Understanding Graphemes and Sounds

In this video tutorial, children are introduced to phonemes and graphemes, learning to read and sort words based on their sounds. The lesson includes a fun game where students identify whether a grapheme makes an 'e' or 'i' sound in different words. The tutorial also covers reading practice with known graphemes, identifying digraphs, and matching words to pictures. Additionally, students engage with nonsense words, naming fictional aliens, and practice reading sentences and spelling words. The session concludes with a spelling exercise, reinforcing the connection between reading and writing.
