Rafe Esquith: Five Tips to Help Children Develop Their Natural Gifts
Teachers.Net Lesson Plans#46. More Kindergarten PhonicsReading/Writing, level: Pre-SchoolPosted by Sheryl Cooke (scooke@4kz.com.au). Australia Materials Required: cardboard, glue, bric-a-brac items Concepts Taught: phonics
The kindergarten/pre-school child is still very much focused on themselves and their identity. I used this to great advantage a couple of years ago with the initial sounds of each child's name. We cut the letter out of cardboard grocery boxes. The children had to select objects that started with the same sound as their name to glue onto their initial sound. Eg. Catherine selected cotton buds, Timothy chose tinsel etc. It was amazing how quickly these 4-5 year olds associated the letter shapes with the initial sound. They also looked great hanging all around the room. | ||||||||
