We have played this game using different sounds before so hopefully you will remember what to do. When you have finished can you please practise reading and spelling the tricky words which you also have already in your remote learning packs at home. If you would like a challenge pick 5 of your spellings and practise using them in a sentence. Can you write a sentence which needs an exclamation mark? Or can you use them in a question?
