Week 5, lesson 4 Tricky Words Review Day - Phonics Phase 4 - Presentation

In the fourth lesson of Week 5, the focus is on a comprehensive review of tricky words as part of the Phonics Phase 4 curriculum. The lesson is designed to reinforce students' recognition and writing of these challenging words that do not always follow conventional phonetic patterns. The session starts with an introduction that sets the stage for a day dedicated to revisiting and practising tricky words. The initial activity, labelled 'Quickwrite Capitals', encourages students to write these words quickly while also paying attention to the use of capital letters, fostering both speed and accuracy in their writing.

The lesson continues with two engaging practical activities to embed the students' understanding and recall of tricky words. 'TRICKY WORD JUMP' is an interactive activity where students physically jump to different words, combining kinesthetic learning with word recognition. Following this, the 'Tricky Word Race' offers a competitive element to the learning process, as students race against each other to identify and write tricky words correctly. The lesson then moves on to 'Mini Whiteboard Work', where students apply their knowledge by writing the tricky words on whiteboards, allowing for individual practice and immediate feedback. The lesson concludes with a review of the activities, ensuring that students are confident in recognising and writing these tricky words before they progress further in their phonics education.
