1. Download the PowerPoint. Use this to introduce the p sound. Look at the objects on the screen and ask the children to say what they are. Emphasise the p sound.

Demonstrate the action for the p grapheme: Close and press the lips together to say p, p, p for pop.

2. Watch the video ‘Cat Sat on the Mat’. Can the children hear any words that begin or end in the letter p?
3. Download the Black Cat sound buttons to teach blending for reading. Write the following on the whiteboard:

at sat pat tap

Stick the Black Cat sound buttons underneath each letter. Sound-talk ‘tap’ then tell the children the word. Repeat and ask the children to tell their partners the word after you have sound-talked it. Then sound-talk in chorus. Repeat for ‘sat’.

For each child assess whether the learning objectives have been met. If necessary, apply targeted intervention from the Intervention Section.
