This 'ck' digraph PowerPoint presentation is a taught lesson especially suitable for those who have special needs or need a slower pace. Special features of the 'ck' PowerPoint lesson This PowerPoint is one of a series, teaching phonics systematically, to enable every child to succeed. No words are introduced that cannot be sounded out, except common the sight words a, the. It does however presume that the child can blend both CVC words and consonant blend words with a short vowel sound, like pond. These have been taught in previous lessons. There are no distractions for the special needs child to have to 'block out' before s/he can learn - no jingly music, no comic pictures. Nothing moves quickly. Everything is explained very simply. Sound buttons are provided for use if necessary. What is included in/with the 'ck' Digraph PowerPoint? This 'ck' PowerPoint is a narrated lesson. The PowerPoint format means that you can go at a pace suitable for your pupils. It is just like having your own phonics teacher! There are 33 slides. We begin by introducing 'ck' and learning the 'ck' rule - that we only ever use 'ck' when we hear 'ack', 'eck', 'ick', 'ock' and 'uck'. The PowerPoint then goes on to help the child to sound out words with 'ck'. This is followed by some tracking exercises - short sentences where the pupil is asked to spot the 'ck' sound in the words before reading each sentence. The PowerPoint finishes with our 'star' for good effort, which children love! Also included are 16 slides of interactive activities: Read the word and match it to the picture activities. Read the sentences and choose the missing words These activities help children to integrate their new skills of reading and spelling 'ck' words into their literacy work. They also help to develop reading comprehension. How can the ‘ck' PowerPoint be used? It can be used in multiple ways: It can either be used by the child, with support from an adult, as well as to give the parents a feel for what is necessary - i.e., for training purposes. It can be sent home for a child to watch with his/her parents after seeing it in class - this will then act as revision as well as training the parent as to what is necessary to help the child.

Static Electricity Experiments for Elementary School
Physics, Science, Grade 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Labs, Experiments, Activities
What is electrostatics, or static electricity? The buildup of electric charge on an object's surface is called static electricity, or electrostatics. This charge, which can be either positive or negative, is produced when a material's atoms acquire or lose electrons. When two objects rub against one another, electrons are transferred from one to the other, creating this static energy. As a result, one of the materials has a negative charge due to an excess of electrons, while the other material has a positive charge due to a lack of electrons. The feeling of a tiny electric shock after stepping on a rug and then contacting a metal surface is a typical example. Ten extremely basic and doable experiments that use or create static electricity are included in this useful e-book. Every experiment is safe and may be carried out using normal, commonplace items. Every experiment has comprehensive, step-by-step instructions. Lastly, each experiment is given a brief explanation so that elementary school pupils can understand it. Have fun exploring the marvels of static electricity through experimentation!
