Week 1, lesson 1 Phoneme "s" and Grapheme "s" - Phonics Phase 2 - Presentation

The first week of Phonics Phase 2 introduces the phoneme "s" and its corresponding grapheme "s" to learners. The lesson is structured to begin with an introduction that sets the stage for the new sound, followed by a revisit to the previously learned content to ensure a solid foundation. The "Name Game" activity serves as an engaging way to warm up and prepare students for the new phoneme and grapheme they will be exploring.

As the lesson moves forward, the teaching phase focuses on the "s" sound, with subsequent slides providing the necessary instruction and examples. Students then transition into the practice phase, where they engage in activities such as "Sound Spy" that encourage them to actively listen for and identify the "s" sound in different words. The application part of the lesson allows students to demonstrate their understanding and use of the "s" sound and grapheme in a variety of contexts. The lesson concludes with a wrap-up that brings the session to a close, ensuring that students are ready to continue their phonics journey with a solid grasp of the "s" phoneme and grapheme.
