Over the next 2 days we will be learning the alternative spelling patterns for /ai/ sound.

e.g. /ai/ as in wait;   /-ay/ as in away;     /eigh/as in eight;  /-ey/ as in they

Watch the video below with Mr Thorne.

Complete the /ai/sound alternative sheet which is different to the type you have been using.

Ask an adult to read the instructions to you (see below and the sheet).

1) underline all the different spellings for /ai/ sound in the word list.

Practise reading all the words in the lists (sound out and blend) to yourself first. Then read them to an adult - tick the ones you read correctly.

2) Underline all the different spellings for /ai/ sound in the passage (text) . Then read the text. 

3) In the last box, write a sentence using a word/words from the lists and draw a picture to go with it (illustrate it). 

Challenge: 

Choose a word from each list and write a sentence for each one.

Remember to use joined/best handwriting, a capital letter at the beginning of your sentence, word spaces and a full stop at the end of your sentence.
