This pack introduces children to words containing soft g, such as ginger, danger, tragic and gym. Children need to learn that g 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. This pack also teaches how to add the ending -ing to words with a short vowel sound, such as win - winning, and words with magic e, such as hide - hiding.
Children will read the short story Sam and Kim’s Week, about what happened during Sam and Kim's week at school. It includes lots of words containing soft g and the ending -ing, 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.
This pack is useful for children who are learning to read words with these sounds and letter patterns, 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.
