PROCEDURE TEACHER TALK & MODEL
Note to ELTC Trainers: Write on Board before starting the Phonics Fairy: Year 2 – Week 2 – Day 1 Explain to CPs that in Year 1 you teach a new sound every day (except Friday) – see the KSSR Year 1 Syllabus. In Year 2, because you need to teach and differentiate between many many word families, it is recommended that you teach a sound every week. 1. Hear it
Show the PHONICSS CARD ‘ee’. Do the ‘listen’ gesture (hand to ear). Make the sound ‘ee’. Make sure that all children listen to the sound. Ask the children to keep quiet (gesture ‘shhh!’) and stop them from copying you. It is very important to get them to listen to the sound first. Get the children to look at your mouth when you make the sound. NOTE TO ELTC TRAINER: Stretch your mouth wide with your index fingers when demonstrating the ‘ee’ sound to make sure the CPs make the long vowel sound instead of a short ‘ee’. Teeth should be almost closed. Refer to Task 6.ET 8 Making Sounds. Like this:
2. Say it Make the sound ‘ee’ with the ‘listen’ gesture until all the children are able to make the sound correctly. Use gesture to invite children to make the sound aloud. Get the children to make the sound in their group. Once they are able to make the sound correctly, do the ‘talk to your partner’ gesture while continue making the sound ‘ee’. Get children to blend ‘ee’ with ‘b’, ‘s’ and ‘kn’. Use the blending technique in 2.5A Blending & Revision s a t p. NB: Teach children the silent ‘k’ in ‘kn’ in a separate lesson prior to this task. ‘kn’ is the same sound as ‘n’, as in knee, know and knack.
(Listen gesture) Listen! Shhhh! (Listen gesture) Listen! ‘ee’, ‘ee’, ‘ee’, ‘ee’, ‘ee’ (Listen gesture) Listen! (Show the PHONICS CARD) ‘ee’, ‘ee’, ‘ee’, ‘ee’, ‘ee’

b + ee s + ee kn + ee Blue tac PICTURE CARD bee, see and knee on the board.
Ask the children if they know what the pictures are. Introduce the word and its respective picture. Make the sound of the word bee clearly. Repeat with see and knee.
3. Read it
Show the PHONICSS CARD and make the sound ‘ee’. Then, show the PHONICS CARD to children and invite children to make the sound by doing the ‘listen’ gesture. Get as many of the children to read the PHONICSS CARD while pointing at the card. ow, show the PHONICSS CARD ‘b’ and ask the children to make the sound aloud. Then, blend ‘b’ with ‘ee’ using the blending technique in 2.5A Blending & Revision s a t p. Repeat with PHONICS CARD ‘s’ and ‘kn’.
4. Write it
Paste the PICTURE CARD ‘bee’ on the board again. Conduct 4.2 Hangman to teach children how to write bee, see and knee.
Questions & Rationale Why do we introduce such a small vocabulary set for this task (e.g. bee, see and knee)? It is easier for children to learn Word Families with a small group of words, than a big group. It is also easier for children to learn words that are familiar to them (Metsala, Stavrinos & Walley, 2009). Therefore, when you decide how many words to include, do this:
1. Limit the words to as few as possible.
2. Include the words that are relevant to the children. (So for the ee word family, you will probably not
include tee (unless the children in your class play golf), fee, lee.
How and when do I teach kn and other sounds not in the syllabus? If you look at the Year 1 & 2 KSSR

