Week 25, lesson 1 Phonemes "air, ear,are" - Phonics Phase 5, unit 3 - Presentation

Week 25, lesson 1 of Phonics Phase 5, unit 3, introduces young learners to the phonemes "air," "ear," and "are." The lesson begins by revisiting these sounds, providing an opportunity for children to refresh their memory and reinforce their understanding of the sounds through a 'Quickdash' activity. The presentation is designed to be interactive and engaging, ensuring that students remain attentive and interested as they navigate through the slides, starting from the introduction and moving through the sequence of activities planned for the lesson.

During the 'TEACH' phase, the lesson focuses on words such as "bear," "stare," and "fair," which incorporate the target phonemes. This helps to contextualise the sounds within real words, enhancing the children's ability to recognise and pronounce them correctly. The 'PRACTISE' stage of the lesson involves a 'Rhyme Time' activity and the use of mini whiteboards, allowing students to engage in hands-on learning by writing words and sentences that contain the phonemes. The 'APPLY' section is designed to consolidate the learning, enabling children to demonstrate their understanding of the phonemes "air," "ear," and "are" in a practical context. The lesson concludes with a structured end, ensuring that the learning objectives of the lesson have been met and that students are prepared to move on to the next stage of their phonics education.
