Shr Sound Hunt: Go on a “shr” sound hunt around your home or classroom! Look for objects or pictures that have the “shr” sound in their names. For example, you might find a shirt or a picture of a shrimp. Draw or take a picture of each item you find and share them with your friends or family. How many “shr” sounds can you discover?
Create a Shr Sound Story: Use your imagination to create a short story using as many “shr” words as you can. You can start with something like, “Once upon a time, a shrew found a magical shrine…” Draw pictures to go along with your story and share it with your class. How many “shr” words did you include?
Shr Sound Experiment: Try a fun experiment with shrinking! Find a small piece of clothing or a sponge. Wet it and then let it dry in the sun. Observe what happens. Does it shrink? Talk about how this relates to the word shrink and why things might get smaller when they dry. Can you think of other things that shrink?