knee 2.6 ee

Syllabi, you will notice that the sound kn is not included anywhere. However, since kn is important in the familiar words ‘knee’ ‘knife’ ‘knit’ and possibly ‘knight’ and since kn is always pronounced as ‘n’ in English, you need to teach it when it becomes necessary. This task assumes you have already done so, possibly in the previous week, or the day before! You may find other sounds that are not mentioned in the syllabus, and if you feel they are necessary and useful to children and the stories you are creating and reading, then teach these sounds in the same way as you teach all other sounds. What should I do if I have children in my class who did not do Phonics in Year 1 (for any reason)? You must not start the Year 2 Phonics Syllabus until you have finished the Year 1 Phonics Syllabus. Even if there are only 1 or 2 children who did not do Year 1 Phonics, you must still repeat the whole syllabus. The reasons for this are:
1. It won’t be possible to teach the Phonics in Year 2 (which includes diphthongs, and longer word families, if the children have not established a very clear association between individual letters and their sounds.
2. Phonics is geared at children with learning difficulties – at not leaving any child behind. It is pointless teaching a version of Phonics that is essentially aimed at your fastest learners.
3. The goal of Phonics is NOT to cover material or achieve a certain standard. The goal of Phonics is to give children an additional tool to decode (read) the language. Phonics works because it follows a step by step approach that caters for slow and fast leaners. It also works because it involves constant and systematic repetition. If you remove this systematicity, skip steps, or not incorporate this repetition, Phonics has no meaning or benefit (Jolliffe, 2006).
So – start from scratch at one sound per day, 4 sounds per week, as review for some children and as new stuff for others. The children will catch on quickly and when you have fully taught and reviewed all the Year 1 skills, start on the Year 2 syllabus. Jolliffe, W. (2006). Phonics: A complete synthetic programme.

1 There is only one commonly used word in which ‘x’ is pronounced as ‘z’ – that is xylophone. 2 It is difficult to find fonts that match what you need to teach the children – especially for the letters y & t. The best is Century Gothic
with these exceptions: u = Arial y – Teen We have yet to find a clear q with a tail!

3 If even 1 or 2 of your children have not completed Year 1 Phonics, this MUST be taught thoroughly before Year 2 begins.
4 The KSSR Phonics syllabus is not exhaustive. Teachers may find they need to teach other sounds and word families such as kn or
the ow in cow, now, [eye] brow. 5 Weeks are indicative. They are not prescribed by KSSR. With larger commonly used Word Families, will have to be reviewed,
segmented and blended in more depth. 6 Less than 1% of the British English population use RP (Received Pronunciation). The alternative pronunciation given after the /
symbol, represents an alternative but Standard British English pronunciation. 7 This is the ow in row, sow, flow, not in cow, now.
8 This is the Word Family for new, few, stew, not blew or flew which don’t have a medial / j/ sound

10 This is NOT a word list that is prescribed by the KSSR. This document is a reference for teachers to help them interpret the phonemic sounds and identity word families.
Teachers need to keep in mind that larger word families are more difficult for children to learn than small ones, and that familiar words are more easily remembered (Metsala, Stavrinos & Walley, 2009). In short, keep your word families small and familiar!

Words eel, feel, heel, kneel, peel, deep, beep, sleep, sheep, keep, sweep, peep, meet, greet, street, feet, sweet, meat, eat, neat, cheat, treat, heat, seat, beat, bee, see, knee, glue, blue, clue, saw, draw, jaw, raw, paw, Joe, hoe, toe, doe
Materials WORD FAMILY GROUP CARDS 1 per group of 3-4 (= 10 sets)
Whole class / group / pair Groups of 3 (4 maximum)
Task objectives The child holding ALL the cards wins in EACH group wins.
PROCEDURE TEACHER TALK & MODEL
NOTE TO ELTC TRAINERS: This game can be played (write on board) FROM Year 1 Week 5 TO Year 2 Week 33 using any word family groups. You can add WORD FAMILY GROUP CARDS to the class’ sets each time you teach a new word family. Write these words on board:
see meet saw seat bee meat blue street feet jaw
1. Point to see. Underline ee. Then blend s + ee.
2. Which word has ee? (bee)
3. Draw a grid and add see and bee to it:
ee
bee see
4. Repeat these steps for ‘meet’ but this time go through the possibilities one by
one and add them to the grid. The grid should end up looking like this. NB:
Cards are divided by final (rime) word family sounds – not initial sounds.
ee eet aw eat
bee see
meet street feet
saw jaw
seat meat
Come to the front. What’s this? m eat m eat eat eat s aw s aw s aw aw aw Understand Groups of 4. 123 go! Ok?
© ELTC 2012 24 of 36
5. Tell children: Come to the front.
6. Place the cards face up. Take the first card from pile. Ask children what the
sound is (for the whole word. Eg, meat. Ask them to segment it. m + eat m +
eat. Put the ‘meat’ card to one side (face up), saying eat eat eat eat.
7. Continue this process until you start to have small piles of different word
families, and children are telling you where each new card should go.
8. Divide children into groups of 3 or 4. Give them each a stack of cards. They
must sort them.
9. Monitor very carefully. If children have placed a card in the wrong file, do not
tell them this is wrong. Pick another card in the same pile that is correct then
segment that. Then segment the incorrectly placed card. Same? Ok? Then
let the children tell you where it should be.
Questions & Rationale How do you choose which Word Families? How many Word Families are enough, and how many are too much? It is very difficult for children to differentiate between words from big word families, but they need to be able to do this in order to read. This is why it is so important to do segmenting with each word family you teach, as well as blending. If you start this differentiation work early (Year 1) and continue with it, children will develop this skill and this will improve their reading outcomes. You need to introduce small word families for children who are your weakest readers (Phonics is aimed at not leaving any child behind). Eventually, when this Word Family Groups task is easy for children, you need to work on Word Family Groups at the beginning of the word which are much harder for children, such as bet, bed, beg, bell, be, beck, Ben (Metsala, Stavrinos & Walley, 2009).

