Teacher Noor Aziatul Akma at SK Kuala Tembeling prepared a simple set of phonic words and letter cards for the pupils to practice segmenting and blending the sounds p a t s .
Everyone got one card, and every card had a word or a letter from the p a t s range. Everyone practised sounding their letter or segmenting their word, and teacher Akma also asked the students to say the segmented sounds silently. The silent segmenting really forced the students to make the correct mouth shapes for the sound - and it worked very well.
Instead of re-shuffling the sound cards, the pupils left their cards on the desk and ran around musical chairs-style while teacher Akma played music on her phone; when the music stopped, the pupils would stop running and practise with the word card at the new desk.
