two parts so you can play with only one word per sound or print the send sheet and have two.

a mixture of phonic sounds to support decoding skills How to play Each player needs Handa and her basket Place the two huts in the middle of the table.

If they reveal an animal from the story they steal all your cards! Place these stolen cards in the return hut. Play continues until all cards are finished – watch out for alien goat and parrot!
