Sample one week lesson plans from LCP’s Phonics Planning 3rd Edition
Day-by-Day Lesson Plans based on Letters and Sounds
Please note: This is just the planning and does not come with the lesson’s resources.
What is LCP Phonics Planning? It is not a phonics teaching scheme and I have assumed that your school already has such a scheme in place, for example, LCP Phonics.
There are many other commercially produced schemes available. LCP Phonics Planning is a planning tool for teachers who are teaching phonics using the Letters and
Sounds document from the DfE. It is a guide and should be used with flexibility and at a pace which is appropriate to each group or class.
Objectives and criteria for success:
Teach new graphemes for reading (p134) ay ou ie.
Teach the rules for spelling words containing these digraphs. (Appendix 6).
Teach reading the tricky word people (p140) and decodable words house, about (p141).
Teach reading and spelling compound words. (Appendix 7).
Practise reading and spelling high frequency words (p141/p148).

The activity sheets are structured around the narrative, non-fiction and poetry blocks of the new literacy Framework. The content comes from common Year 4 fiction and non-fiction themes. The activities are designed to support work done across the curriculum as well as in literacy teaching.
The activities follow the main literacy priorities in Year 4 and are designed to be used flexibly. They are intended to be used with an adult: it would be pointless for the child to do them alone. Much of the learning is in the interaction.
Each activity sheet has a clear focus and advice to the adult as well as the child. There are four main types:
• Understanding and engaging with texts;
• Shaping texts;
• Sentence structure and punctuation;
• Spelling.
Each unit contains a mixture of the activity types.
