Pupils talk about clothes on a cold night:
Hi, Candy Kitten. It is a cold night.
I am wearing a cap and a coat.
I am wearing a scarf and a pair of socks.
The phoneme /k/ is represented by both 'c' and 'k':
'c' words: cat, cup, car, cut
'k' words: key, kite, king, kid
Action: imagine locking a door with a key. Say the 'k' sound.
Pupils read about clothes at the mall:
Vinod goes to the mall with his father to buy a new shirt.
Clothes at the mall: a pinafore, a pair of baju kurung, a shirt,
a pair of trousers, a pair of shoes, a necktie, belts,
a pair of socks.
Pupils write sentences using 'a' or 'a pair of':
a pinafore
a pair of shoes
a shirt
a pair of socks
a necktie
a pair of trousers
Pupils chant about clothes:
Wear! Wear! Wear! What do you wear?
Trousers! Trousers! Trousers! Shoes! Shoes! Shoes!
A dress! A dress! A dress! A shirt! A shirt! A shirt!
We say 'a pair of' for things that come in twos: shoes, socks, trousers, baju kurung. We say 'a' for single items: shirt, pinafore, necktie.
Pupils talk about objects with 'ck' and 'e' sounds:
clock (ck)
eggs (e)
The grapheme 'ck' also represents /k/.
Actions and example words for /k/ (ck) and /e/:
| 'ck' /k/ | Imagine driving a truck. Say 'ck' in truck. | |
| 'e' /e/ | Imagine cracking an egg. Say 'e' in egg. | |
| Blend words | duck, rock, pet, ten, den | |
Pupils read 5 short sentences:
My mother fries eggs for dinner.
The padlock is on the table.
The rock is big and heavy.
Melida likes to play with her pet cat.
The pen is under the chair.
Pupils complete sentences using: padlock, ten, eggs, stick, duck
Father buys a ____ for the gate. (padlock)
She has 10 ____. (pencils)
Mother uses four ____ to bake the cake. (eggs)
Put that hockey ____ near the door. (stick)
My friend feeds her pet ____ every morning. (duck)
Two groups recite different rhymes:
Group A: The clock at home, tells the time, the clock at home, can even chime.
Group B: There's a crack on the egg, let's make a cake, with the egg.
The grapheme 'ck' makes the /k/ sound, like in 'duck', 'rock', and 'clock'. The grapheme 'e' makes the /e/ sound, like in 'egg', 'pet', and 'ten'.
π Kosa Kata
The phoneme /k/ can be written three ways in English: 'c' (cat), 'k' (kite), and 'ck' (duck). 'ck' usually comes at the end of a short word right after a vowel, like in 'clock', 'rock', and 'duck'.
