Suitable for first time teaching and catch-up.

Details:

The Snappy Lesson is a teaching structure unique to Sound Discovery. It was designed to incorporate all the phonic skills shown by research to be essential for acquiring literacy.

With clear learning objectives and instructions, each Snappy Lesson Plan supports spelling and writing as well as reading at sound, word and sentence levels.

Teachers and Teaching Assistants can use these plans for whole class teaching, for small group teaching and for one-to-one tuition.

Classic Snappy Lesson� plans use the same lesson structure as the Big Books of Snappy Lesson plans for Steps 1 and 2 of the programme. The Classic Snappy Lesson� plans teach one spelling pattern at a time.

Once all the spelling alternatives for each sound have been taught, further practice can be given using column sort activities as detailed in the Big Book of Snappy Lesson� Plans at Step 3B.
