Introduce different flowers: Begin by showing pictures or flashcards of various flowers to the student. Talk about the different colors, shapes, and sizes of the flowers.

Spelling practice: Write the names of the flowers on the whiteboard or paper, leaving out a few letters. Ask the student to fill in the missing letters to complete the spelling of each flower. For example, if the flower is "rose," you can write "_ _ s _" and the student needs to fill in the missing letters.
