How to use it

3. Find the real things on the table and match them to the words.
4. Use one word in a thank-you sentence.

Watch out for

• Grain, leaf and roast each use a different vowel team (ai, ea, oa) — a good review if all three have been taught.
• Turkey and pumpkin have two syllables; clap them first, then read each part.
• Children on CVC words should do only the first page — nut, pan, cob and yam are all decodable.
