HOW TO CREATE A BLACK SPOT FLIP BOOK PAGE

• use the arrows on each row to select an image
• Once you have created a Black Spot page then decide on two actions or sounds to do for each symbol

HOW TO PLAY BLACK SPOT

e.g.

circle = ‘click’; spot = ‘clap’

• Count a steady beat and follow the pattern of symbols doing the actions or making the sounds you decided on.

Be imaginative and creative but most importantly don’t cheat! If you get in a muddle, admit it, you just hit a Black Spot and must start again!!

That is just one of many, many different ways of playing Black Spot.

HERE ARE SOME IDEAS FOR DIFFERENT USES OF BLACK SPOT:

• Read as fast or as slow as you can – remember, keep a steady beat and don’t cheat!
• Repeat the page a set number of times without pause or hesitation
• Read lines backwards, or by columns
• Swap actions around
• Memorise pages and string them together to make longer, more complex patterns
• Combine a multitude of ideas to create pieces.
