  2. She places the Blue Box 2 with the lid underneath the box, just beneath the LMA on the right hand corner.
  3. Directress selects three-picture card, taking one card at a time - placing it on the mat in front of the child and naming it at the same time.
  4. The picture cards are arranged in a row, one beneath the other.
  5. Directress points to the picture card and ask the child to name it, for e.g. 'Club'.
  6. "What sound can you hear in Club?" (accentuates the individual sound that we wish the child to pick up).

Control Of Error

Directress directed.

Points Of Interest

If a child repeatedly builds a word incorrectly, the Directress should ask the child to name the object. The child may be mispronouncing the word.
Make sure the child is familiar with the pictures and that he is able to pronounce the words correctly. The child should not be given words that are not phonic at this stage.

Purpose

  • Practice building longer phonic words.
  • Extend practice with the Large Movable Alphabet.
  • Prepare for reading and writing longer words and blending consonant sounds.

Variation

Have a good collection of pictures boxes for the classroom to provide variety.
