This Teacher Planner for Year 1 focuses on additional graphemes and alternative sounds. Teachers who have used Letters and Sounds will be familiar with the format of the daily and weekly lesson plans, in accordance with the progression. A calendar is provided in the front to plan out lessons for the four terms. Resources are presented on the right-hand page throughout the planner and these link directly to the lesson plan.
The Planner begins with Phase 5, covering a further 19 graphemes that mainly cover vowel sounds and alternative spellings of these such as the spilt digraph. A significant amount of teaching is dedicated to sound families where the focus is on a common phoneme and the various ways that phoneme can be spelt.
Decodable readers are introduced closely are new graphemes or sound families are introduced. These are presented in the weekly lesson plans.
There continues to be a strong emphasis on Common Exception Words within the program, and these are ordered according to the progression across alternative spellings and sound families. Furthermore, homophones are introduced where two words can sound the same but have different spellings, and these examples are used to help reinforce the learning of different graphemes for the common phoneme.
Additional lessons are provided in two sections: phonics booster and revision. The phonics booster sessions are specifically designed for preparing children for the phonics screening check and giving them the ‘boost’ that they may need. Revision sessions at the end of the Planner to provide various revision sessions around sound families and alternative spellings of phonemes. Assessments are also included throughout.
