Development:
 ~Write the name of each picture on board asking students to say them as you do so. Stick each picture beside its name.
Practice:
 ~Ask students if they can use their 'brain-power' to figure out what is the same about all these words. Give prompts and clues until someone says "they all have the letters 'sh' or the sound 'sh' at the beginning. ~Encourage class to repeat the sound of the letters while you underline them, emphasizing that they make the 'sh' sound.
