In Week 3, Day 2 of the phonics phase 3 lesson plan, children are introduced to the phoneme /ch/ and the corresponding grapheme . The objective of the lesson is to familiarise students with this new sound, starting with a fun 'Chick on a Stick' flashcard to spark their interest. The lesson commences with a revisit to the alphabet, where the class sings the alphabet song together, ensuring that the children point to each letter as they sing. This is followed by the 'Word Breaker' activity, where the teacher selects a word, pronounces it aloud, and then the children break it down into its individual sounds before saying the whole word again in unison.

The teaching component involves telling a story about a character named 'Chick on a Stick' who enjoys chatting with friends. The story is crafted to highlight the /ch/ sound, helping to embed the phoneme in the children's minds. An accompanying action, miming a bird's beak with their hand and saying /ch/ /ch/ /ch/, reinforces the sound. In the practice phase, children learn how to form the digraph by finger writing in the air or on a friend's back. The 'Sound Jump' game is then played, where children listen for the /ch/ sound in various words and jump when they hear it. To apply their new knowledge, students engage in 'Phrase Draw', where they decode a phrase and illustrate it on their whiteboards. The lesson also includes extension activities like sorting and drawing to further consolidate learning of the /ch/ phoneme and grapheme.
