Explicit Phonics Lesson
-all, -alk
Day 1
Objective: Sound and blend words using the –all and
–alk spellings .
Review
Can you tell me the letter name of the
vowels? (a, e, i, o, u, and
sometimes y) We have worked with the short ă sound. What is
the short sound of a? / ă/ as in apple. (Have
letter Aa visible) What is the hand sign that we have
used for /ă/? Wait for a response. Pretend you are holding an apple in your hand with me and
say the sound of short ă.
Today we are going to learn a new sound for the letter a. (Have the Broken Shovel card visible.) The spelling pattern we will be looking for is a followed by –ll or -lk. The new sound
of a in this spelling is /ô/ as in all.
When you break something you might say /ô/. (A hand signal that might be
used to make the learning more kinesthetic could be: two fists side by side,
then rotate the wrists, the right clockwise and the left counter clockwise, as
if a stick that was being held was broken.)
What is the sound of a when it is followed by –ll or –lk? /ô/
What is the hand sign for that sound? (Demonstrate)
What is the Broken Shovel sound? /ô/
What is the key word that we are going to use to remember the /ô/ sound? all
PA (oral)
Listen to
these words and see if you can hear the /ô/sound or not. If you hear the /ô/
sound in the word, I want you to give me a thumbs up.
If you don’t hear /ô/ in the word, give me a
thumbs down. So if I say tall, /t/ /ô//l/,
you would give me a thumbs up because /ô/ is in
the word tall. If I say tell, /t/ /ĕ/ /l/, you would give me a
thumbs down because you do not hear /ô/ in the word tell.

Decoding
Using two differently colored markers,
write the words on the board one phoneme at a time. As you write, say “sound”
and have the students give the sound for the spelling you have just written.
When the word is complete, go back and have them give you the sounds again on
cue. Then have them blend the sounds into a word as you use your finger to
underline the word. At the end of each row go back and re-read the row before
going on to the next row. When all the words have been decoded, take time to
talk about the meanings of any words that might be unknown.
talk call small stalk
mall chalk ball walk
fall hall wall tall
Once all the words are on the board,
use the “Buddy Up” strategy and give clues.
The buddies are to find the word you gave the clue for, and raise their
hand. As they give the answer, you circle the answer. Sometimes more than one
clue may be necessary. If the first clue doesn’t produce the answer, the next
clue might be the row that the target word is on.
Some clues might be:
1. a place to shop mall
2. antonym short tall
3. the stem of a
corn plant stalk
4. synonym for
tiny small
5. a way to
communicate talk
(or call)
6. an object that
is the shape of a sphere ball
7. a way to move
from one place to another walk
8. something used
to write on a board chalk
9. vertical
support for a roof wall
10. a long narrow
room hall
11. I need to make
a phone ____. call
When there is only one word left, have
the buddies read the last word. Each buddy then uses the word in a sentence,
telling their buddy. Some of the sentences can be shared with the whole class.
In this procedure not only are the
words being read and re-read, but the meanings of the words (or words in the
clues) are being studied. Don’t
neglect stressing the vocabulary factor.
