Lesson One: ‘er’ as in river


‘er’ as in river
cut and glue into your scrap book ----------------------------- ----------------------------- ----------------------------- --------cut
Note to tutor:
1. Pointing to the caption under the river say to your child (using letter names) ‘e’ (ee), and ‘r’, (are) together say (using the sound) ‘er’ as in river.
2. Pointing to the word river, sound it out, riv-er, and then blend it into the word river.
3. Ask your child to point to each word in the caption under the picture of the river as he/she reads, ‘er’ as in river.

1. Turn to page 3. Sound out, and then read the words in the river to your tutor. As you read each word draw a fish around it.
2. Discuss the meaning of each word with your tutor.
Note to tutor: The following steps apply to all words that your child cannot read but can sound out, because it is a ‘sounding’ word. (Some words cannot be sounded out – these are called ‘look-say’ words.)

If your child cannot easily read a word encourage him/her to sound it out, listening for the sounds and blending them into a word. Patiently give your child time. Listen to see if he/she has the correct sounds, so they can be blended into the correct word. If needed, give help by sounding out the word with your child, over and over, until he/she can blend the sounds into the correct word. Give praise for effort.

3. Glue the title page ‘My Phonic Book Four’ onto the first page of your scrap book.
4. Glue page 3 and the ‘er’ as in river picture into your scrap book.
5. Find the ‘er’ as in river flash card and start a pile of sounds you are going to practise. If there are any sound flash cards from Phonic Pack Three that you still need to practise you could add the ‘er’ as in river flash card to that pile and practise them all as often as you can.

1. After you have read the story “A Boy Called Roy”, draw a picture of Roy in the box below. You have to choose to draw him dressed in his cowboy suit or his pirate suit. He may be on his toy rocking horse or playing somewhere else.

3. Turn to page 24. Think up your story one sentence at a time and say each sentence to your tutor before you write it.

Note to tutor: Your child has had lots of practise at writing a sentence, with a capital and a full stop. Now encourage her/him to write a story with at least two sentences so she/he is getting practise at :
• stringing more than one sentence together in a logical sequence.
• putting thoughts into order.
• remembering correct punctuation (capital letters and fullstops).

It is important for your child to think up and say the sentences to you. This is to help him/her get his/her thoughts together so the sentences make sense and the story flows in correct sequence. This is not easy for some children, so be patient.
