Phase 5 Lesson Presentation: ay, ou, oy, ea
Introduce key Phase 5 graphemes with this engaging phonics presentation focusing on ay, ou, oy and ea. Designed to match the progression followed by many schools, this five-day PowerPoint helps children develop fluency when decoding, blending and applying these alternative spellings within words and sentences.
Throughout the week, pupils are supported to:
- Recognise and read words containing the graphemes ay, ou, oy and ea
- Practise spelling and segmenting words with new phoneme-grapheme correspondences
- Apply their knowledge by reading full sentences fluently
- Revisit tricky words and embed learning through daily retrieval and blending activities
Perfect for whole-class phonics teaching, interventions or small-group sessions, this Phase 5 presentation builds on Phase 4 skills and encourages confident, independent reading.
Teaching tip: Use the daily sentence reading sections to develop prosody and expression, helping children move towards more fluent, confident reading aloud.
