About the -og Word Family
All -og words share the short o sound, as in octopus. This pack practises reading and writing dog, log, fog and jog. For extra writing practice, ask your child to write two more -og words, such as hog or bog, on scrap paper.
Write it together: copy the sentence “The dog sat on a log.” and circle every -og word.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which -og words will my child read and write?
The word list covers dog, log, fog and jog, and the later pages use -og words in jumbled-letter puzzles, sentences and a short story.
How is this different from the no-writing -og pack?
The no-writing pack only asks children to point, circle and match. This pack adds spelling, sentence building, a short story and comprehension questions, so it is best done after the no-writing pack.
How can I help my child spell -og words?
Say the word slowly, one sound at a time, and write each sound as you hear it: d-o-g. Then change only the first letter to spell the next -og word.
How many pages are in the -og reading and writing pack?
There are 7 printable pages. You need a printer and a pencil.
