Song:

How do you sound it out?

How do you sound it out?

Say all the sounds

And then you drag ’em out

/r/ /u/ /n/

/rrrrrrrrr/ /uuuuuuu/ /nnnnnn/

Run! Run! Run, run, run!

How do you sound it out?

Say all the sounds

And then you drag ’em out

/j/ /u/ /m/ /p/

/jjjjj/ /uuuuu/ /mmmmm/ /ppppp/

Jump! Jump! Jump, jump, jump!

To recognise the last sound of the different words, we can work like this with children:

Sillable game

First of all, children may read all the words, together or one by one, then try to guess and make different groups of sillables: they will have to separate the words and put each one in the correct group:

Fun with rhymes

Let's see another activity to work rhyme with children, they have to complete the sentences with the words at the top:

Compound words

Let’s see if you still remember them singing all together, are you ready?

Please from number one to number five on the list, can you come to help me? (Each children will have two number cards to show when we say the number they have)

Meanwhile the rest of the class and the teacher will sing doing some gestures like these ones:
