My Phonics Book

Phoneme means the sound and grapheme means the way we write the sound so the letter or letters that make up that sound.
Phonic books can help in teaching someone phonics and also support individuals with dyslexia.
Phonics is a way of teaching children how to read and write. It helps children hear, identify and use different sounds that distinguish one word from another in the English language.

Group Assignment 2: English home language lesson - completed by group member

English Home Language Lesson Plan

Aim:

For the learners to be able to build 3-letter words using the sound “at”

Overall objectives:

• To be able to identify letter-sound relationships

• Linking sounds “at” to the symbols “at”

• To match the word with the object on the worksheet

• To build words up using sound “at”

• To integrate play into teaching

Resources:

• Chart of alphabet

• Pictures of objects that contain three letters

• Individual letters blown up

• Poem

Introduction:

• Going to ask the learners does anybody have any pets. (this will introduce the poem about a cat)

Exposition (10 minutes):

Shared reading

• This is where the poem would be read to them. The focus will be on the “at” sound . While reading the poem will have the sound out the words that have the “at’ sound; “cAT", “mAT"

• We are first going to go through the alphabet, and link the letters to the sound you make pronouncing them.

Then we introduce to words with three letters (Example: Cat, Bat, Mat etc)

After we go through the words, we break up each word into single letters and then link the sound to the symbol (letter[AJM[3] ).

• We going to break up the words

B-at

C-at

M-at

Conclusion (10 minutes):

We will go over the same words but this time the letters will be jumbled underneath the picture, and they will have to sound out and un-jumble the letters to form the word in the picture. Once done they will break off into their micro groups.

A PowerPoint will be shown on the smart board where the learners will go over the sound “at” that they learnt.

English Home Language Lesson Plan - TP

LESSON PLAN FOUNDATION PHASE GRADE 1:

Aim:

· Students will be able to retell a nursery rhyme with H words using visual supports.

Overall Objectives

· Students will be able to sequence a nursery rhyme.

· Students will be able to identify words that begin with the letter H.

Resources

Make use of concrete objects as far as possible

· Class set of the Humpty Dumpty Nursery Rhyme worksheet

· Vocabulary Cards

Introduction (state time) On Mat (All activities, Questions etc.)

· Gather the class together.

· Ask the class to sing the ABCs along with you (as you sing, point to a class alphabet chart), stop singing at the letter H. Say, "This is the letter H. The letter H makes the /hhh/ sound like this. There are many words that start with the letter H. Today we are going to learn a funny nursery rhyme that has H words in it."

Activity and Purpose of Activity

· Pass out the worksheet and have students circle all of the H words.

· Then have them practice retelling the story to a peer.

· Take note of any students who are struggling to connect the sequence of the story as they retell it.

· Pull these students aside for follow up.

· As students are sharing their H words (in the prior section) note if any students have misconceptions and/or challenges identifying H words.

Exposition (time)

· Display the vocabulary cards and say each name aloud as you show the image, emphasizing the beginning sound (H).

· Ask students to turn and talk to share with a partner the new words they heard and what they have in common, or how they are similar.

· Tell students that all of the words begin with the letter H.

· Demonstrate drawing an uppercase H on the board.

· Model how you start at the top. Have students practice drawing an invisible H in the air with their fingers (or trace an H on the rug).

· Repeat for the lowercase h, explaining that all letters have an upper and lowercase way to write them, although they make the same sound.

· Ask students if they can think of any other words that begin with the letter H.

· Have students turn and talk to share their ideas with a partner using the sentence starter, " __ __ __ __ also starts with H."

· Encourage pairs to share their words aloud (check that all words start with the letter H) and record the words on the board for reference.

· Explain that now you will be reading a nursery rhyme that has H words in it.

· Define a nursery rhyme as a short story (often silly) that has rhyming words in it.

· Tell students that today's nursery rhyme is about a funny character named Humpty Dumpty.

· Reveal your pre-written text to the class.

· Point to each word of the rhyme as you read it aloud, pausing at the H words and underlining them (while displaying the image) to the class.

· Ask students to repeat each line after you as you read it a second time.

· Have students share ideas with the class of what happens in the rhyme using sentence starters: First __ __ __ __, then __ __ __ __, finally __ __ __ __ .(e.g. Humpty sat on a wall, he falls, he gets help, he can't be put back together)

· Explain that the class just retold the story using their own words

Conclusion (time)

· Gather the class back together and review the importance of listening closely while reading to be able to retell a story.

· Have students share an H word with the class using a complete sentence.

Group work

Activities (at tables, give proper instructions, correct register)

Group Starfish (Advanced)

· Encourage students to share additional sentences using H words.

· Provide a second nursery rhyme for them to retell in their own words.

Group Turtles (Intermediate)

(At tables, give proper instructions, proper register)

·

Group Jellyfish (Beginner)

(At tables, give proper instructions, proper register)

· Provide a picture sort of H and non H words for students to practice identifying which words begin with the letter H. Put students in a small group and have them practice acting out and retelling the nursery rhyme in their own words.

Focus Group (On mat)

Sharks

· Read each line aloud again (having students either repeat after you, or chorally read with you).

· While you are reading, have students practice acting out the story silently.

· Have students come up and point to the words in the rhyme that begin with the letter H.
