Robot-Talk Time
Can you robot-talk each picture below?

Kit and Sam were excited because it was Mum and Dad's wedding anniversary! They woke up early to make them a special card.

Mum joined Kit and Sam downstairs. “Happy anniversary!” cheered Kit and Sam. “Anniversary?” questioned Mum, looking confused.

Dad followed Mum into the kitchen. “Happy anniversary, darling,” said Mum nervously and she went to give Dad a kiss.
“Yuck!” said Kit. “Do you have to kiss in the kitchen?”
“Kiss has a long ‘ss’ sound at the end,” said Sam pretending to kiss, “ss, ss, ss.”

At the end of some words, the ‘s’ sound is written as…
As with –ff and -ll, this is in words
where the preceding vowel sound is ‘short’.

Dad got Mum a kiss.

Mum looked at the calendar. “Kit, what is the date?” Kit shrugged.
Mum laughed, “Our anniversary is next week, not today.”
“Phew!” said Dad. “I thought I had missed it.”
“Can we have our card back?” laughed Sam.

Ask the children to find today’s sound on their sound mat.
