1. On a table provide the children with a copy of page 181 from the Activities Manual or print off page IWB252 from the IWB programme and a pencil.
2. Talk to the children about the sound o. Ask them to tell you things that begin with the sound.

4. The children can then complete the worksheet independently.
More to Learn:
1. You can extend this activity to the other Georgia the Shetland Pony letters. Support the activity using the illustrated Georgia the Shetland Pony letter cards so children can look within the classroom to find objects that begin with the same sound.
