In the second week of Phonics Phase 5, Unit 1, lesson 5 introduces the new grapheme , expanding on the children's understanding of the /or/ phoneme. The objective of the lesson is to familiarise students with this grapheme and its association with the /or/ sound. The lesson begins by presenting various pictophones, including the Organ, which the children select to represent the /or/ phoneme. Once the Organ pictophone is chosen, it's placed on the board to visually reinforce the sound.

The lesson continues with a 'Quickwrite' activity, where children practise writing different graphemes on their whiteboards in response to spoken phonemes, sharing their answers with the class. The teaching segment reminds students that the same phoneme can be spelled in different ways, and they explore previous spellings such as , contrasting it with the new grapheme. Practising the phoneme, the class engages in the 'Word Mood' activity, reading words like 'raw', 'hawk', and 'yawn' with various emotional intonations. The application phase includes a 'True or False' game with phrases such as "A pig has a claw" and mini whiteboard work where children write dictated words and sentences. Teaching notes clarify that the grapheme is pronounced with the Organ phoneme in England and Wales, but in Scotland and Northern Ireland, it should be taught with the Ox phoneme.
