Week 2, lesson 5 "d" grapheme cards - Phonics Phase 2 - Resource

During Week 2, Day 5 of Phonics Phase 2, students are introduced to the "d" grapheme with the aid of specially designed cards. These cards are a visual teaching tool to help children recognise and understand the sound and appearance of the letter 'd' within words. The lesson's focus is on reinforcing the ability to identify and use the 'd' sound, a fundamental skill in early reading and spelling development.

The accompanying worksheet provides a practical exercise where students are tasked with filling in the missing 'd' in a series of words. This activity not only reinforces the sound and shape of the 'd' grapheme but also encourages children to connect the sound with corresponding images, enhancing their vocabulary and comprehension. After completing the words, students draw lines to match them with the correct images, solidifying the association between the letter 'd', the sound it makes, and the words it forms.
