Week 25, lesson 2 Review Day - Phonics Phase 5, unit 3 - Presentation

In the second lesson of Week 25, students in Phonics Phase 5, Unit 3, engage in a Review Day focused on consolidating their understanding of the phonemes and graphemes covered previously. The lesson begins with a 'Quickdash' activity, which serves as a warm-up to revisit and reinforce the words students have been learning. This dynamic start to the lesson ensures that the children are ready to engage with the day's objectives and helps to jog their memory of the phonics content they've been working on.

As the lesson moves forward, the teaching component introduces the phoneme 'rare' and its associated graphemes found in words like 'hair' and 'pear'. Students are encouraged to articulate these sounds and recognise the spelling patterns within different words. Following this, the 'Mini Whiteboard Work' provides a hands-on practice opportunity for students to write and manipulate the phonemes they've learned. This interactive approach allows for immediate feedback and correction, aiding in the retention of the material. The lesson concludes with an application phase, where students demonstrate their understanding and ability to use the phonemes in reading or writing tasks, solidifying their learning from the session.
