Week 5, lesson 4 New Grapheme "ph" cards - Phonics Phase 5, unit 1

During Week 5, Lesson 4 of Phonics Phase 5, Unit 1, children are introduced to the new grapheme "ph" which represents the same sound as the letter 'f'. This lesson is an essential part of their phonics education, helping them to recognise and understand the "ph" sound in words. The teaching resources, such as phonics cards, are designed to make this learning process interactive and engaging. Children will encounter words like "fish" and phrases such as "fish that goes splish," which incorporate the "ph" sound, allowing them to see it in context and start to familiarise themselves with this alternative spelling.

The lesson materials provided by AllAboardLearning.com are tailored to support children as they expand their phonetic knowledge. The use of repetitive and rhyming phrases helps to reinforce the new grapheme, making it easier for young learners to remember. By the end of the lesson, students should be more comfortable identifying the "ph" sound in words and understanding that it can be used as an alternative to the letter 'f'. These foundational skills are crucial for developing reading fluency and spelling accuracy in their future learning.
