we're going to look at the sounds that are made with two letters

hello my name is Tom

I'm an English teacher

with a degree from Cambridge University

for our phonics lesson today

we're going to look at the sounds that are made with two letters

it might be a good idea to pause the video

and practice before moving on to the next one

so

are you ready

please listen carefully

and follow me

let's start with

now it's your turn

ai in snail

ai as in rain

ai as in tail

your turn

oa as in boat

oa as in toad

oa as in coat

I follow me

ie as in tie

i as in pi

i as in lie

now it's your turn

ee as in bee

ee as in knee

e as in feet

now it's your turn

or as in fork

or as in corn

or as in storm

follow me

ng as in ring

ng as in sing

ng as in long

Oh your tent

oo as in book

oo as in look

oo as in cook

this has the same letters

but the sound is different

your turn

oo as in moon ooh

oo as in spoon

oo as in balloon

your turn

che for chest

che for cheek

che for cheese

your turn

sh for shell

sh for shop

sh for sheep

how are you doing?

so there are quite a few sounds

but once you've learned these

I think you'll find there are lots of books

that you'll be able to read by yourself

so let's keep going

so this one if you put your finger gently on your throat

you'll feel it move a little bit

can you make the sound?

feather

mother

father

this has the same letters

but the sound is different

this time your throat doesn't move

can you do it?

good

moth

thumb

bath

your turn

qu for Queen

qu for quick

qu for quack

your turn

ou as in cloud

ou as in loud

as in mouth

your turn

oi for oil

oi as in coin

oi as in point

your turn

ue as in rescue

ue as in statue

ue as in argue

with nearly end

this one is

your turn

er as in fern

er as in her

er as in person

and this is the last sound

follow me

ar as in car

ar as in star

ar in farm

well done!

thank you very much for watching

I hope you've enjoyed this video

please watch it as many times as you'd like

until you've learned all of these sounds

if you would like to practice the basics of phonics

there is another video that we've made that teaches those

and if you've enjoyed this one
