How do you teach CK sound?

Just as a reminder, the spelling rule for the final /k/ sounds is as follows: When the /k/ sound is at the end of a word it can be spelled with either the letter “k” or the letters “ck”. When the final /k/ sound is preceded by a vowel team or a diphthong (e.g. ou) it is spelled with a “k”.

How do you teach C and K sounds?

Ask again if they notice anything about the words. Explain that if a word’s first vowel is an A, O or U, then the word usually begins with C. Then tell them that if a word’s first vowel is an E or I, the word generally begins with K. Review vowel sounds with the students.

How do you introduce CK sound?

This generalization states that when you hear the /k/ sound at the end of a word AND the /k/ immediately follows a short vowel sound, it is spelled ck. If it is preceded by a long vowel or consonant, it is spelled with a k.

What are the 42 letter sounds in Jolly Phonics?

Learning the letter sounds: Children are taught 42 letter sounds, which is a mix of alphabet sounds (1 sound – 1 letter) and digraphs (1 sound – 2 letters) such as sh, th, ai and ue. Using a multi-sensory approach each letter sound is introduced with fun actions, stories and songs.
