An Awesome Dinosaur' Learn To Spell Words With 'au' and 'aw' (7-11 years) - Teacher Notes

'An Awesome Dinosaur' is a delightful educational resource designed for children aged 7 to 11 years, focused on teaching the spelling of words containing the 'au' and 'aw' phonemes. Through engaging with this material, children are encouraged to read and write whimsical rhymes, which serve as a fun and interactive method to practice their spelling skills. The activity culminates with a spelling test to assess their learning progress and reinforce the phonics taught.

This resource is part of a comprehensive series of 22 work packs, each dedicated to a different phonic sound, with the aim of teaching and reinforcing phonic sounds. Understanding phonics is crucial, as it enables children to break down words into initial blends, ending blends, and the 44 middle sounds, thus empowering them to spell words correctly. Zoggy, a charming and clever character from the planet Zen, guides the children through the challenges. The work packs are designed to be a fun and effective way to learn spelling, incorporating adorable cartoons, silly phonic rhymes, and practice tests. These packs are structured to align with the National Curriculum and can be used in conjunction with a teacher or parent, providing a supportive learning experience.
