DESCRIPTION
Phonological awareness is the general ability to hear and appreciate the sounds of language. It includes the ability to recognise and produce rhyme and to distinguish the onset (the initial sound) of a one- syllable word from its rime (the remainder of the word).TRANSCRIPT

UNIT 4: STORYTELLING IN SYNTHETIC PHONICS4.1 Identifying the sounds in words
The concept of Phonological awareness becomes relevant again in this unit.
![Page 3: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Phonological awareness is the general ability to hear and appreciate the sounds of language.
It includes the ability to recognise and produce rhyme and to distinguish the onset (the initial
sound) of a one-syllable word from its rime (the remainder of the word).
![Page 4: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
WAYS TO DEVELOP PHONOLOGICAL AWARNESS:
Start by having your child listen for the first sound in a word. Games like I-Spy are ideal for this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9d8_IDmNm0
![Page 5: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Next try listening for the end sounds, as the middle sound of the word is the hardest to hear.
Where is the sound?:Listening for the beginning, the middle and the end sounds.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vm3NvUxaY0k&list=PL36538036A609498E
Begin with simple three-letter words such as cat or hot. A good idea is to say a word and tap out the sounds. Three taps means three sounds. Say each sound as you tap.
![Page 6: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Rhyming games, poems and the Jolly Jingles also help tune the ears to the sounds in words.

Other games to play are:
Add a sound: what do I get if I add p to the beginning of
ink? Answer: pink. Other examples are m-ice, b-us... Take away a sound: what do I get if I take away p from
pink? Answer: ink. Other examples as above, and f-lap, s-lip, c-rib, d-rag, p-ant, m-end, s-top, b-end, s-t-rip... Sound attendance:http://

We can also use stories to develop phonological awareness:

Once a child can hear the sounds in words, and knows one way of writing each sound, they can write independently. Initially, the children will not spell accurately but their work can be read, for example, ‘I went hors riedin that wos fun’.
![Page 10: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Most children, by the end of their first year, should be able to write their own news and simple stories independently.
It will be exactly what they want to say as they are not restricted by writing only the words they have learned by heart.
Accurate spelling develops gradually from reading books, knowing the alternative vowel sounds and following a spelling scheme.

4.2. STORYTELLING IN SYNTHETIC PHONICS
STORYTELLING is the sharing of stories and events through words, sounds and visual images.
![Page 13: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
An effective storyteller captures the attention of listeners and accomplishes the goal of telling the story, which may be to entertain, convey information, teach an important life lesson, or persuade listeners to take action of some
kind.
![Page 14: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Storytelling techniques may incorporate
a combination of tone usage, animated sounds and gestures, and digital tools.
![Page 15: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Storytelling also contributes to the identification of sounds in words.
Storrytelling approach helps to transfer decontextualized language into a meaningful context for children.
![Page 16: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
All stories in Jolly Phonics are centered around everyday life situations that kids are familiar with: going for a walk, playing musical instruments, doing sports, eating, etc.
![Page 17: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
For example, instead of only identifying the letters "th" as a digraph, or two letters that equal two different sounds, we tell the children a story.
A family goes to the circus. One clown is a bit rude, and puts out the tip of his tongue making the sound th (voiced, as this). The other clown is very rude / he sticks out his tongue a long way, saying ththth (unvoiced, as in thin).
![Page 18: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
A story for the "ng" sound:Some children are watching wight
lifing on television. They laugh at the strange faces and noises. Then they pretend they are weight lifters, using brooms and pulling a face, and say ngngngng.
![Page 19: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
A story for the "c" and "k" sound:A family goes on holiday to Spain.
They go in airplane. I is lovely and hot in Spain. They spend the day on the beach and come back in the evening for dinner. After dinner, Spanish dancers perform in the hotel. The ladies wear bright coloured dresses and have castanets which make a cccccccc sound.
![Page 20: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Storytelling remains the best way to teach children to speak and write.

