Week 11, lesson 3 Review Week: Vowels - Phonics Phase 3, - Presentation
English Resource Description
In the third lesson of Week 11's Review Week, the focus is on revising vowels within the context of Phonics Phase 3. The session begins with an introductory activity that sets the scene for the lesson's content, aiming to refresh the pupils' memories about vowels. The structure of the lesson is designed to gradually build up the students' confidence and ability in identifying and using vowels correctly in various words and contexts.
The lesson continues with a 'Quickdash' activity that serves to revisit and consolidate the pupils' prior knowledge. Moving on to the teaching segment, the instructor introduces a particular vowel sound and accompanies it with relevant word examples to ensure understanding. Pupils then get the opportunity to practice this sound through a 'Quickwrite' exercise, which encourages active participation and reinforces their learning. The lesson progresses to the application phase with a 'Caption Match' activity, where students match captions to images, further applying their understanding of vowel sounds in context. Additionally, they are presented with phrases such as "Burn a bit of wood" and "Shear the sheep" to apply their phonics skills in a practical setting. The lesson concludes by summarising the key points and ensuring that the students are comfortable with the material covered before they exit the session and proceed to the next stage of their learning journey.
