What children learn in Level 13
- Silly words aren't real words, but you can still read them! Use the sounds you know. B, l, i, m: blim!
- Silly words help you practice reading any word, even ones you've never seen.
- Blim rhymes with swim. Chab rhymes with crab. Same ending sounds!
- Your turn! Spell the silly word zop.
- Read every sound, then blend. That works for real words and silly ones too.
