Introduction to the OU Sound Activity
The teacher introduces a phonics lesson focusing on words containing the 'OU' sound, explaining that some cards feature the 'OU' spelling with the 'ar' sound as well. Students prepare to participate in a fun, interactive word matching game.
Preparing and Distributing Word Cards
- Each student receives a word card containing words with 'OU' or 'OW' letter patterns.
- The teacher models appropriate behavior for the activity (walking quietly, raising hands).
Activity Instructions
- Students stand quietly holding their cards at chest level.
- On cue, they walk calmly around the room searching for a peer with a matching 'OU' sound word.
- Once they find a match, they greet each other with a gentle high-five and read their respective words aloud.
- Paired students then sit together in a semicircle.
Behavioral Expectations
- Emphasis on quiet and calm movement to maintain classroom order.
- Positive social interaction through respectful greetings.
Post-Match Exercise
- One student reads the word part and word aloud.
- The partner sorts the word into the correct sound category.
- The teacher monitors and provides corrections as needed.
Benefits of the Activity
- Reinforces phonetic recognition of 'OU' sounds.
- Encourages cooperative learning and classroom engagement.
- Develops reading fluency and categorization skills. For further strategies on improving reading skills, see Teaching Reading Skills and Understanding Jim Crow Laws through Poetry and Informational Texts.

An effective method is to use a word matching game where each student receives a card with words containing 'OU' or 'OW' sounds. Students then walk around to find peers with matching sounds, greet them with a high-five, and read their cards aloud. This interactive approach reinforces phonetic recognition while encouraging movement and peer interaction.
Establish clear rules such as walking quietly, holding cards at chest level, and raising hands when necessary. Encourage calm movement and respectful social greetings like gentle high-fives to maintain a positive and orderly classroom environment throughout the activity.
After students find their matching peers, have one student read the word aloud while the partner sorts it into the correct sound category, such as the 'OU' sound variants. Monitor this process and provide immediate corrections or guidance to reinforce accurate phonics understanding.
Peer matching games increase student engagement and cooperation while enhancing phonetic recognition. They allow students to develop reading fluency, sound categorization skills, and social interaction abilities in a supportive, hands-on learning environment.
Introduce the target sound explicitly, explaining different spellings and variants, like the 'OU' and 'OW' sounds. Model the expected behavior for the activity, such as moving quietly and interacting respectfully, and ensure each student receives a word card to familiarize themselves before beginning.
Wrap up by acknowledging students' attentive behavior and active participation, reinforcing positive habits and the phonics concepts learned. This encourages continued enthusiasm and sets a positive tone for future lessons.
