SPECIFIC COMPETENCE: Phonemic awareness (awareness that language is made up of
words and single sounds)
MAIN ACTIVITY: within several periods, a pupil should be able to identify words with two
syllables
SPECIFIC ACTIVITY: Within a period of 40 minutes, a pupil should be able to identify
words with two syllables
Rules:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Every syllable has one vowel sound
The number of vowel sounds is equal to the number of syllables
Diphthongs are counted as one vowel
Silent vowels are not counted as vowels e.g. home
Procedures
-Count the vowels in the word
-Subtract any silent vowels like the silent ‘e’ at the end of a word e.g. Home,
come, gone
-Subtract one vowel from every diphthong – diphthongs only count as one vowel
sound e.g. Count, sound, mount, vibe, pine
-The number of vowel sounds left is the same as the number of syllables
Examples
- The word ‘came’ has 2 vowels, but the ‘e’ is silent, leaving one vowel sound and one
syllable
AKILI LP
- The word ‘outside’ has 4 vowels, but the ‘e’ is silent and the ‘ou’ is a diphthong which
counts as only one vowel sound, so this word has only two vowel sounds and
therefore two syllables
TEACHING AIDS: one syllable words, two syllable words, three syllable words

REFLECTION: I made efforts to apply interactive teaching and learning methods to make
pupils cooperate and learn effectively. Pupils were excited with the methods because they
allowed using their prior knowledge to develop the intended competence. I was amazed
that they were reluctant to go out during break time. However, I had some flaws in
classroom management techniques and I exceeded some few minutes of the next period
which belonged to a different subject.
EVALUATION: The clarification and explanation I gave enabled 38 pupils out of 45 to
rope jump. 5 pupils out of 45 were at the beginning level because they failed to
understand the explanations.
REMARKS: In the next lesson I will improve the way I give instructions and explain
concepts to pupils. I will make use of peer teaching techniques to help pupils who perform
at beginner level. I will observe classroom and time management skills in order to spend
time wisely
