Pick a sentence that features sounds and heart words/ irregular/ tricky words that you have explicitly taught or even make up your own and enter them into the editable template.

Get your students to cut off the strip at the bottom along the dotted lines. Place all the grey parts in the bin. Jumble up the words and place them in order. Stick them into the section with the visual icon 'glue'.

Students will then have a go at writing out the sentence leaving finger spaces and working on forming the letters/ graphemes that have been explicitly taught. They then decode the words and work on blending the sounds that have been introduced. Students then draw a picture to match the sentence- a good opportunity to build up vocabulary that is found in decodable texts to assist with comprehension.
