Tricky words are words that cannot be sounded out easily. They are common words that have a difficult spelling.

Have a go at singing the tricky words song. How many tricky words can you spot? Can you say them?

was

You should have something that looks like this:

SPLAT! 

How to play

Choose 5 or 6 tricky words that you would like to practise. 

Write these down on paper and place them face down. 

One card has the word, SPLAT! 

Turn each card over so the cards are facing down and mix the cards around.

Turn over a card and read the tricky word! 

Keep going until you have read all of the tricky words!

IF you turn over the card that says "SPLAT!" you have to turn all of the cards over, mix them up and start again!

How quickly can you do it?

Keep practising :)