Materials WORD FAMILY GROUP CARDS 1 per group of 3-4 (= 10 sets) – used in previous task : 29A Word Family Groups
Whole class / group / pair Groups of 3 (4 maximum)
Task objectives The child holding ALL the cards wins in EACH group wins.
PROCEDURE TEACHER TALK & MODEL
NOTE TO ELTC TRAINERS: This game MUST follow 2.9AWord Family Groups. If children are unable to group words into final sound word families, this game will fail. This game can be played (write on board) FROM Year 1 Week 5 TO Year 2 Week 33 using any word family groups. You can add WORD FAMILY GROUP CARDS to the class’ sets each time you teach a new word family. 10. Ask children: Come to the front.
11. Model Word Family Snap with one group. Check for understanding.
12. Tell children: Groups of 4 (or 3). Model individually for groups that
haven’t understood, moving around the room
13. Monitor very carefully. If children have ‘snap! ed” when they shouldn’t,
ask them to say the previous card as a group, then segment it. Then ask
them to say the top card and segment it again – then compare the two
word families by going from one to the other to demonstrate the
difference to children. Don’t tell them the answer – the learning is in
having them sound out the word. If this is happening to all children too
frequently, you need to abandon the game and play the previous tasks
2.9AWord Family Groups again.
How to play Word Family Snap: 1. Give each group of 3 or 4 a set of cards
2. Deal all cards out equally to all group members, face down. (Children
don’t touch cards or look at them).
3. Children take turns taking 1 card from their pile and putting it in the
middle.
4. As they place the card (without first looking at it), they must say the word,
then segment it to identify the final Word Family (eg meat – m + eat, eat,
eat)
Come to the front. What’s this? m eat m eat eat eat s aw s aw s aw aw aw Understand Groups of 4. 123 go! Ok?
© ELTC 2012 28 of 36
5. If the card being placed has the same Word Family ending as the
previous card, any group member can slam their hand on the pile of
cards and yell ‘SNAP’
6. This team member then puts all the cards under their hand at the bottom
of their own pile of cards.
7. Continue placing cards in the middle (even if only one child still has cards

