This week in phonics, we have been learning the ‘ll’ sound.

Sound focus:

  • ll – as in bell, hill, doll

At home, please can you:

  • Say the ‘ll’ sound clearly

  • Look for objects or words around the house that contain ll and say them out loud

  • Practise reading and saying these words: bell, hill, doll, ball, well, fill

  • Have a go at writing the ‘ll’ letters, remembering correct letter formation

More activities:

  • Play I Spy using words that contain the ‘ll’ sound

  • Draw a picture of something with ll in the word and label it (for example: ball or bell)

  • Read a short book and try to spot words that contain ll.

 

Challenge:
Have a go at writing some sentences using words with the ‘ll’ sound.

For example:

  • The bell will ring.

  • I can see a red ball.

  • The doll is on the bed.

  • We walk up the hill.

Try to write your own sentences using ll words such as ball, bell, hill, doll, well, fill. Remember to use capital letters, finger spaces, and a full stop.
