Week 12, lesson 5 High Frequency Words (had,my,her,what,says) - Phonics Phase 5, unit 2 - Presentation

Week 12, Lesson 5 of Phonics Phase 5, Unit 2, introduces young learners to a set of high frequency words that are pivotal in developing their reading and writing skills. The high frequency words for this lesson are 'had', 'my', 'her', 'what', and 'says'. These words are common in English and recognising them quickly can greatly improve a child's fluency in reading. The lesson starts with an introduction to these words, ensuring that students are familiar with their appearance and pronunciation.

As the lesson progresses, students revisit these words through engaging activities like 'Word Breaker', which helps to reinforce their spelling and recognition. The practice section provides an opportunity for students to use the words in context, enhancing their understanding of each word's usage. The 'Mini Whiteboard Work' is an interactive segment where students can write the words, aiding in memorisation and handwriting proficiency. As the lesson comes to an end, students apply what they have learned by using the high frequency words in sentences or small passages, demonstrating their ability to incorporate these words into their everyday language skills.
