Tricky Words Puppet Show

Read words that do not follow the usual spelling rules.

Tricky words

Say each word in your head before you answer.

Many words are spelled the way they sound, like jump and plant. Some words are tricky. Their spelling does not match how we say them, so we have to learn to read them by sight. Said, friend, and laugh are tricky words.

Sort each word. Is it spelled the way it sounds, or is it a tricky word?
