ue grapheme (U-Hoo)
1. Download the PowerPoint. Use this to introduce the ue grapheme that makes the long U sound. Read the ue words as they are rescued from the sea.
2. Watch the ‘That’s Not the Issue’ video. Ask the children to make the U-Hoo (pointing) action every time they hear a ue word.
3. Download the activity. Cut out the ue words from the activity sheet and paste the ue words onto paper. Can children think of a silly sentence to remember the ue words? For example, ‘They like to argue about the value of a tissue’.
