How the Activity Works

Students complete different activities focusing on silent letter combinations like ‘gn’, ‘kn', and ‘wr’. They fill in the missing letters to complete each word, colour the silent letter combinations, and unscramble jumbled words to write them correctly. Additionally, students draw pictures to match some of the words and circle any misspelled words, rewriting them correctly on the lines.
