Description

LOWER CASE LETTERS – THE VOWELS – WORD FAMILIES – PLAY PERFORMANCE

FIRST WRITING – 45 pages: Five weeks of detailed lesson plans with mentoring comments and a Midsummer Pageant story are illustrated with examples of blackboards, bookwork, modelling, collages, and a letter of information to the parents.

The free supplement of poems and songs is an editable template which includes sheet music, footnotes and attributions. Customise it for your cultural setting, or use it to teach English as a foreign language.

This chapter shows how lower-case letters can be introduced efficiently, engaging the entire group of mixed abilities. An alphabet game establishes the sequence, and the distinct quality of consonants and vowels is explored. Word families help to create first sentences. The beloved hobby horse is completed, a little play performed, and two collages take up themes from the long Letter Story and a Nature Story. The first year ends on a high note because all the children, without exception, realise with satisfaction that they have learnt and achieved much.
