This year, I have the privilege of working with an international student whose first language is not English. He is 8 years old. He has been working very hard on using phonics to read. Recently he has moved on to digraphs (2 vowel letters together). From our list of words with 'ai' and 'oa' sounds, he spun a wheel to pick 2 words. I used the 2 words to form a sentence. Then he read and drew a sketch for the sentence. Through this activity, he practised reading words with digraphs and was able to translate the text into a pictorial form, which showed reading comprehension.
There are various ways to use this activity with our learners, whether they are homeschooling or in a full school. Teacher Libing runs phonics workshops for parents and caregivers, as well as English Language lessons for children, teens and adult learners. Math and Science (primary) lessons are by Teacher Augustine.

This activity never fails to surprise me each time I've done it with my phonics students. I interview my students using questions that contain our lesson keywords. The answers are kept simple - yes or no. Sometimes the students don't know or are not sure, so we just put a question mark. It is an easy activity to review the phonics sounds we have learned and build some fluency in reading questions.
