English topics with ideas and CCLs; year 1
Reading
WORDS
Pupils should be taught to:
apply phonic knowledge and skills as the route to decode words for all 40+ phonemes, including, where applicable, alternative sounds for graphemes (a letter or number of letters that represent one phoneme)
using flash card tasks have students make the sounds and then make the words using their knowledge of the graphemes
a fun activity would be to have the students be the phonemes and find each other to create words
for a CCL with music they students could create little beats with these sounds and perform them to the class
respond speedily with the correct sound to graphemes (letters or groups of letters)
this could be practiced in really fun ways, such as quick round games, for example two teams could line up in front of a teacher and a TA with the flash cards then the students would have a relay race of pronouncing the graphemes
read accurately by blending sounds in unfamiliar words containing GPCs that have been taught
A way that you could practice their sound blending could be them inventing new animals and giving them names with blends and then have a CCL with art where they make those animals with pompoms
this could then be a CSL with spoken English as they could describe their animals
read common exception words, noting unusual correspondences between spelling
this could be practiced using a detective game, the students could group the words together and decide what happened to them being as inventive as possible before being given the real etymology of why they are spelt different
read words containing taught GPCs and –s, –es, –ing, –ed, –er and –est endings and sound and where these occur in the word
read other words of more than one syllable that contain taught GPCs
read words with contractions [for example, I’m, I’ll, we’ll], and understand that the apostrophe represents the omitted letter(s)
read aloud accurately books that are consistent with their developing phonic knowledge and that do not require them to use other strategies to work out words
re-read these books to build up their fluency and confidence in word reading.
COMPREHENSION
points to learn;
develop pleasure in reading, motivation to read, vocabulary and understanding by:
listening to and discussing a wide range of poems, stories and non-fiction at a level beyond that at which they can read independently
checking that the text makes sense to them as they read and correcting
inaccurate reading
being encouraged to link what they read or hear read to their own experiences
predicting what might happen on the basis of what has been read so far
becoming very familiar with key stories, fairy stories and traditional tales, retelling them and considering their particular characteristics
recognising and joining in with predictable phrases
discussing the significance of the title and events
making inferences on the basis of what is being said and done
learning to appreciate rhymes and poems, and to recite some by heart
discussing word meanings, linking new meanings to those already known
drawing on what they already know or on background information and
vocabulary provided by the teacher
Writing
TRANSCRIBING
name letters of the alphabet
have good knowledge of spelling
this involves both an understanding of regular words and that of common irregular words
understand what suffixes and prefixes to use to express different meaning
this meaning 's' for plural 'ing', 'ed' etc
this also involves hand writing
COMPOSITION
this means students will learn how to compose a text, using drafting techniques and format models
VOCABULARY, GRAMMAR AND PUNCTUATION
this means semantic meaning of words, understanding spaces and full stops etc
Spoken language
SPEECH
listen and respond appropriately to adults and their peers
this can be easily assessed during any conversation with teacher and student or passive observation of group work
ask relevant questions to extend their understanding and knowledge
this links to any part of the lesson where students are being taught through diological teaching
use relevant strategies to build their vocabulary
articulate and justify answers, arguments and opinions
give well-structured descriptions, explanations and narratives for different purposes,including for expressing feelings
maintain attention and participate actively in collaborative conversations, staying on topic
use spoken language to develop understanding through speculating, hypothesising imagining and exploring ideas,
speak audibly and fluently with an increasing command of Standard English
participate in discussions, presentations, performances, role play, improvisations and debates
gain, maintain and monitor the interest of the listener(s)
consider and evaluate different viewpoints, attending to and building on the contributions of others
select and use appropriate registers for effective communication.
