We started by reading the book Silent Letters Loud and Clear by Robin Pulver.
It is a really cute book where the students don't understand why they have to use the silent letters when they don't hear them. So they wrote a letter to the editor of the newspaper stating their case. Well, the silent letters disappear and the letter makes absolutely no sense. Moral to the story: We NEED those sneaky silent letters!
To practice recognizing some of our words that have silent letters, I created a Sneaky Silent Letter Sort.
