Phase 5 Lesson Presentation: ir, ie, ue, u
Teach new Phase 5 graphemes with this structured phonics presentation focusing on ir, ie, ue and u. Aligned with the progression used in many schools, this five-day PowerPoint develops children’s ability to recognise, decode and apply alternative spellings with growing fluency and accuracy.
Throughout the week, pupils are supported to:
- Identify and read words containing the graphemes ir, ie, ue and u
- Practise spelling and segmenting new words using familiar sounds
- Apply learning through full sentence reading and writing activities
- Revisit and practise previously taught tricky words
Perfect for whole-class phonics lessons, interventions or independent group work, this Phase 5 presentation builds confidence in blending, segmenting and word application ready for more advanced reading.
Teaching tip: Encourage children to spot alternative pronunciations during reading sessions to deepen understanding of how one grapheme can represent more than one sound.
