Block Challenge 4
The First 2-Sound List

Two-Sound List 1

  • Use this list for the ‘What Changed: First or Last’ challenge.
  • You can pick words from this list any time you need 2-sound words.

AROUND THE WORLD IN 20 STEPS

  • This list uses all 'stretchy' sounds (the easiest kind).
  • Each word on the list is one sound different from the one above it.
  • The child figures out which sound changed: First or Last?
  • If you go through the whole list, you will end up where you began. Fun!
