Literacy sound detectives

Following on from yesterdays outdoor literacy experience, we played a new letter game called letter sound detectives.  This is a game where you choose a letter of the alphabet, say the sound and then go around the playground looking for the things that begin with that sound.
"This is letter K"  We found Kitchen after much hunting.  We had letter h and found hammer.
We had letter S.  Lots of things started with S.... Swing, Sandpit, Sun and Summer.
What great letter sound defectives you all were today. 

Literacy is developed when children have opportunities to be involved with the playful use of sounds, words, rhyme, and rhythm of language.  Recognising letters and their sounds gives children confidence to engage in the beginning stages of reading.