At this point, the children have learnt all the sounds: First week: ‘s’, ‘a’, ‘t’, ‘p’ Second week: ‘i’, ‘n’, ‘m’, ‘d’ Third week: ‘g’, ‘o’, ‘c’, ‘k’ Fourth week: ‘ck’, ‘e’, ‘u’, ‘r’
Words Say Hear Read Write
Materials
Phonics Hopscotch Mats,
Phonics Magic Box (containing 3 letters/1 syllable word strips)
Whole class / group / pair Whole class
Task objectives The children are able to hear, say, blend and segment monosyllabic words.
PROCEDURE TEACHER TALK & MODEL
NB: This version of Phonics Hopscotch is for Year 1, Week 5. You can modify the game to revise any sounds or word families. Week 5, Year 1: the children have already learnt these sounds
First week: ‘s’, ‘a’, ‘t’, ‘p’
Second week: ‘i’, ‘n’, ‘m’, ‘d’
Third week: ‘g’, ‘o’, ‘c’, ‘k’
Fourth week: ‘ck’, ‘e’, ‘u’, ‘r’
Week 5, Year 1: the children have already learnt these word families:
at in ap ig op am ad et en id og ock up ack ug ick
1. Preparation:
a. Wrap a box (tissue box, etc) nicely. Name the box Phonics
Magic Box.
b. Prepare the Phonics Hopscotch Mat. You can print out each
letter on an A4 size and paste it on the floor of the class. You
can laminate the letters so that they won’t tear when the children
step on them. Use chalk to make the lines. This kind of setting
cannot be recycled.
c. Variation: You can create a Phonics Hopscotch Mat using a
plastic mat. Lay down the Phonics Hopscotch Mat on the floor.
2. Ask the children to find a partner. Then, get them to line up in two rows:
A and B.
Find a partner
Two lines!
Go to box, pick one (show only
one finger), and read!
(Teacher pick up a strip of paper
and read aloud, e.g.: hat!
hhaaatttt!
You (point to a child in Row B),
hop on hh, aa, ttt, and say, hh,
aa, tt, hat!
Change!

3. Hold the Phonics Magic Box and ask a child from Row A to pick a strip
of paper and read the word aloud. E.g: Hat!
4. The partner of that child (from Row A) will hop on the correct letter while
making the sound. E.g: Hh, aa, tt!
5. If they got it correct, they can go at the end of the line.
6. Repeat the steps until all children have had their turn.
7. When all children have had their turn, swap roles. Now Row B will pick
and read the paper strips and Row A will hop.
8. You can change the Phonics Hopscotch Mat according to any sounds
that your children have learned.
What does this task do? By the fourth week, the children would have learnt 4 groups of letters (4 sounds per week). In this task, the CPs will be reviewing the sounds that they have learnt in that duration. There are several word families that can be built using these sounds. E.g: -at, -ap, -ig and -in. While teaching the word families, the teacher would have used a blending technique (joining sounds together to make a word) and a segmenting technique (breaking a whole word into smaller pieces). This task combines both of these techniques and reinforces the sounds learnt before. The fun element integrated in this task will help the beginner readers to feel at ease and therefore associating learning with play and to motivate them to practice more. It is a particularly effective task as it involves kinaesthetic learning.

2.9 Extra: Phonics Race12
Task Name & Number: 2.9 Phonics Race
Lexical Sets
Words Say Hear Read
Materials
5 x Magic Boxes per class (see below)
2-3 words per child in each magic box
(If you have 40 children in your class, there will be 8 children in each group, so you need 16 or 24 words in the box, so the children can play 2 or 3 times.
Whole class / group / pair Whole class
Task objectives The first group to be able to read and segment the word correctly is the winner.
PROCEDURE TEACHER TALK & MODEL
1. Preparation:
a. Cut paper strips of the word families. Put two word families in a Magic Box. Make sure that the
words in each Magic Box is sufficient for a group of children (The class will be divided into five
groups and each group will be using a Magic Box. Each child needs a piece of paper)
2. Get the children to line up in five rows. Put the Magic Box at the opposite end of the rows:
3. When you say “Start!” a child from each row will hop to their respective Magic Box. The child will pick up a
paper and read it aloud, e.g: Hat! and a child in his/her line will segment the word ‘hat’ into ‘h, a, t’. Then,
the child next to the Magic Box must run to the end of the line. The group that finished first is the winner.
4. You can repeat this game by swapping the Magic Boxes so that they can read words from different word
families.
5. Monitor carefully. If the child is stuck or has difficulty reading or segmenting the word, stand next to them
and blend the letters together by covering one with your finger, and sliding across the Word family then the
whole word. Do NOT tell the children how to say the word.
