The document outlines an ASSURE model lesson plan for a kindergarten phonics lesson focusing on phonemic awareness, phonics, and word recognition. The lesson will use Kidspiration, PowerPoint, and word documents to teach blending sounds, rhyming words, and decoding skills through visual, auditory, and kinesthetic activities on computers. The teacher will assess students' understanding of spoken words, syllables, sounds, phonics patterns, and letter-sound correspondence through the computer activities and group work.
2. LACC.K.RF.2.2 Demonstrate understanding of
spoken words, syllables, and sounds
(phonemes).
LACC.K.RF.3.3 Know and apply grade-level
phonics and word analysis skills in decoding
words.
LA.K.1.4.1 The student will recognize and
recall the one to one correspondence
between most letters and sounds
3. General Characteristics
Kindergarten Students
Male and Female
Age: 4-6 (maybe older)
Class Size: about 18
Diverse in race and ethnicity
Disabilities
Learning or Physical Disability
These disabilities could result in extra time or help
4. Students may not know the software
Kidspiration
Students may not know how to use
PowerPoint
Students should know some background
information about computers
Students should know how to pronounce
letters and blend sounds
5. The students show variety with kinesthetic,
auditory, and visual learning styles
Some students are more understanding of
certain learning styles
Most students like to work within groups
Most students like to work with “hands on”
activities
6. Students have previously worked together in
groups
Students have done some activities on the
computer
Students have done worksheets and games to
promote learning
7. 1.Demonstrate understanding of spoken words,
syllables, and sounds (phonemes). Students will be
able to recognize rhyming words.
2. Know and apply grade-level phonics and word
analysis skills in decoding words. Students will be
associating and grouping words together.
3. The student will recognize and recall the one to
one correspondence between most letters and
sounds. Students will be working on blending
sounds.
8. Methods
The teacher will be using all three learning styles
to connect and engage with every student.
Specifically, students will be hearing a lecture,
reading words, and working on computer
activities to check for comprehension.
9. Media
The teacher will use word processing documents
to check for comprehension of ending sounds and
blending
The teacher will use Kidspiration to also check
for comprehension
The teacher will use PowerPoint to engage
students in an educational game that is
appropriate for the lesson
10. Materials
Students will be using a computer to complete
worksheets, games, and activities.
Students will be using Microsoft Word to
complete worksheets
Students will be using Kidspiration to complete
activities
11. Preview Materials
The teacher will look through the worksheets and
ensure that the blending sounds are appropriate
for the lesson
The teacher will present a personal Kidspiration
to give an example of what is expected for the
activity.
12. Prepare Materials
The teacher will use their personal computer and
projector to display an example of the blending
worksheets and Kidspiration activity
The teacher will help if it is really needed, but
would prefer for students to work on it
themselves or ask a peer
The teacher will make sure that the activities for
the lesson are pulled up on the computers to
make sure there is not confusion
13. Prepare the environment
Students will be sitting at assigned computers to
limit talking, but also next to students that could
help each other if needed
Students will be sitting all together so they can
share their Kidspiration Quest if time permits
14. Students will be given 20 minutes to explore
the Kispiration software with a quest to see
some features that are frequently used
Prior to the lesson on the computers, a
seating chart will be created to keep talking
to a minimum and pair stronger students
with weaker students.
Students will be learning about this topic
prior to this lesson
15. Provide the Learning Experience
The teacher will explain the objectives of the
lesson
The teacher will go through step by step how to
complete the activities
The students have a time limit of 50 minutes on
the computer
16. Students are able to ask each other for help
Students will be on computers doing hands
on activities that address all three learning
styles so it appeals to all
Students will be able to share some of their
personal work if time permits
17. Objective 1: Demonstrate understanding of
spoken words, syllables, and sounds
(phonemes). Students will be able to
differentiate between ending sounds through
spoken language
Evaluation 1: Most students were able to see
the similarities between words that rhyme
18. Objective 2: Know and apply grade-level
phonics and word analysis skills in decoding
words. Students will be associating and
grouping words together.
Evaluation 2: Students were able to see that
using a specific ending and adding a different
letter or sound to the beginning may create a
different word.
19. Objective 3: The student will recognize and
recall the one to one correspondence between
most letters and sounds. Students will be
working on blending sounds.
Evaluation 3:Students recognized that
different letters placed together make
different sounds
