Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: Encourage children to use the class list of sounds as a prompt for ideas. Group the children in mixed ability groupings so that these children can be supported by more confident peers.
Pupils working at greater depth: Appoint these children as the leaders for each group. During the key questioning, target these pupils to find out why they combined certain sounds and what alternatives could be used.
