Phase 3:Today's sound is ‘ur’

*This is a tricky one as we learn two different ways of making the ur sound in phase three: ‘ur’ and ‘er’.

Remind the children that this ‘ur’ sound is more likely to be in the middle of a word.

Ask them to have a go writing some words e.g. ‘curl’ ‘burn’ ‘surf’

You could have a go at writing a sentence e.g. ‘The cat has fur’ ‘I went to church’
