Description

ai ay powerpoint – A direct instruction phonic lesson that covers eight grapheme alternatives for the sound /ai/. Includes many activities and hands on tasks in an engaging lesson format. 227 slides.

ai ay powerpoint includes;

• grapheme alternatives; ai, ay, a-e, a, ea, ei, ey and eigh
• 227 slides total (includes cover pages)
• tune in slides (e.g. where do you hear the /ai/ sound)
• mouth articulation
• air writing suggestion
• word level reading
• sentence level reading
• phonic dictation
• editing
• word sorting
• word building
• check for understanding
• contents page with clickable links (so you do not have to go through all the slides)
• home button on each slide so that you can go back to the main menu
• teacher information slides (e.g. how to use the powerpoint and how to run the activities)

Please use the word sorting and building tasks outside of the slide show mode. I have included a question mark after each of those tasks so that the students cannot see the answers from the drop down menu. Students need to tap the word (or letter) and then drag it into place. Please use this lesson prior to teaching as some words or arrows will appear when you press the space, enter or mouse button. It is very simple to use.

You may wish to teach the students two graphemes to begin with (over one week) and then go back to the slide show lesson at a later time to build more graphemes into their knowledge. Alternatively, you could add more graphemes in the following week. What you choose to cover depends on the abilities and needs of your students.

Enjoy!
