Year 0 English Autumn Term - Week 7

← Back to Autumn Term

Topic: Phonics: 'g', 'o', 'c', 'k'

Introduction

Let's learn more sounds! This week we are focusing on 'g', 'o', 'c', and 'k'. We will see that 'c' and 'k' can make the same sound!

Tasks

Practice writing the new letters. Go on a sound hunt for objects starting with 'g', 'o', 'c', or 'k'. Use your letter cards to build new words like 'dog', 'cot', 'kid'.

📊 Phonics: g, o, c, k

These sounds help us read and write even more words.

  • g as in goat
  • o as in octopus
  • c as in cat
  • k as in king

📝 Practice Exercises

  1. What sound does 'g' make?
  2. Can you read this word: 'c-o-t'? (cot)
  3. Which two letters can make the /k/ sound? ('c' and 'k')
  4. Try to write the word 'dog'.
  5. Blend the sounds to read 'kid'.
Remember: 'c' often comes before 'a', 'o', 'u'. 'k' often comes before 'i', 'e'.
Play a game of 'Buried Treasure' with real and nonsense words (e.g., 'dog' is real, 'kog' is nonsense).
Practice writing the letters in different fun ways - with chalk, in sand, or with water on a paintbrush outside.
