Learn Tricky Words With Long Sounds & Middle Phonic Sounds ‘ar’, ‘oo’, ‘ai’ - Activity Pack (2)

Engage children aged 7 to 11 in mastering tricky words with an activity pack focused on long vowel sounds and middle phonic sounds such as 'ar', 'oo', and 'ai'. This interactive learning experience is set in the context of an imaginative scenario featuring Zoggy, who faces his fourth challenge on a rainy afternoon. As Zoggy gazes out at the rain from his spacecraft, students are tasked with identifying words that share the same phonetic sounds from a selection of phrases provided in the activity.

The activity encourages children to pick out words that contain the sounds 'OO', 'IR', 'AR', 'UR', 'OR', 'ER', 'AY', and 'AI' from various sentences that describe Zoggy's rainy afternoon experiences. Examples include the feelings of being cold, the weather being stormy, and the desire to have fun despite the gloom. Students are then asked to sort a list of words into the correct boxes based on their sounds, with additional exercises like 'Cover & Write' for each sound group to reinforce spelling and recognition. These activities not only help to expand vocabulary but also enhance the ability to identify and spell words with specific phonetic sounds, making it an entertaining and educational challenge for young learners.
