Challenge 7

‘Two Pieces Of Pie’. Revise soft ‘c’ (as in mice) and hard ‘c’ (when ‘c’ is put with other letters) for example, ‘cat’. Practise some tricky homophones that children often get wrong, for example, ‘where’ and ‘were’.

Challenge 8

‘The Fair Has Come To Town’. This pack reinforces complex middle and ending sounds, as in ‘air’, ‘ght’, ‘ea’ and ‘ou’. Zoggy says let’s look at rhyming pairs. Let’s see how different words add the suffix ‘ing’. Remember if a word has a short vowel sound, you have to double the consonant.
