For grown-ups
Companion summary
Can you hear a sneaky hissing sound in "sun," "sock," and "sandwich"? That sound helps you read and write hundreds of words you use every day. A snake says ssss — and so does the start of "smell," "smile," and "slide." When you finish, try spotting that sound in your favourite storybook!
Wake Up!
Wake Up!
Make a snake noise. Say 'sss' slowly. That is the sound 's' makes!
