Week 6 lesson 2 "ow" - Phonics Phase 3 - Presentation

In the second lesson of Week 6, focusing on the "ow" sound as part of Phonics Phase 3, the structure is meticulously planned to ensure a comprehensive learning experience for the students. The lesson begins with an introduction that sets the stage for the day's phonics focus. The class then revisits the alphabet, reinforcing the foundational knowledge required for phonics learning. This is followed by a 'Word Breaker' activity, which serves to review previously learned sounds and words, providing a smooth transition into the new content.

As the lesson moves into the teaching phase, students are presented with the "ow" sound, exploring its usage and pronunciation. The practice segment allows the children to engage with the "ow" sound in a variety of words, enhancing their understanding and retention. A specific focus on the word "mood" helps to contextualize the sound within language use. Mini whiteboard work is incorporated, offering a hands-on activity that encourages active participation and allows for immediate teacher feedback. The lesson concludes with an opportunity to apply the learned phonics skills in different contexts, ensuring that students can recognize and use the "ow" sound effectively. The structured approach, from introduction to application, aims to build the students' confidence and proficiency in phonics.
