About this activity

A projector prize-wheel show: teams spin a 3D wheel, call letters and solve hidden phrases, using where a sound sits in a word (ai/ay, ck/k, tch/dge, oi/oy) to choose letters.

What students learn

  • Use position-based spelling tendencies (ai inside, ay at the end; oi inside, oy at the end) to choose letters and read words
  • Spell /k/ as ck right after a short vowel in a one-syllable word, and as k after a consonant or long vowel
  • Spell /ch/ as tch and /j/ as dge right after a short vowel, and as ch and ge after a consonant or long vowel
  • Read half-lit phrases by predicting the letters a spelling pattern needs
