Lesson 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D

Phonograms we are working on this week: AI Nursery Rhyme: “Johnny Shall Have A New Bonnet” Popular Nursery Rhyme

Letter Tiles • Guide students to sound out their phonogram tiles to build words from the lesson. You can do this as a class (guided) to begin with and slowly move it to independent work.

Dry Erase Board activities • Guide students to sound out and write words from each lesson onto their dry erase board. You can do this as a class (guided) to begin with and slowly move it to independent work.

Plastic Sheet Protector activities • Use plastic sheet protectors to create dry erase sheets for students to copy words. You can place phonogram sheets from the lesson in the sheet protectors and let the student complete the work this way.

Phonics Bingo • Play games of phonics bingo.

Dictation • When dictating phonograms make sure to say all the sounds each phonogram makes. When dictating sentences say each word in the sentence slowly allowing students time to sound out and write the words. Once the students have written the complete sentence, say it again slowly allowing students to check their work. You can gradually increase the pace as the students are ready.

Read Aloud • We recommend daily read aloud time at the end of the day before dismissal. Set aside 15-30 minutes per day for reading and discussion/narration.
