Silent Letter
Game
Here's a game to
play with a friend.
Read the story
aloud to your
friend. Tell them
that every time
they hear a word
with a silent letter,
they should stand
up. If they miss
the word or stand
up at the wrong
time, you must tell
them to sit down.

Standards Link: Reading
Foundations: Recognize
and read grade-appropriate
irregularly spelled words.
Nicolas the (G)NOME woke up at the bottom of a hedge. His S(W)ORD was
missing, his THUM(B) was hurting, and his (K)NEES were dirty. With a
SI(G)H he remembered what had happened.
Last NI(G)HT in the CAS(T)LE he had sneaked some CRUM(B)S from the
(K)NIGHTS table. By accident, he (K)NOCKED over a cup. He CLIM(B)ED
on to the floor and (K)NELT to quietly pick it up but it was too late.
The (K)NAVE who W(H)ISTLED loudly had spotted him. With a flick of his
(W)RIST he scooped Nicolas up and hurled him out of the window.
Luckily for Nicolas, he landed on the back of a LAM(B). CLIM(B)ING
down, he slipped, rolled down the hill and into the hedge.
