Weird Wonderful Will
Speaking and listening skills are essential for progress through school and into the wider world.
Help further develop your child's phonics and language skills by playing this Perform alliteration game.
First explain that alliteration is all about grouping together words which all begin with the same sound - like weird, wonderful & Will all begin with a ‘w' sound.
Then give an example which isn't alliterative e.g. jumping, gorgeous Jeremy - as jumping and Jeremy begin with a ‘j' sound, but gorgeous begins with a ‘g' sound.
Take it in turns to play and discuss the examples which your child comes up with - don't worry if they get it wrong - simply offer up suggestions. You could also come up with some yourself, and ask your child to judge whether they are correct or not.
