Some children have difficulty to spell because they don’t hear the sound of letters in a word. This activity is meant for them. This activity also helps a struggling reader to learn spelling. Another benefit of this activity is that it improves the listening skills.
How is this activity organised?
A word is displayed. A new word, formed by removing a letter from the word displayed, is dictated. The challenge is to make the new word by removing a letter.
Examples: SHIP – SIP, MANLY – MANY
