  • Name as many things that begins with.... (use the diphthong you are teaching or reviewing)

  • Say a word that rhymes with....

  • Go on a .....sound hunt .

  • Can you name an animal that begins/ ends with .....?

  • Can you draw a fruit that begins / ends with ....?

  • Play  "I spy a word that begins with..."

  • Make riddles using the blend you want to introduce or practise.
