Week 12, lesson 4 Anagrams Washed Ashore - Phonics Phase 5, unit 2 - Worksheet

In this engaging phonics worksheet for Week 12, Day 4, young learners are presented with a fun challenge to unscramble anagrams that have 'washed ashore'. Each set of jumbled letters, or graphemes, represent a word that the students must decipher. They are encouraged to use their phonics skills from Phase 5, Unit 2, to sound out and correctly spell each word. The exercise not only tests their understanding of grapheme-phoneme correspondences but also reinforces their spelling abilities. For example, they might see a mix of letters such as 'oo c k ie nk ey o d' and 'g d ar e n', which they need to rearrange into recognisable words, ensuring they articulate the sounds as they go along.

The worksheet is designed to be both educational and entertaining, prompting children to think critically about the sounds that make up words. It helps to solidify their grasp of Phase 5 phonics by providing a hands-on activity that requires them to apply their knowledge in a practical context. As they work through the anagrams, the students are also practising their problem-solving and literacy skills. The aim is for them to confidently identify each scrambled word, write it out correctly, and improve their ability to decode unfamiliar words in the future.
