Activities in this teaching pack include sets of cards to select different events and experiences to role-play to show what might happen in a school location and find and match pairs of cvc words that begin with the same initial sounds.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore events and experiences that might happen in a school and identify initial sounds of matching cvc words.

This lesson is part of a literacy scheme of work to get the children to read and respond to a story with a familiar setting and identify initial phonemes in different words based on When an Elephant Comes to School by Jan Ormerod. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
