• SB / FC There are two phonics flashcards per
letter. Divide them into two piles, one with the
letters -ine and -ike in the order they appear in
the SB, and another with the letters -ine, -ike,
-ape, -ase, -ave, -ane, -ame, -ake, and -ate in
random order.
• Use the flashcards for the letters -ine and -ike
in the order they appear in the SB first. Ask the
students if they remember what sound each
letter set makes. Elicit the correct sound for
each letter set, and ask students to tell you the
word for each picture on the flashcard. Do this
first in order. For example, first show the
flashcard for the word “line”. Ask the students
“What sound do the letters ‘-ine’ make?” Elicit
the appropriate response: /aɪn/. Turn the
flashcard around and show the picture to the
students. Say to the students: “What is it?” Elicit
the response: “It’s a line.” Repeat this for the rest
of the flashcards.

in the SB, and another with the -ive, -ime, -ide,
-ite, -ine, -ike, -ape, -ase, -ave, and -ane in
random order.
• Use the flashcards for the letters -ive and -ime
in the order they appear in the SB first. Ask the
students if they remember what sound each
letter set makes. Elicit the correct sound for
each letter set, and ask students to tell you the
word for each picture on the flashcard. Do this
first in order. For example, first show the
flashcard for the word “dive.” Ask the students
“What sound do the letters ‘-ive’ make?” Elicit
the appropriate response: /aɪv/. Turn the
flashcard around and show the picture to the
students. Say to the students: “What does he
do?” Elicit the response: “He dives.” Repeat this
for the rest of the flashcards.

flashcard for the word “dome.” Ask the students
“What sound do the letters ‘-ome’ make?” Elicit
the appropriate response: /əʊm/. Turn the
flashcard around and show the picture to the
students. Say to the students: “What is it?” Elicit
the response: “It’s a dome.” Repeat this for the
rest of the flashcards.
Home: Ask the students “What is it?” Elicit the
response: “It’s a home.”
Dune: Ask the students “What is it?” Elicit the
