A phonics game to make Silly Nonsense words and to practise blending sounds to read. Roll the dice to get different sounds/blends from the game sheet and write them in the maker card. Draw sound buttons under each sound and blend to read the word. Great to send home for phonics practise and revision in the run up to the Year 1 Phonics Tests.
3 sets of games to play:
Set 1 - 10 different games featuring easier blends. Includes CVC words and some consonant clusters (at beginning or end);
Set 2 - 10 different games featuring a range of digraphs, trigraphs and consonant clusters (letter blends). Includes 3 letter consonant clusters;
Set 3 - 5 different games featuring consonant sounds and clusters with trickier digraphs and trigraphs.
Print and laminate to make game cards and maker cards that can be used again and again. Introduce the activity as a whole class and then play in groups or pairs. A great activity to develop sound knowledge and blending skills in Reception and Year 1. Use to discuss the rules of phonics and exceptions to the rules. Good for identifying when real words are made. Do the children know what they mean? Compile them in a dictionary for later use.
