Week 4, lesson 3 Letter formation activity - Phonics Phase 5, unit 1 - Worksheet

In the third lesson of Week 4, as part of the Phonics Phase 5 curriculum, students are presented with a letter formation activity that focuses on the 'i_e' sound. This worksheet is an essential tool for reinforcing the correct formation of words containing this specific split digraph. Students are encouraged to trace a list of words, allowing them to practice and consolidate their handwriting skills while simultaneously reinforcing their phonetic understanding of the 'i_e' sound.

The worksheet provides a set of words that include 'time', 'side', 'prize', 'shine', 'pipe', and 'bride'. Each word is carefully chosen to represent the split digraph and to provide a variety of examples. By tracing these words, students will not only improve their letter formation but also enhance their ability to recognize and read words with the 'i_e' sound. This activity serves as a foundational step in developing proficient reading and writing skills within the context of the Phonics Phase 5 unit.
