Watch and listen to the story in the video below. 

How many long /a/ words can you hear and see that are spelt /a-e/? 

Can you make a list of them?

Can you use some in sentences of your own?  or can you make up your own short story using them?

Complete the /ai/alternative sound sheet 2, just as you did for sheet 1 yesterday.

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.
