Week 3, lesson 1 Letter formation - "g" - Phonics Phase 2 - Worksheet
English Resource Description
The focus of Week 3, Lesson 1 in the Phonics Phase 2 curriculum is on the letter formation of the grapheme "g" and the phoneme /o/. The objective of the lesson is to familiarise the students with the /o/ sound, introduced through an engaging character, the Ox in Red Socks. The lesson begins with a fun 'Quickdash' activity, where children review flashcards of graphemes and pictophones they have previously learned, shouting out the corresponding phoneme and name at an increasing pace to reinforce their memory and recognition skills.
Teachers then tell a story that features the Ox in Red Socks, using the opportunity to emphasise the /o/ sound, which helps the children associate the sound with the character and the grapheme
