Phonics Mrs Mitchell’s group: Focus: Vowel digraph ‘au’ and ‘aw’ When the ‘aw’ precedes an ‘n’ or ‘l’ it is usually spelled ‘aw’. ‘author, autumn, August, astronaut, lawn, saw, prawn, crawl’ Miss O’Sullivan, Mrs O’Connell and Mrs Ebenezer groups: ‘or’ sound spent as ‘ar’ after a ‘w’ sound. For example, ‘award, towards, wart, war, warm, reward, swarm’ Common misconception is the children spell the word with an ‘or’ for example, ‘worm’ instead or ‘warm’. Research some more words with these spelling rules!
