Word Cards

Page 1



WHAT’S IN YOUR PACK? Your pack contains 78 double-sided cards with key vocabulary for each a-z letter sound (three cards for each letter sound). Cards with a yellow star on the top right corner feature words that are decodable.

WHAT ARE DECODABLE WORDS? These are words a reader can sound out, because he or she has been taught all the phonic facts that occur in those particular words (e.g. ant, cup, drum, hat, sand etc.)

ACTIVITY IDEAS Who likes...? / Who likes this...? Show the picture side of a card (e.g. cake) and ask, ‘Who likes cake?’. Encourage children to respond with the name of the Letterlander who starts the word e.g.‘Clever Cat likes cake’.

Flash Flash a card quickly in front of the children. Ask, ‘Is this a… (e.g. cat)?’ Children respond ‘yes’ or ‘no’. Start off slowly to make sure the children know the words, and make sure you also include some questions where the answer is ‘no!’.

What’s missing? Display some of the cards and ask the children to close their eyes. Then take one card away and ask, ‘What’s missing?’.

Word sort Shuffle the cards, then ask children to sort the pictures in to sets of 3 with the same initial sound, e.g. hand, hat, house.

Alphabetical order Practice putting a selection of the cards in alphabetical order as fast as you can!
