Week 5, lesson 1 Letters Lost at Sea letter formation activity - Worksheet

In the engaging 'Letters Lost at Sea' letter formation activity, young learners are presented with the challenge of rescuing letters that have been nearly erased by the imaginary waves. This worksheet, which forms part of Week 5, Day 1 of the 75All Aboard Phonics Phase 4 Teacher Manual, aims to reinforce the students' knowledge of letter shapes and their ability to spell words correctly. The task begins with a few letters provided as a starting point: 'a', 'c', and 'd'.

Children are encouraged to use their phonics skills to spell out words, with the initial letter of each word already given as a clue. To assist with the task, a letter bank is included at the bottom of the page for reference, ensuring that students have the support they need if they find themselves struggling. This hands-on activity not only helps with letter recognition and formation but also enhances spelling abilities, as students work to complete the words that have been partially 'washed away' by the sea.
