Lesson Plan : Reading words with long A
Teacher Name: | Carson Aubin |
Grade: | Grade 1 |
Subject: | Language Arts |
Topic: | Reading words with long /a/ followed by a silent /e/. |
Content: | Literacy VCV |
Goals: | The student will be able to read words with a long /a/ followed by a consonant and a silent /e/. |
Objectives: | Given a set of words with different beginning sounds the student will be able to orally blend the long /a/ then the consonant to read the word. |
Materials: | long /a/ consonant silent /e/ words dry erase board |
Introduction: | Explain to students that we will be learning how to read some new words! A short story with a lot of long /a/ words should be read to the class. |
Development: | Talk about story and have students discover all of the long /a/ words in the story. Explain how the letter /a/ now has a new sound. Explain why the /a/ has the new sound when the word ends with a silent/e/. |
Practice: | Write 5 new long /a/ words on the board one at a time, allowing students to sound out words with the teacher. |
Accommodations: | Allow students that already know how to read long /a/ words to cmplete worksheet and then read independently. |
Checking For Understanding: | Students will complete a worksheet to check for comprehension of long /a/words. |
Closure: | Reread long /a/ story. Ask students to raise a silent hand whenever they hear a word with a long /a/. |
Evaluation: | As students begin to read unfamiliar material check to see if the student is applying how to read a long /a/ word followed by a consonant and a silent /e/. |
Teacher Reflections: | The greatest measure of success is to hear children reading new and unfamiliar words by applying what they have learned. If class is not reading words with long /a/ and silent /e/ and new lesson will have to be retaught. |
