Jolly Phonics - Ink on inky 'Ii'

One of our Jolly Phonics groups worked on the 'Ii' sound.

We wrote some 3 letter words that had the 'i' sound in the middle.

Do you know that the letter 'i' is a vowel.

The other vowels are a, e, o, u and sometimes y.

There is a vowel in every word. 

Kane's rhyming words

Today Kane was busy writing words on a whiteboard. He wrote the word cat. Then he thought of some more words that rhymed with cat. He sounded them out and wrote mat, bat, fat and sat.

Tino pai rawa atu, Kane!

Can you think of any other words that rhyme with cat? 

Or can you think of some new rhyming words?
