Phonics /OO/ /oo/

Hi everyone!


Lately, we've been working on the /oo/ sound. We've learnt that it can be pronounced as: 


- /ʊ/ (a short u): Book, foot, cook, wood... 

- /uː/ (a long u): Spoon, food, moon, broom... 




Those two sounds resemble the singing of a cuckoo, that's why we made our own CUCKOO CLOCKS!

It's AUTUMN!


 

All the leaves are falling down,

ORANGE, YELLOW, RED and BROWN.

Falling softly as they do,

over me and over you!
