Spelling - ng

This educational resource is designed to help children learn and practise the 'ng' sound in English. The lesson begins with colourful slides displayed on a whiteboard to engage the class, while printable versions of the activities are available for use in conjunction with exercise books or on their own. The children are invited to discuss images that represent words containing the 'ng' sound, such as 'ring' and 'king', and are encouraged to sound out these words to identify the common sound. The teacher will guide the children through sounding out and blending words with the 'ng' sound, with the help of visual aids to reinforce the connection between the images and their corresponding words.

Subsequent activities include adding sound buttons, dots, and dashes to words to help visualise phonetic components, with opportunities for self-correction and peer review. Children are also challenged to create new words using given letters, and label pictures to reinforce their understanding. In a more interactive segment, the 'Caterpillar game' encourages children to spell words correctly to build a caterpillar, promoting a fun and educational spelling exercise. The lesson also includes a 'Spell check' where children can test their spelling skills against a list of 'ng' sound words, and a reminder for homework to continue their learning outside the classroom. Advanced exercises such as 'Bingo', 'Challenge cards', and 'Flash cards' are provided to cater to different learning levels, ensuring a comprehensive approach to mastering the 'ng' sound.
