Week 4, lesson 4 Letter formation - "igh" - Phonics Phase 3 - Worksheet

In the fourth week and fourth lesson of the Phonics Phase 3 curriculum, students focus on letter formation, specifically honing in on the "igh" phoneme. A worksheet is provided to support the learning objective of the day. The task set out for the students is to identify and circle words that contain the /igh/ sound. This sound, represented by the letters "igh", is a common phoneme found in English words and is a key focus for young learners as they develop their reading and writing skills.

The worksheet presents a simple exercise where students are given a list of words, among them "high", "sail", "deep", and "right". Their task is to discern which words include the /igh/ phoneme and circle them accordingly. This activity not only reinforces their understanding of the "igh" sound but also aids in their ability to recognize phonemes within different words. Through such exercises, learners enhance their phonemic awareness, an essential component of literacy education in the early years.
