Lesson Four Phonics

 To pronounce the sound /æ/ on its own and in words
 To identify the letter a in the middle of words and associate it with the sound /æ/
 To blend the vowel with consonants to form simple CVC words
Language
 Language focus: listening, speaking, and reading
 Vocabulary: cat, fan, man
Resources and materials

 Phonics cards 36–38 (cat, fan, man) and 1, 3, 6, 13, 14, 20
 A reader of your choice
Language note: CVC words
“Blending” is saying individual sounds and then running them together in order to “sound out” a word. CVC words
are three-letter words which follow the pattern consonant-vowel-consonant. The last three phonics lessons will
teach children how to blend consonants and vowels to form simple three-letter words.

Introduction
Weather report: Ask the class about today's weather.
Song: Play a warm-up song.
Warmer

represent (/θ/).
 Play the recording (Track 103) and say the chant from page 63 to review the sound /θ/.
Lead-in
 Tell children that they are no longer looking at sounds at the beginning of words; they are now looking at sounds in
the middle of words.
 Hold up the cat, fan, and man phonics cards one at a time, saying the words for the class to repeat. Ask children what
today’s letter is (a) and what sound it makes (/æ/).
 Call three children to come to the front of the class. Give them the phonics cards for c, a, and t. Ask children to stand
a short distance from each other. Point to the letters for the class to name them.
 Ask the children with the cards to move closer together. Encourage the class to say the sounds again and run them
together to pronounce the word cat.
 Tell children that saying the sounds separately and putting them together can help them say and read new words.
 Use the same process with different children holding new cards. Children say f-a-n and m-a-n.
 Ask children What’s the vowel? to elicit a.

Presentation
Listen, point, and repeat. (Exercise 1)
 Ask children to look at the words that contain the vowel a in their Student Books.
