This pack introduces children to words containing soft c, such as dance, cinema and bicycle. Children need to learn that c is pronounced softly when it is followed by e, i or y. Learning this pattern helps children recognise and read unfamiliar words more accurately, without having to guess which sound to use.
Children will read the short story Sam’s Half Term, about what happened during Sam and Kim's week off school. It includes lots of words containing soft c, giving children plenty of opportunity to practise reading these words in context. Read the story several times to help your child become familiar with these words and how they are pronounced. Afterwards, children are asked to make a list of all the words containing soft c in the story.
This pack is useful for children who are learning to read words with this sound, as well as children who need extra practice. Repeated reading will help children become more confident at recognising the letter patterns and reading the words more easily and fluently.
The story is taken from the sixth book in our Learn To Read With Phonics reading scheme. We have split the book into separate resources for those looking for extra help in a particular area. To purchase the complete book, click here.
