Lesson Plan for Nursery 1 - Phonics - Group 2 Consonant/vowel/consonant Words

### Lesson Plan: Phonics - Group 2 Consonant/Vowel/Consonant Words **Grade Level**: Nursery 1 **Age Group**: 3-4 years **Duration**: 30 minutes **Topic**: Group 2 Consonant/Vowel/Consonant Words --- #### Objectives: 1. Students will be able to recognize and pronounce consonant/vowel/consonant (CVC) words. 2. Students will be able to identify the sounds associated with Group 2 letters (c, k, e, h, r, m, d). 3. Students will practice blending sounds to form simple words. --- #### Materials: - Flashcards with Group 2 letters (c, k, e, h, r, m, d) - Picture cards corresponding to CVC words using these letters (e.g., cat, hen, red, etc.) - Whiteboard and markers - Letter blocks or magnetic letters - Phonics songs or videos about CVC words - Worksheets with CVC words and corresponding pictures --- #### Lesson Steps: 1. **Introduction (5 minutes)**: - Begin with a phonics song or video focusing on CVC words to get the students engaged. - Explain that today they will be learning about words that are made up of three sounds: a consonant, a vowel, and another consonant. 2. **Letter Review (5 minutes)**: - Show flashcards one by one with the Group 2 consonant letters (c, k, h, r, m, d) and the vowel letter (e). - Pronounce each letter, and have the students repeat after you. - Use gestures or actions to make the sounds memorable (e.g., hopping for 'h'). 3. **Blending Sounds (10 minutes)**: - Demonstrate how to blend sounds to form CVC words. Start with simple words like "cat," "hen," "red," etc. - Write a CVC word on the whiteboard, breaking it into individual sounds (e.g., c-a-t). - Pronounce each sound slowly, then blend them together to say the word. - Call on students to come up and try blending a new word, offering guidance as needed. 4. **Interactive Activity (5 minutes)**: - Distribute letter blocks or magnetic letters to the students. - Call out a CVC word and ask the students to form the word using their letters. - Walk around, offering help and encouragement. 5. **Picture Matching (5 minutes)**: - Give each student a worksheet with pictures and corresponding blank spaces for words. - Have the students match the pictures to the correct CVC words by writing the words. - Review the answers together as a class. 6. **Closing (5 minutes)**: - Recap the lesson by having students say some of the words they learned today. - Sing the phonics song/video again to reinforce the day's learning. --- #### Assessment: - Observe students during activities to see if they can correctly blend sounds and identify words. - Review the worksheets to ensure they can match pictures with the correct CVC words. - Oral questioning at the end to check for understanding. --- #### Differentiation: - **For advanced learners**: Provide more challenging CVC words or ask them to think of sentences using the words. - **For struggling learners**: Offer more one-on-one support and use visual aids to reinforce learning. --- *End the lesson by praising the students and letting them know how proud you are of their efforts in learning new words!*
