Strategy Chosen:
Matching Game/Concentration
• Highly motivating and age appropriate
• Using a game to develop the skill of
acknowledging diagraphs.
• Focuses on all diagraphs (CH, SH, TH)
• Student must find correct picture and word
to match diagraph
Why was this strategy chosen?
• Hector had difficulty producing the TH
diagraph sound
• In his daily writing, Hector frequently
struggles to use the correct diagraph (CH,
SH, or TH)
Demonstration…
• Activity was adapted from the ESL
Teacher’s Activity Kit by Elizabeth Claire
• Pages 114-120
• Each group will be provided with a set of
game cards to play this game.
• Entire class will participate in one of 5
small groups.
• Activity includes listening, reading,
speaking, and writing skills
Lesson Plan Demonstration
Objectives of Lesson
• Hector will be able to differentiate between
the diagraphs /ch/ /th/ and /sh/
• Hector will be able to sort, read, and
match pictures and words according to the
correct diagraph sound
• Hector will write and say words with ch, th,
and sh diagraphs
Lesson Plan Procedure
Part 1
Using the picture cards and the pocket chart,
sort pictures into the correct sound category.
(Ex. Chick will be in the CH category, ThumbTH, and Shed- SH). Teacher will model for the
student, teacher and student will do another
example together, and then student will sort
independently. Teacher can help isolate
diagraph sound if necessary.
Lesson Plan Procedure (part 2)
Play Diagraph Match Game (page 114)

Diagraphs (ch, sh, and th) will be written on white cards and
picture cards will be on colored cards.
Place cards in rows in front of players, face down. Have two
separate groupings, one colored and one white.
Student will pick up one colored card and one white card. He
will say the name of the diagraph as well as the name on the
picture card.
If it is not a correct match (ex. CH and a picture of a thumb),
the student will return the two cards to their respective
positions.
If it is a correct match (ex. TH and a picture of a thumb), the
student will keep the cards and his opponent will take his turn
to find a match. The student will write his match on a record
sheet.
Player with the most matches at the end of the game, WINS!
