Hey there! Today, we’re going to have fun learning about some special sounds that letters make when they come together. Are you ready? Let’s go!
When the letter “s” and the letter “c” come together, they make the sound “sc.” Let’s try reading some words with “sc” at the start:
Now, let’s see what happens when “s” and “k” come together. They make the sound “sk.” Here are some words to try:
When “s” and “l” come together, they make the sound “sl.” Let’s read these words:
Next, we have “s” and “m” making the sound “sm.” Try these words:
When “s” and “n” come together, they make the sound “sn.” Let’s read these words:
Now, let’s see what “s” and “p” sound like together. They make the sound “sp.” Try these words:
When “s” and “t” come together, they make the sound “st.” Let’s read these words:
Finally, let’s see what “s” and “w” sound like together. They make the sound “sw.” Try these words:
Great job learning all these sounds! Keep practicing, and you’ll be a reading superstar in no time!
Sound Hunt: Go on a sound hunt around your home or classroom! Look for objects or pictures that start with the “sc,” “sk,” “sl,” “sm,” “sn,” “sp,” “st,” or “sw” sounds. Can you find something for each sound? Draw a picture of each item you find and try to write the word underneath. Share your findings with a friend or family member!
Sound Sorting Game: Create a set of cards with words from the lesson, each card having one word. Mix them up and sort them into groups based on their starting sounds. For example, put all the “sc” words in one pile and all the “sk” words in another. Once sorted, try reading the words out loud. Can you think of more words that could fit into each group?
Sound Storytime: Make up a short story using as many “s” sound words as you can. For example, “Scott the skeleton went skating on a slippery slope.” Draw pictures to go along with your story. Share your story with the class or your family and see if they can spot all the special sounds!
