Week 6, lesson 3 Tricky word treasures letter formation - Phonics Phase 3 - Worksheet

In Week 6, Day 3 of the Phonics Phase 3 programme, students are presented with an engaging worksheet titled 'Tricky Word Treasures'. This activity is designed to help young learners navigate the complexities of words that don't always follow the standard phonetic rules, often referred to as 'tricky words'. The worksheet encourages children to trace the letters of the word 'you', filling in the blanks to complete the word. This not only reinforces their understanding of the word itself but also aids in developing their letter formation skills.

Once the word 'you' is mastered through tracing and completion, the students are then asked to read the phrase 'you can hug a dog', practicing their reading fluency with the newly learned tricky word in context. To add an element of fun and reinforce their learning journey, the worksheet includes a maze. The children are tasked with following the maze to find a reward, symbolizing the treasure of successfully learning and applying their knowledge of tricky words. This interactive approach combines literacy skills with a bit of adventure, keeping the learning process enjoyable and memorable for the students.
