Robyn,
I’m curious about
2. Literacy: Explore heart words and CVCC or CCVC words around the theme of space – word to picture matching, sentence building, decodable readers around the theme, spelling activities.
Would this have a space ‘cover’ – or be words that are linked to the theme of space? I could find plenty of visuals on Twinkl that had planets or rockets with everyday words – but not a resource that used words about space.
I asked Chatgpt (give me a list of words that use ccvc or cvcc about the theme of space)- but it doesn’t really know its consonants from its vowels:
Sure! Here are some words related to space that follow the CCVC or CVCC structure:
CCVC Words:
Star
Moon
Mars
Plan (short for planet)
Glow (from “glow” of stars or planets)CVCC Words:
Dust (space dust)
Rock (space rock or asteroid)
Moon (assuming a slightly looser interpretation as it phonetically can be “mo-on”)
Warp (as in warp speed)
Ring (planetary rings)
These words adhere to the requested phonetic patterns and are related to the theme of space.
Which shows the issue with generative AI – it can rearrange words in a general sense, but has to be taken with many pinches of salt!
