The Glasshouse by Hélène Druvert
FREE
A word study resource inspired by the beautiful picture book The Glasshouse by Hélène Druvert. These slides use words drawn from the story to explore the bases ⟨climb⟩ and ⟨clamb⟩, alongside ⟨house⟩, ⟨lock⟩, ⟨make⟩, ⟨step⟩ and ⟨care⟩. A lovely way to investigate matrices and word sums while revising suffixing conventions (replace the silent final ⟨e⟩ and doubling), compounds, and the curious unpronounced ⟨b⟩ in climb.
