tricky word with the t sound at the

beginning the ooh sound in the middle

and at the end the interesting

sound

he makes it he will win a tube of

toothpaste

he's taking a writing element from his

pencil case it's a number two pencil a

smart choice for this word

tiger positions himself at the t just

look at that perfect stroke he writes

the letter o and look it's a second

beautifully ex*cuted letter o making the

vowels o o which makes the sound ooh

with the letter t that makes the sound

ooh two it's really looking good for

tiger

now all he has to do is add the sound at

the end of the word

he raises his pencil

oh what a disappointment he wrote the

letter f which makes the sound

he's written the word toof

but but wait he's noticed his mistake

he's turning his pencil around and he's

erasing the letter f

and yes yes he's writing the letters t h

changing the word

tooth he's done it again and there goes

our champion tiger woods to accept his

toothpaste congratulations tiger
