FISHING FOR PHONICS™ ACTIVITIES ACTIVITY 7 - WORD GUESS (continued) ACTIVITY INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Slide the activity selector to the seventh activity. You will hear "Let's go fishing!"followed by a short tune and the instruction "Guess the word." An animation will be shown as a visual clue. The timer will begin as a "Tick Tock"sound effect is heard. 2. To answer the question your child will need to press the letter buttons to fill in the blanks one at a time from left to right. 3. A correct answer will elicit a positive response as well as a reiteration of the correct answer for added reinforcement. 4. An incorrect answer will elicit an encouraging response. Your child will be given another chance as the learning toy repeats the question. After a third incorrect attempt, the unit will reveal the correct answer, and a new question will be asked. How Can You Help? • When your child is playing this activity, remind him or her to use the picture clue to help determine the word. Ask your child to slowly say the word and think about what sounds he or she hears when saying the word. Next, ask your child to locate the letter or letters on the learning toy. • Practice this activity without using the learning toy by having your child guess what letter is missing from a word that you have written down. Use words from Fishing for Phonics™. It may be helpful to provide letter choices. • When reading a book to your child, choose a word and cover up one of the letters in that particular word. Ask your child to tell you what letter is missing. Repeat with additional words. 13 WORD GUESS
