Grade Level: Grade 3                                        Date: __________________________________

Duration: Approximately 45 minutes

Materials Needed:

·         Whiteboard and markers

·         Printed worksheets with words containing r-controlled vowels

·         Flashcards with words containing r-controlled vowels

·         Reading books with r-controlled vowel words

·         Computer or tablet with internet access (optional for interactive activities)

Procedure:

Engage: (5 minutes)

1.      Begin the lesson by asking the students if they know what vowels are and what makes a vowel sound.

2.      Discuss briefly with students the concept of r-controlled vowels, explaining that sometimes when a vowel is followed by the letter r, it changes its sound (e.g., ar, er, ir, or, ur).

Explore: (10 minutes) 3. Show flashcards with words containing r-controlled vowels to the class (e.g., car, her, bird, fork).

4.      Have students repeat the words after you and identify the vowel sound affected by the letter r.

5.      Encourage students to come up with other words they know that contain r-controlled vowels.

      Discuss the meanings of some of the new words generated during class discussion.

Explain: (10 minutes) 6. Write a few words with r-controlled vowels on the board, such as "car", "her", "bird", "fork", and "fur".

7.      Explain to the students that when a vowel is followed by the letter r, it changes its sound to a unique r-controlled vowel sound (e.g., /ɑː/ in "car", /ɜː/ in "her").

8.      Model how to sound out each word, emphasizing the r-controlled vowel sound.

Elaborate: (15 minutes) 9. Distribute printed worksheets with words containing r-controlled vowels to each student.

10. In pairs or small groups, have students read the words on the worksheet aloud to each other, focusing on the r-controlled vowel sounds.

11. Walk around the classroom to provide assistance and guidance as needed.

12. As an extension activity, provide reading books containing r-controlled vowel words for students to practice reading independently or with a partner.

Evaluate: (5 minutes) 13. To assess students' understanding, have them individually read a list of words containing r-controlled vowels.

14. Monitor their pronunciation and ability to identify the r-controlled vowel sounds accurately.

15. Provide feedback to students based on their performance and address any misconceptions or difficulties they may have encountered.

16. Complete additional activities on teacher’s blogsite.

Closure: 16. Recap the lesson by highlighting the different r-controlled vowel sounds.

17. Encourage students to continue practicing reading words with r-controlled vowels at home and in their daily reading.

Additional Notes:

·         Adapt the lesson as needed based on the students' level of proficiency and understanding.

·         Use a variety of teaching methods, such as visual aids, auditory exercises, and hands-on activities, to cater to different learning styles.

·         Encourage active participation and engagement throughout the lesson to enhance learning outcomes.
