For example, you might find a picture of a squirrel or a squash. Make a list or draw pictures of the items you find. Share your discoveries with your friends or family!

  2. Squ Word Story: Create a short story using as many “squ” words as you can. You can start with something like, “Once upon a time, a squad of squirrels found a squash…” Draw pictures to go along with your story and share it with the class. How many “squ” words can you include?

  3. Squ Sound Experiment: Try making a “squ” sound with different objects. For example, squeeze a sponge or squish some playdough. What other things can you find that make a “squ” sound? Write down or draw what you discover and explain why you think they make that sound.
