Welcome back to McLiteracy, where small words build big confidence!
In this episode, children step up to six powerful three-letter “lettery” words: ace, act, add, age, ago, air. These are short, clear words that pop up every day in reading, writing, maths, and conversation.
With friendly guidance, clear pronunciation, and simple sentence examples, young listeners are supported to:
- Say each word out loud
- Spell it slowly and correctly
- Understand what it means
- Hear it used in real, everyday sentences
Perfect for classrooms, learning at home, or listening together as a family, this episode helps children grow their vocabulary, confidence, and love of words — one small step at a time.
🎧 Ideal for:
- Early readers
- Junior & Senior Infants
- Literacy stations
- Parents supporting learning at home
Say it. Spell it. Use it.
