Week 6, Assessment week Sound Stepping Stones - Phonics Phase 4 - Worksheet

In Week 6 of the phonics programme, the focus is on consolidating the children's understanding of Phase 4 sounds through an engaging 'Sound Stepping Stones' worksheet. This activity is designed to help young learners differentiate between real words and pseudo words. The task involves a fun and imaginative scenario where the children are asked to imagine themselves on a journey to a new island, traversing a path made of stepping stones. The key instruction is that they can only step on stones that have real words written on them.

The worksheet presents a series of words, and the children must identify which ones are real. These words include 'dent', 'plum', 'flip', 'snoff', 'camp', 'hamp', 'crip', 'nilt', 'kapt', 'out', 'spot', 'truckstip', and 'bemp lost'. The children are instructed to colour in the stones that have real words on them, reinforcing their phonics knowledge and word recognition skills. This activity not only aids in their phonetic development but also encourages critical thinking as they analyse each word. It's a playful way to assess their progress in phonics at the end of Week 6.
