The Ice Cream CCVC Puzzle activity is an excellent way for students to construct CCVC words, enhancing their phonemic segmentation and blending skills with single-syllable words. It's a perfect addition to literacy rotations.
Use short vowels, common long vowels, consonant blends and digraphs to write words, and blend these to read one- and two-syllable words
Spell one- and two-syllable words with common letter patterns
Segment words into separate phonemes (sounds) including consonant blends or clusters at the beginnings and ends of words (phonological awareness)
Orally manipulate phonemes in spoken words by addition, deletion and substitution of initial, medial and final phonemes to generate new words (phonological awareness)
Understand that a letter can represent more than one sound and that a syllable must contain a vowel sound
Use short vowels, common long vowels, consonant digraphs and consonant blends when writing, and blend these to read single syllable words
Understand how to spell one and two syllable words with common letter patterns
Segment consonant blends or clusters into separate phonemes at the beginnings and ends of one syllable words
Draws on an increasing range of skills and strategies to fluently read, view and comprehend a range of texts on less familiar topics in different media and technologies
Uses a variety of strategies, including knowledge of sight words and letter–sound correspondences, to spell familiar words
Uses initial and extended phonics, including vowel digraphs, trigraphs to decode and encode words when reading and creating texts
Applies phonological, orthographic and morphological generalisations and strategies when spelling words in a range of writing contexts
