Making Words Lesson Plan


-OP
Grade Level: K-1
1. Read Hop on Pop by Dr. Seuss to the entire class. Point out the op word
pattern to students. Have students shout out other words that they know that
have the op ending sound. Dont forget to talk about make-believe words
versus real words. Remind students that sometimes make-believe words are
okay but not all the time.
2. Have the entire alphabet ready on premade wearable letters that the
students can wear to make the words during the lesson. The letters that will
be used for this lesson are: o, p, b, c, h, m, t, c, r, d, and s. Make 2 letter p cards
for this lesson. Also be sure to have wearable picture cards prepared as well
for the English Language Learners.
3. Choose 11 children to wear the letters for this lesson. Have the children
wearing letters o and p join hands and stand in the front and center of the
classroom. Have all of the other children wearing letters stand in the front off
to the side. Have the rest of the class sitting in front of the letter-wearing
students.
4. Call out a letter and have that student come over and stand next to letter o
and p one at a time. When you call out a letter be sure to have the entire class
help with sounding out and saying the word. Then provide an example of a
real life sentence using the word the class just made. Then, for further
understanding, ask the class for a few other example sentences with the
word. Here are the sentences I will use as the beginning example for each
word in the op rhyming pattern:
/b//o//p/ bop: Sometimes I have to bop my dog on the nose.
/k//o//p/ cop: The cop pulled the car over for speeding.
/h//o//p/ hop: The little girl will hop over the sidewalk.
/m//o//p/ mop: My mom used the mop to clean up the mess.
/p//o//p/ pop: When the toy hit the ground it made a pop sound.
/t//o//p/ top: The top of the shelf is too tall to reach.
/cr//o//p/ crop:
/dr//o//p drop: My dad told me not to drop the glass jar.
/st//o//p/ stop: The stop sign fell over next to the road.
5. After the students practice with sounding out the words that the letters
make, have all of the letters go back to their starting positions. Then, one by
one, say the words that they students just read and have them decide which
letters are needed to make the words. Be sure to let the kids who didnt get to
be letters the first time be letters the second time around. After you do this
one time through, pass out the picture cards to some of the students and
have the English Language Learners decide which letters are needed to spell
out the picture. See the back page for some examples of pictures that can be
used.

6. While collecting the wearable letter cards, have the entire class voice the
sound of each letter in order to enhance what was just learned and provide
further practice for students who may need to work on sounds.
Pictures can be used to support more visual learners and/or English Language
Learners. Here are some examples for this lesson:

Cop:

Stop:

Top:

Mop:
