Ten Simple Phonics Activities Requiring Little Preparation
Introduction
Getting students to discover and practice the connections between letters and the
sounds they represent should be an important part of any English class routine.
The following activities can be adjusted to meet different levels and adapted to fit
into any timeframe. Please note that not every activity you do in class has to be
extremely challenging. Simple ideas that everybody is able to accomplish can work
wonders with student confidence which, in turn, can increase motivation.
The following are ten activities that can assist you in practicing phonics at any point
in your lesson:
1. Letters on the Board
At first, the teacher writes some letters on the board. The teacher reads out a word,
one at a time, and asks the students to try and spell each word using only the
letters on the board. It is always a good idea to stop after the first word in order to
write the correct spelling on the board. This can then be used as a reference point
for the students for successive words. After reading out five to ten words, go
through the spellings of each word. Also, limit the number of vowel sounds you
practice as the variety of sounds they represent can be really challenging for
students, especially beginners.
2. Speed Reading
Write a number of words on the board. If necessary, go over the pronunciation of
each word. Then read through a list of the same words at a good speed leaving out
only one of the words. The students should be listening to you read the list of
words while following along on the board. After you are finished, they tell you which
word (words) you didn’t read out. This activity can be targeted for a higher level by
adjusting the vocabulary used, the speed you read, the number of words you leave
off, or by doing additional tasks (e.g., like telling you which word you read wasn’t on
the board).
3. Battleship Phonics
This is based on the popular game Battleship. The teacher would draw a grid on
the board with initial sounds written across the top, and medial and final sounds
written together down the left side of the grid. You would let the students know that
you have chosen a few squares as ‘special squares’ that they should seek out.
They find these squares by volunteering to say a whole word made up of a letter at
the top and the side of the grid. The intersection of this row and column highlights a
particular square. The object is for the students to find all your designated special
locations.
4. Phonics Bingo
Write a good number of sounds on the board, e.g., pha, ma, la, ga. The students
would choose a designated number of sounds you wrote and write them on an
available space for writing. You would then play this like bingo and read out the
sounds one by one. The students can get bingo when they have three of their
sounds chosen or all of their sounds chosen. It is a good idea to go over all of the
sounds written on the board beforehand to help ease comprehension.
5. Criss-cross Phonics
All the students stand up. To begin, show a word or a picture. The first student to
raise their hand gets called upon and if they can correctly say the first (or last)
sound of that word they can sit down and choose if the people in their row,
horizontally or vertically, can also sit down. Gradually, there are fewer and
fewer students standing. When you no longer have rows to choose from, only
individual students would sit. Words and images could also be written/drawn on the
blackboard if the teacher had no time to prepare cards.
6. Missing Sound
Draw or show an image on the blackboard. Beside the image, write all but one of
the sounds. For example, there is a picture of a dog on the board, you write ‘og’
beside it and the students have to provide you with the missing sound, not the
letter. This can be made into a group contest or a simple whole-class exercise
where you would give the class time to think of the answer and get everyone to say
the answer at the same time.
7. Two Sounds
Good to practice sound distinction. Have two words on the board representing the
two different sounds you would like to practice, e.g., MEN, MAN. You would then
show the students pictures and get them to put those words under the appropriate
column. For example, you show a picture of a pen, the students should write ‘pen’
under the MEN column. (If you are dealing with beginners, they could just mark
their choice with an ‘X’ under the column instead of asking them to write out the
words. You would, however, have to give numbers before every word to help
everybody keep track of choices.)
8. Beginning/Middle/End
Students copy down the chart you provided on the board which is divided into three
sections. You can label the three sections, ‘beginning’, ‘middle’ and ‘end’ in English
or the native language of your students. You would focus on a specific sound and
read out words containing that sound. The students would have to decide if that
sound was found in the beginning, middle or end of the word by writing the sound
in that appropriate column. This is a good listening activity with some implications
for positive phonics reinforcement.
9. Ball and Cap Game
The students pass around a hat and a ball. When the music stops, the student with
the hat must take out a piece of paper with a letter or letters written on it then read
out its sound, not the letter name. The student with the ball must guess the letter(s).
In lieu of music, the teacher can simply have his back turned and call out “stop”.
10. Pen and Eraser
Students have a pen and an eraser in front of them. You have two sounds you
would like to practice, e.g., ‘f’ and ‘v’ sounds, and designate one sound for the pen
and one sound for the eraser. When you say a word beginning with one of those
sounds, the students should pick up the appropriate object (for upper levels, the
sound can be in any part of the word not just the beginning). If you say a word not
incorporating one of the sounds, the students should make a big X with their arms.
This can evolve into a pair contest with one pen and one eraser for every two
students. The students would aim to be the quickest to pick up the object after you
read out a word.
Concluding Remarks
Matching sounds to letters and letters to sounds can be quite a tricky and daunting
task when students are learning English. Activities such as these are simple to
initiate, easily adaptable, and are good ways to practice and enforce English
phonics.
