| Slide — what is on it | What you SAY | What happens, and why |
|---|---|---|
| Slide 1 LAUNCH Writing — Day 8 | (nothing yet — this is up as they come in and settle) | Have Writing — Day 8 up before they enter. Say nothing about it.Same slide every lesson, number only changes. It marks the transition into writing before you speak, which saves you having to. Students: See it on the way in. Know writing is next. |
| Slide 2 LAUNCH A sentence has three parts | “This is how we set our hand and our page up to write.” | CONTEXT — say where this lesson sits: what it follows, and what it is part of. One sentence. The children should know what kind of work is starting.Context, not a hook. A child who knows what KIND of lesson this is spends no attention working it out. Students: Listen. Orient. |

| Slide 4 LAUNCH Recognize that a sentence starts with a capital, tells one thing, and ends with a period. | “Recognize that a sentence starts with a capital, tells one thing, and ends with a period.” | PURPOSE — say it slowly, in these words. The teacher objective in the header is for you; this is the version the class hears.Never read a teacher objective to children. The version in the brief header is written for you and is too long and too abstract to say to a class; this one is what they hear. Students: Listen. |
| No slide LAUNCH WHY — SAY IT
ten seconds, off screen, in your own words | “Allah's speech is complete and never leaves the listener waiting. Our sentences should finish what they begin.” | Why this matters. Say it, do not read it. Ten seconds, then move on.Your words, not these. This is the one beat of the lesson that should sound like you mean it rather than like it is written down. Students: Listen. |
| Slide 5 LAUNCH Words we will use
T3 SENTENCE = one whole idea, capital to period · T3 PERIOD = the dot that ends a sentence | “Two words we need before we start.” | Read each, point to it, move on. Do not drill them here.Pre-pointed vocabulary. Naming them now stops the lesson stalling later on a word that was never the point. Students: Listen. |
| Slide 6 LAUNCH What we will do
A sentence starts with a capital, tells one whole thing, and ends with a period. | “A sentence starts with a capital, tells one whole thing, and ends with a period.” | Click once per line. Do not elaborate. Students: Listen. |

You Do
Closure | “Now we i do.” | Point to I Do once. Do not explain the others. · 3-4 minMini-whiteboards: NOT here — they watch, they do not write. Writing during I DO is how the model gets missed. Students: Look. |
| No slide I DO (board — build the VIP, then leave it up) | (you are narrating each stage as you build it) | Build on the BOARD, not the slide. Teacher writes a three-word sentence and names the three parts as each appears: the capital, the words that tell one thing, the period. Then leave it up for the whole lesson.One click per step. The footsteps are never erased — the same strip is printed at the top of their sheet, so come back to it if anyone stalls. Students: Watch it being built. It stays there to look at. |
| Slide 8 I DO The test
“Does it tell one whole thing?” | “Here is the question we ask ourselves: “Does it tell one whole thing?”” | Say it, then apply it aloud to the example already on the board.WHY IT WORKS — you will be asked: Capital and period are visible and easy to check, so children learn to add them to anything. The middle criterion is the real one, and it is the only one that cannot be faked — a group of words with a capital and a period is still not a sentence if it does not finish a thought. Students: Listen, then say the test back. |

| Slide 12 READ The teaching page — printed at the top of today's sheet | “Look at the top of your sheet. Read it with me.” | Read it with them — FASE or teacher read-aloud, never round robin. Stop at the worked example and let them look at it.NO BOOK. This grade works from printed sheets, and the teaching page is the top of the sheet already in front of them. The page number is for YOUR filing — it is how these pages accumulate into a Grade 1 volume later — and it is not said aloud. Students: Follow along. Read when asked. |
