Students are learning how English is written and read through phonics.
In Sounding Out activities, students take a regular word, such as sat, produce the letter-sound pattern "sssaaat," and blend to produce the word sat. This is a crucial development in learning to read, bringing together skills that students have spent many weeks working on and providing the first excitement of reading unaided. Being able to sound out regular words also provides students with a self-teaching capability: they can decode unaided words they do not yet recognize on sight.
This video segment from Between the Lions uses a fun hip-hop song about names to highlight the /uh/ sound that the letter u makes and to boost phonemic awareness--an understanding of the sounds within words.
Do you need to teach -dge? I, personally, could never find any good resources on teaching this tricky, yet necessary, phonics trigraph. This lesson should take approximately 2-3 sessions. The design is compatible with small group, Station Rotation, or whole class instruction. I've tried to provide enough options to make this lesson adaptable to a blended learning setting, so you can do it F2F or digitally.
Phonics word lists: introduction and lists of closed syllable words with different vowels and patterns.
This video segment from Between the Lions is a music video featuring Fonix in a blue performance area singing about the joys of the aríń sound. Appearing on screen are the letters and words: a, r, Martha, Mark, park, gargle, car, hard, start, smart, cart, far, star, and part. This video segment provides a resource for Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Letter Knowledge Awareness, and Phonological Awareness. ***Access to Teacher's Domain content now requires free login to PBS Learning Media.
