Introduce Consonant Clusters ◦ Explain the pronunciation of the consonant clusters: ◦ ch /tʃ/ (e.g., chair, catch) ◦ ph /f/ (e.g., photo, phone) ◦ sh /ʃ/ (e.g., shop, wash) ◦ th /θ/ (e.g., think, three) and /ð/ (e.g., this, that) ◦ wh /w/ (e.g., what, where) or /h/ (e.g., who, whom) 2. Listen & Repeat ◦ Play the recording for Pronunciation 1. Ask students to listen and repeat the words. ◦ Challenge them to add one more word to each cluster group. 3. Practice Reading Aloud ◦ Pair students up and have them read the conversation aloud slowly, focusing on the bold letters. ◦ Play the recording again and have them read along at normal speed to practice natural pronunciation. Step 8: Summary (3 mins) • Recap Key Points ◦ We learned to identify, understand, and retell classic stories like The Lion and the Mouse. ◦ We practiced the pronunciation of consonant clusters ch, ph, sh, th, wh. • Encouragement Teacher: “Stories are a great way to learn English and share cultures.
