Mrs Mac's Classroom

I have been teaching for many years. I have taught children over a huge variety of grades but my favourite age group is Foundation and Year 1. (5 & 6 year olds) I love the enthusiasm and the wonder they display as they discover the world. I love making top quality resources and would like to share them with other dedicated educators. Many of my resources have been developed over time, I have used them in my own classroom and developed and adjusted them for my students.

This is one of my many Phonics Presentations that are designed for the teacher to introduce phonic sounds to their students. If you are teaching with any synthetic phonics program they are perfect for your introduction to each of the phonemes (sounds) in the English language. Each presentation focuses on one phoneme (sound) and one particular grapheme (spelling choice) but allows for further discussion on the other common graphemes that are used to represent the phoneme in English. The presentations can be used to complement any of the major spelling or phonics programs including the THRASS and S.M.A.R.T. Spelling programs. Each presentation consists of 6 presentation slides. • Slide 1 displays a word and a matching picture and is designed to encourage students to disucss prior knowledge and identify the sounds they can recognise in the word. Allow them to identify both the letters and the phonemes in the word. This enables the students to take ‘ownership’ of the lesson. • Slide 2 is designed for the teacher to teach the students to SOUND THE WORD. The target phoneme is highlighted and each phoneme (sound) in the word is presented in a separate box. After a discussion about all of the sounds in the word the students can practice sounding and blending with the presentation. For Example, students “Say the word, say each of the phonemes (sounds) in the word, repeat the word. E.g. ‘ball’, ‘b’, ‘a’, ‘ll’ ‘ball’.” (Note - the slides will move automatically on to the next sound/box) • Slide 3 is designed for the teacher to teach the students to SPELL THE WORD. It is similar to Slide 2 except that each letter is in a separate box with the letters that form the target phoneme highlighted. Students can practice spelling the word with the presentation. For Example, students “Say the word, say the name of each letter in the word, repeat the word. E.g. ‘ball, ’b’, ’a’, ‘l’, ‘l’, ‘ball’.” (Note - the slides will move automatically on to the next letter/box) • Slide 4 is designed as a RECALL activity. The slide has the picture on it but no letters. Students are encouraged to remember and recall how to sound and spell the word as done in slides 2 & 3. • Slide 5 is designed to allow further discussion on the phoneme and other graphemes (spelling choices) to represent the target sound. • Slide 6 – attribution of picture sources. Thank you for taking the time to look at my work. I hope you enjoy using these terrific resources in your phonics/spelling program.

Phonics - 'are' as in square - Introduce and Teach

(0)
This is one of my many Phonics Presentations that are designed for the teacher to introduce phonic sounds to their students. If you are teaching with any synthetic phonics program they are perfect for your introduction to each of the phonemes (sounds) in the English language. Each presentation focuses on one phoneme (sound) and one particular grapheme (spelling choice) but allows for further discussion on the other common graphemes that are used to represent the phoneme in English. The presentations can be used to complement any of the major spelling or phonics programs including the THRASS and S.M.A.R.T. Spelling programs. Each presentation consists of 6 presentation slides. • Slide 1 displays a word and a matching picture and is designed to encourage students to disucss prior knowledge and identify the sounds they can recognise in the word. Allow them to identify both the letters and the phonemes in the word. This enables the students to take ‘ownership’ of the lesson. • Slide 2 is designed for the teacher to teach the students to SOUND THE WORD. The target phoneme is highlighted and each phoneme (sound) in the word is presented in a separate box. After a discussion about all of the sounds in the word the students can practice sounding and blending with the presentation. For Example, students “Say the word, say each of the phonemes (sounds) in the word, repeat the word. E.g. ‘ball’, ‘b’, ‘a’, ‘ll’ ‘ball’.” (Note - the slides will move automatically on to the next sound/box) • Slide 3 is designed for the teacher to teach the students to SPELL THE WORD. It is similar to Slide 2 except that each letter is in a separate box with the letters that form the target phoneme highlighted. Students can practice spelling the word with the presentation. For Example, students “Say the word, say the name of each letter in the word, repeat the word. E.g. ‘ball, ’b’, ’a’, ‘l’, ‘l’, ‘ball’.” (Note - the slides will move automatically on to the next letter/box) • Slide 4 is designed as a RECALL activity. The slide has the picture on it but no letters. Students are encouraged to remember and recall how to sound and spell the word as done in slides 2 & 3. • Slide 5 is designed to allow further discussion on the phoneme and other graphemes (spelling choices) to represent the target sound. • Slide 6 – attribution of picture sources. Thank you for taking the time to look at my work. I hope you enjoy using these terrific resources in your phonics/spelling program.