4.3. ADVANTAGES OF USING STORYTELLING IN THE CLASSROOMit can contribute to student academic
success and emotional well being. it is especially well-suited for student
exploration. storytelling is accessible to all ages and
abilities. no special equipment beyond the
imagination and the power of listening and speaking is needed to create artistic images.
![Page 22: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Storytelling can encourage students to explore their unique expressiveness and can heighten a student's ability to communicate thoughts and feelings in an articulate, lucid manner.
Support daily life skills: to remind children that their spoken words are powerful, that listening is important, and that clear communication between people is an art.
Gaining verbal skills: becoming verbally proficient can contribute to a student's ability to resolve interpersonal conflict non-violently.
![Page 23: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Imagination: both telling a story and listening to a well-told tale encourage students to use their imaginations.
Passing on wisdom: storytelling based on traditional folktales is a gentle way to guide young people toward constructive personal values by presenting imaginative situations in which the outcome of both wise and unwise actions and decisions can be seen.
![Page 24: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
UNIT 5: READING and WRITING with JOLLY PHONICS 5.1. Reading with Jolly Phonics ReadersThe JOLLY READERS are designed for
children who have learned to read and write with Jolly Phonics.
There are three series: “The Inky Mouse and friends”, General Fiction and Nonfiction.
In all three the vocabulary is carefully controlled, so children can apply their new reading skills.
![Page 25: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The Jolly Phonics Readers provide the best start for children just starting to read.
At every stage the words are within reach of the children as they use their letter sound knowledge and the tricky words already taught.
Each level of the readers builds on knowledge and skills previously learned so that they are able to practise blending until it is the automatic response to working out new words.
![Page 26: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Gradually the 42 letter sounds, main 19 alternative letter sounds and more frequently occuring tricky words are taught, which prepares the children to read more complex books.
![Page 27: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
JOLLY READERS
![Page 28: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
At every stage the words are within the reach of children as they use their letter sound knowledge and tricky words already taught.
Tricky words are shown at the back of each book. Light type is used as a guide for those few letters that should not be sounded out, such as the /b/ in lamb.
![Page 29: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Jolly Readers Level 1 Features words that are spelled regularly,
and can be sounded out with the 42 letter sounds first taught in Jolly Phonics.
8 Pages per book11 Tricky Words per book1 Sentence per page (approx)0 Alternative spellings per book
![Page 30: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Jolly Readers Level 2
In addition to the 42 letter sounds, Level 2 introduces /y/ used for the /ee/ sound at the end of words like ‘funny’.
12 pages per book20 Tricky Words per book2 sentences per page (approx.)0 alternative spellings per book
![Page 31: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Jolly Readers Level 3
Introduces the ‘magic e’ for spelling words with the long vowels, as in ‘make’, ‘like’, ‘bone’ and ‘tune’.
Introduces some alternative spellings of the digraphs.
16 Pages per book40 Tricky Words per book4 Sentences per page (approx)5 Alternative spellings per book
![Page 32: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Jolly Readers Level 4 The stories are much longer, and
introduce more tricky words.Covers all the Jolly Phonics alternative
vowel spellings that are used to make words like ‘day’, ‘seat’, ‘night’, ‘snow’, ‘few’, ‘girl’, ‘straw’, ‘boy’ and ‘scowl’.16 Pages per book61 Tricky Words per book4 Sentences per page (approx)18 Alternative spellings per book
![Page 33: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
If it is necessary to use non-decodable books then we recommend waiting until the children have reached a good level of fluency and decoding has become the automatic response to unknown words.
Ideally, this should be after the children are confidently reading the Jolly Phonics Green Level Readers, or equivalent decodables.

5.2. Teaching Writing to Young Children
5. 2.1. How To Teach Creative Writing To Young Children
Teaching children to write creatively is not something that you can complete at any one particular grade level.
It involves a series of planned situations and activities that gradually lead to independent writing.
![Page 37: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
As teachers our goal is to develop the writing skills of our students. This means that we must slowly direct each child to writing independently. To do so a teacher must model good writing, write with them collaboratively, guide their efforts and allow them to work on their own.
![Page 38: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
These stages are summed up under the following headings:
Modeled Writing Shared Writing Guided Writing Independent Writing
![Page 39: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
1. Modeled Writing
What is Modeled Writing?
MODELLED WRITINGhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9I7MM5gl

![Page 40: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Modeled writing is the first step in teaching writing to children. This is when the teacher is in front of the class doing all of the writing.
If your students struggle greatly with getting their ideas going, come back to this basic step and model your writing process for them. They need to see it being done.
Make your thoughts about the process known (be explicit) while you are teaching writing to children.
![Page 41: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
The key to modeled writing is to never assume your students are following you.
Tell them everything you are doing and why. It is not enough for them just to watch you.
As well, don't try to model so many things that the lesson goes on too long - you will lose their attention.
![Page 42: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
2. Shared Writing
SHARED WRITINGhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAQyTLDlvbkhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRZ9uZ4h0Ss
![Page 43: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
During shared writing, a teacher will scribe the words, but the students are now invited to contribute to the piece.
This is the type of writing would be appropriate for any primary writing.
Main charcateristics:Students contribute ideas while the teacher
writesLots of discussion, questions and answersThink alouds continue to be used
![Page 44: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

Guided writing is the third step in teaching writing to children.
In guided writing, teachers continually provide feedback, redirection and expansion of ideas.
Any area of writing can be addressed, but it works well to put similar needs together and address them at the same time.
![Page 46: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Main charcateristics:The step between teacher directed
and independent writingTeacher utilizes prompts and clues to
help develop ideas and organizationTeacher works with students either
small group or independentlyOral discussion of sentences before
writing

This is where the students effectively utilize written language for their own purposes or as assigned by the teacher.
These writing pieces can be anything, from creative stories and reports to writing journals or letters to friends and family.
![Page 49: Teacher: Dra. Jelena Bobkina Subject: READING AND WRITING SESSION 3](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022111905/5a4d1b707f8b9ab0599b521a/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Main charcateristics:Students use ideas from shared writing to
produce their own independent pieceReference to charts and other materials to
revise and edit compositionTeacher evaluation for growthThis part of teaching writing to children must
always include a time to share. It is critical to provide validation of your young author's process and growth as a writer. This provides them not only recognition, but an opportunity to receive feedback.
