In our
phonics advanced session, children had learned about “BR” blending sound
Teacher
guided the children to learn a different word of BRs, such like breakfast, branch,
broccoli, brown, brother, bread, bricks and so on.
Besides
learning 10 BR words, they also have to think out
the others BR words that they
know.
For example,
the children told me the words like brain, bring or break
In story
reading and reading session, the teacher gave the children “titanic” article.
Some of the
children knew that what is titanic, especially, Ming Hong.
He was very
interested with titanic and he even tells me that he knows how to draw the Titanic
ship, how many people died in that disaster and he also explained to their classmate
that titanic’s story.
In the game
session, the teacher split them into 2 group where they have to write the new
vocabulary they learned on the whiteboard.
Through this activity, we want to
enhance their writing speed and also their listening skills.
For me, it
is no point to give children spelling if they can’t even recognize the words.
Spelling it can be good to make them learn new
words, but if everything comes to memorizing, the things that they learn won’t
be long lasting, especially, for those who are new learners.
