Week 2, lesson 5 Review Day CCVC Words - Phonics Phase 4 - Lesson plan

In the second week's fifth lesson of the 40 All Aboard Phonics Phase 4 Teacher Manual, the focus is on reinforcing children's understanding of CCVC (consonant-consonant-vowel-consonant) words. The objective is clear: to review both reading and spelling of these particular word structures. The lesson begins with a fun 'Letter Pops' activity where children are given grapheme cards and are asked to react quickly by holding up their card when they hear the corresponding phoneme.

The 'Teach' segment of the lesson involves a 'Sentence Sub' exercise. The teacher writes a sentence on the board and reads it aloud, then changes one word for another, prompting the children to decide if the new sentence still makes sense. This interactive approach not only engages the children but also allows them to practice decoding in a group setting. Moving on to 'Practise', the 'Word Match Lines' game gets the children active and involved. They pair up object flashcards with the correct word flashcards through decoding and matching, promoting both recognition and understanding of CCVC words. Finally, in the 'Apply' stage, the class works together to interpret a scene depicted in an image, and then they write down the corresponding phrase on their whiteboards, thus applying their phonics knowledge in a practical writing exercise.
