Week 5, lesson 1 CCVC Review Day - Phonics Phase 4 - Lesson plan

The lesson plan for Week 5, Day 1 of Phase 4 in the All Aboard Phonics program is centred around a review of CCVC words, which are consonant-consonant-vowel-consonant structured words. The objective of the day is to reinforce the children's skills in reading and spelling these types of words. The teacher begins by engaging the class in a discussion to ensure they understand what CCVC words are. Following this, the lesson moves into a 'Quickdash' activity, where the children rapidly identify phonemes from previously learned graphemes and pictophones, increasing in speed to challenge their recall abilities.

The 'Teach/Practise' segment of the lesson involves writing words on the board, such as 'clam', 'clip', 'slip', etc., for the whole class to decode and blend together, reinforcing their phonics knowledge. Additionally, a 'Word Match' game is played where pairs of children match word flashcards to corresponding CCVC object flashcards displayed on the board. This interactive activity helps to solidify their understanding of the words' meanings and their spellings. The lesson concludes with 'Mini Whiteboard Work', where children are tasked with writing dictated words and phrases on their whiteboards, allowing for individual practice and assessment of their ability to apply what they have learned about CCVC words in both reading and writing contexts.
