Making new words<br />
sample<br />
The pupils will determine the creation of new words with this activity.<br />
1. To play, say a word. Then ask how the word would change if a particular sound was added. For<br />
example, ‘Listen to the word flee. What word do we have if we add /t/ at the end?’ (fleet)<br />
2. Continue in this manner with the words listed below. Allow the pupils to create some of their own<br />
phonemic additions.<br />
• pin /ch/ • clam /p/ • /a/ cross<br />
• wind /y/ • gas /p/ • /s/ car<br />
• plan /t/ • fir /st/ • /t/ rip<br />
Presto change-o!<br />
