d. Key Ideas
Phonics involves the study of the relationships between the letter symbols (graphemes) of a
written language and the sounds (phonemes) they represent. Phonics is used as an aid to
decoding words. It helps pupils gain independence and self-reliance in reading but this is only one
aspect of the reading process.
Auditory discrimination which is the ability to distinguish between sounds is essential for the
acquisition of spoken language and for learning to read. Visual discrimination is the ability to detect
similarities and differences in symbols. In learning to read, children need to be able to make fine

discrimination. Transfer of learning is great if the written symbols that children are working with are
similar to those that they will meet in reading.

Fixing Skills
The pupils will be divided into four groups to perform an activity.
1. Each group has to decorate the given activity paper to them by using beads, strings, colored paper and
monggo seeds (mosaic) according to their assigned art material. Each group must have their own
respective leader.
2. The teacher will start to distribute the work in each group. The leader in each group will come to receive
their given task.
3. In each group, they will need to help each other to easily finish their work. The group who will finish early
and will have a good and clean work will get 5 stars and will have a chance to fly their airplane.
4. There are corresponding points in every spot where their airplanes will reach and land. The higher their
airplanes will reach, the higher their points will be.

5. If they are finished, the group must first identify the object/ animal that they decorated. Each pupil who can
answer correct will fly their airplane to get points and the group who will get the most score will get stars and
rewards like balloons and sweets as well.
6. The teacher can easily manage the class by telling the children that anyone who will make a noise in each
group will lose one star.
