In this video, your blooming reader will discover: ✅ The -CK Rule: after a short vowel in a one-syllable word, spell the ending /k/ with -ck (like in duck, sack, and lock). ✅ When NOT to use -ck (after long vowels or consonants, like in milk or soak). ✅ Real word examples sung in a playful, memorable way. 🌿You can download FREE Aligned CK Rule Poster & Coloring Page here: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/P... 🌱 Why it works: Children learn best when songs, movement, and multisensory practice come together.
