If your students have completed the Genki Phonics programmeย  here’s a very quick and very silly review!

1. ย Sit the kids on chairs in a row.

2. ย Sing the ABC Phonics Review Song:

3. ย When they sing the letters that are sitting on the line (i.e. ย  a c e i k m n o r s t u v w x z) they sing them sat down on the chair.

4. ย But …. when they sing a letter that jumps below the line (i.e. ย  f g j p q y) they have to jump off their chair and crouch on the floor.

5. ย And ….. when they sing a letter that has a tall line i.e. b d h l ย they have to jump up in the air!

Ninja Tip: ย You might want to practice with the slow version from the Teacher’s Set before doing the faster Youtube one above ๐Ÿ™‚

As I say, very silly, but great to show parents ๐Ÿ™‚

And as always remember the key to amazing results is speaking first, ย then reading using phonics (e.g. Genki Phonicsย ) ย then you can try reviews such as this song. ย (And then finally writing)

Ninja Tip: ย Or you can of course do ABCs and reading first if you have classes where you don’t mind if they can speak well or not. ๐Ÿ™‚

Do let us know what you think of the game in the comments and do send in a video of your kids doing it!

Be genki,

Richard

P.S. ย Again this was another great game I learnt from the ACET teachers – thank you again!

Hello, I'm Richard Graham. When I was a kid I found school to be sooooo boring... So I transformed my way of teaching. I listened to what the kids were really wanting to say and taught it in ways they really wanted to learn. The results were magical. Now I help teachers just like you teach amazing lessons and double your incomes!

    Why are k and t not in the tall line section? I know t is a bit shorter than the others, but I still would put both in that group?! Is that wrong?
