Today is ________________. Block 1: Opening Daily Review You will need to type the date each day in the PowerPoint or write it on the board. As the program progresses, consider having students write or contribute to the daily message. Topic Suggestions: Teacher says; students repeat. Weather: “It is hot today.” Activities taught yesterday: “We learned the letter ____ yesterday.” Activities for today: “Today, we will write our names.” Teacher Note Use "Frere Jacques“ melody to sing: Today is _______. Today is _______. All day long, all day long. Yesterday was ______. Tomorrow will be _______. Oh what fun! Oh what fun! Activity: Daily Message Chant Today is ________________. Students, this is our daily message. It tells us the date. Please follow along as I read the sentence. “Today is ____________ (day of the week, day of the month, month of the year and year.)” Message What is today’s date? “Today is _______________.” Tell your partner the date.

Block 1: Opening Click here to hear the letter sounds. Daily Review Students have learned all the letters and their sounds of the alphabet. Using the alphabet, teacher selects five or more letters to review. Review the letter name and sound. Alternate the pattern of letter name, sound and word between teacher and student. Review letter patterns and vowel patterns with students. Refer to term 4 posters: Short and Long Vowels & Digraphs Select the letter patterns or letters to review based on student needs and time.

Select the words based on student needs and time. Consider creating a word wall with all the high-frequency words taught up to term 3. Teacher first reads a High-Frequency Word. Students chorally read the High-Frequency Word. CFU options: 1. Teacher asks for non-volunteers to read the word he is pointing to aloud. 2. Teacher asks students to put their finger on the word ________. 3. Teacher asks students to whisper the word he is pointing to. 4. Teacher asks students to read the word she is pointing to in a squeaky voice. Teacher Note: Method of Delivery

We will segment and blend words. Block 2: Phonemic Awareness (Cumulative phonics activity.) Solving Math Problems 1 Determine what the question is asking. 2 Determine the math concept required. 3 Determine relevant information. 4 Solve the problem, then interpret the answer. 5 Check the reasonableness of your answer. Learning Objective What will we do with words? We will ________ words. Declare the Objective We will segment and blend words. Guided Practice To segment is to separate the sounds in a word. Blending is putting the sounds together to make a word. Beginning sound is the first sound in a word. Ending sound is the last sound in a word. Remember the Concept hog 2 goat farm 4 sheep sound duck rooster 8 red Solving Math Problems 1 What am I trying to find? 2 What do I know about this idea? 3 What amounts do I know? 4 Solve the problem or answer the question. 5 Did I answer all parts of the question? Click to animate the picture. Students will be expected to manipulate the sounds in this activity by using segmenting, smooth blending and identifying beginning and ending sounds. Explain to the students a hog is a big pig. Teacher points to picture/greyed text and says the word. /hog/ Students repeat the word. Alternate between teacher and students five times. Teacher says, “Let’s say the sounds in /hog/ - /h/ /o/ /g/.” Teacher and students alternate segmenting the word five times. Use fingers to represent each sound in the word to assist with segmenting, if needed. Teacher asks the students, “What is the beginning sound in hog? The beginning sound in hog is /h/.” Teacher asks the students, “What is the ending sound in hog? The ending sound in hog is /g/.” Then, teacher blends the word /hooog/. Alternate between teacher and students five times. Teacher and students say the word /hog/. Alternate between teacher and students five times. Teacher Note: Method of Delivery

We will make new words. Make a new word. -uck Block 2: Phonemic Awareness (Make new words.) Learning Objective To make new words, change the beginning sound. Remember the Concept We will make new words. Skill Development & Guided Practice Make a new word. -uck d/uck b/uck p/uck m/uck Students are practising making a new word by changing beginning sounds. Explain to students a buck is a male deer and that muck is dirt or rubbish. Say the word (duck). Teacher and students alternate five times. Teacher separates the sounds by onset and rime: d/uck. Teacher and students alternate five times. Teacher will say, “Now, we will change the /d/ in duck to /b/. Now say b/uck (onset/rime).” Teacher and students alternate five times. Say the new word b/uck=buck. Continue to change sounds to make new words such as /b/ in buck to /p/ in make new word puck and /p/ in puck to /m/ to make the new word muck. Effective Feedback: If students answer incorrectly, or do not have a response, de-escalate by repeating the beginning sound and by segmenting by onsets and rimes. Teacher Note: Method of Delivery

Skill Development & Guided Practice Make a new word. cra- cra b cra ck cra sh cra m Students are practising making a new word by changing ending sounds. Explain to students that a crack is a space on something that is created when broken and cram is to stuff things into a small space. Say the word (crab). Teacher and students alternate five times. Teacher separates the sounds by onset and rime: cr/ab. Teacher and students alternate five times. Teacher will say, “Now, we will change the /b/ sound to /k/ make new word. Now say cr/ack (onset/rime).” Teacher and students alternate five times. Say the new word cr/ack = crack. Continue to change sounds to make new word such as changing /k/ in crack to /sh/ to make the new word crash and change /sh/ in crash to /m/ to make new word cram. Effective Feedback: If students answer incorrectly, or do not have a response, de-escalate by repeating the ending sound and by segmenting by onsets and rimes. Teacher Note: Method of Delivery

Cut out each card on slides four and five and give a pencil to each student. Directions: Place cards on table face down and give students blank paper. Have students take turns choosing two cards. If the two cards match have students set them aside and write the word down on their paper. If the cards do not match, have them flip the cards back. Continue matching, until all cards are gone. Note: Not all squares on the paper will be filled with words. Materials: Print out this slide and give a pencil and crayons to each student. Directions: Ask the students to write three or more sentences about a farm. If they are able to write additional sentences about a farm, please allow it. Make sure that they are using an upper case at the beginning, finger space between words and punctuation marks at the end. Allow students to stretch out the words to spell. Prior to the activity, create an example for the students. Then, have students draw a farm. Note: If students lack prior knowledge about farms, please select a different topic.
