This is the eighteenth lesson in this complete phonics course teaching children how to read and write! Focusing on the letter b, this lesson introduces the letter, the sound it makes and how to identify the initial, middle and end sound and letter of words. It is the eighteenth lesson of phase 2 phonics and includes all the information and activities you need to introduce this letter and the sound it makes.
In phase 2 of phonics, children meet the letters of the alphabet and the sounds that they make. They learn how to identify the initial, middle and end sound in CVC (consonant - vowel- consonant) words in preparation for learning how to segment and blend. From lesson 3, they start to decode words into the sounds they know in order to start reading as well as encode sounds into letters in order to begin writing. As they progrss through phase 2 of phonics, they will start writing simple sentences composed of phonetically decodable and high-frequency words.
These lessons are designed to teach children how to read and write by practising the skills of identifying, segmenting and blending. Each lesson includes all the information, games, videos and activities needed teach each phase 2 sound.
PLEASE CHECK THE NOTES SECTION ON EACH SLIDE FOR EXTRA TIPS AND IDEAS FOR TEACHING PHONICS PHASE 2.

A full lesson presentation teaching what the past simple tense is, why we use it and how to write in the past simple tense.
The past simple tense is used to talk about things that have already happened. It is used especially for describing things that we know when happened. All clauses (and so sentences) must have a verb. Verbs tell us the tense of a clause. We distinguish between regular and irregular verbs. Regular verbs are verbs which follow a rule to change to past simple (we add the suffix -ed to these words). Irregular verbs do not follow a rule to change to their past tense form.
This lesson includes:
β Complete PowerPoint presentation for the full lesson

Here is a PowerPoint presentation filled with interesting and engaging brainteasers, maths challenges, riddles and rebus puzzles suitable for children ages 6 - 12 years. Answer slides are also included.
Puzzles are great exercise for your brain! They help children build up their creative problem solving and critical thinking skills. In addition, if children are encouraged to explain how they got their answer, they can help them develop their reasoning skills also.
I love to have one of these puzzles on the board whilst children come into the classroom as a way of engaging them straight away. I then reveal the answer at the end of the lesson. Alternatively, I might finish the day with a puzzle on the board and then reveal the answer the next morning.
