Phase 4 Lesson Presentation: Longer Words
Support early reading development with this engaging Phase 4 phonics presentation focusing on longer words. Aligned with the updated 2021 Letters and Sounds progression used in many schools, this resource helps children build fluency and confidence as they move beyond simple CVC words.
Covering five days of progressive learning, this presentation revisits key Phase 3 sounds while introducing pupils to longer words and new tricky words in context.
Each day includes opportunities for pupils to:
- Revisit and recognise common digraphs and trigraphs
- Blend and read longer words with confidence
- Practise tricky words such as there, when, what, and one
- Read full sentences with fluency
- Apply learning through spelling and writing tasks
Perfect for whole-class teaching on the whiteboard, this PowerPoint is ideal for daily phonics sessions, providing clear structure and repetition to support memory and application.
Teaching tip: Encourage pupils to act out phoneme spotting with actions (like hands on heads) to add movement and engagement to the session.
