Go Out In The Car' Learn To Spell Words With 'ar' (7-11 years) - Activity Pack

The "Go Out In The Car" Activity Pack, crafted for children aged 7 to 11, is an engaging educational resource designed by Sally Jones and Amanda Jones to help young learners master the spelling of words containing the 'ar' sound. Through the adventures of a character named Zoggy, children are taken on a phonics journey where they are encouraged to associate the 'ar' sound with various words and scenarios. The pack includes a variety of activities that involve meeting characters like Farmer Mark and seeing sights such as a horse pulling a cart, a harvester in action, and even a large dog barking, all of which incorporate the 'ar' sound in a memorable and enjoyable context.

Further enhancing the learning experience, the activity pack contains a list of 'ar' words for children to read and remember, ranging from simple words like 'car' and 'bar' to more complex ones such as 'department' and 'parliament'. The learning method employed is the 'Read, Copy, Cover & Spell' technique, which prompts children to first read the word, write it down, cover it, and then attempt to spell it from memory. This approach is repeated with an extended list of 'ar' words, culminating in a test to assess retention and understanding. The pack is not only educational but also includes a fun narrative element, with Zoggy being the star of a fireworks party, adding an element of excitement to the spelling exercises.
