On a piece of paper, draw three large circles. Cut consonants from the newspaper and put them in the first and third circles. Put vowels in the center circle. Make words using letters from each circle. Divide the words by syllables.
Some letters have more then one sound.
Look at the ads in the front section of the newspaper for the words with the same letters but not the same sound. Circle various vowel sounds, consonant sounds, blends, prefixes, or suffixes. Clip pictures from ads or comics that begin with the same letter or sound. Use them as flashcards. Study an advertisement or photograph closely for 30 seconds.
