We have got lots of fun planned this week with the sound โyโ for yellow! ๐โ
โ
What can your child find BEGINNING with the โyโ sound? ๐ณ๐ฅ๐ช
โ
The letter โyโ can be confusing, especially when itโs at the end of the word- particularly in some of your names as it then makes an โeeโ sound.
โ
For now, please focus on finding the โyโ sound rather than the letter name โwhyโ!
Excited to be back after half term and looking forward to seeing you all for lots more fun, play and learning ๐ฆ

๐ถ๐๐ฆ Whatโs in the bin? ๐ฆ๐๐ถ
This weeks sound of the week isโฆ x
This sound is pronounced by saying a /ck/ and a /s/ sound together โcksโ
It can be tricky to find objects beginning with the โxโ sound as it often makes a โzโ sound when at the start of a word E.g. xylophone. So you may want to try and find an object with the โxโ sound at the end.
