Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

(Procedure for teaching letter sounds each week: (see K2 .1.1.1.5)
* Rapidly revise the letter sounds learnt so far.
* Revise blending one syllabic words as was done the previous week using pupils blending game.
* Teach learners to blend monosyllabic words to form two syllabic words. e.g. Ko-fi letter sound to form two syllabic words. E.g., gogo, te-do(tedo), to-lo(tolo), ba-ba (baba) A-ma.
*
Call to the front and give one- syllabic word each to 2 learners. Upon prompting, let them practise creating many mono-syllabic words by gradually moving towards each other sounding out the single syllabic words separately until they come together, put the two syllables together and sound them as one word. Call on many other learners to practise putting together two monosyllabic words to become one word. (Ko+ fi=kofi, a+fi =afi. Ma+ma =Mama).
*
Use the Pupils blending process as found in K2. 6.3.1.4
