 Lesson Classifying/Categorizing Sounds
Heard (Animals, Mechanical Objects,
1 Musical Instruments, Environmental)

Learning to classify or categorize sounds heard is an important

skill. It helps us identify and distinguish the sounds heard in the
environment. Knowing how sounds are produced will help us
determine and produce the sounds of the letters of the English
Alphabet.

What’s In
Remember
 Different animals produce different sounds. Their sounds
could be loud/high or soft/low.
 Musical instruments have different sounds. Some musical
instruments produce loud/high or soft/low sounds.
 Sounds in the environment and transportation differ from one
another. They can be loud/high or loud/soft.

 Lesson Recognizing the Alphabets
1 and Words with Medial /e/

Learning to recognize the alphabets and words with

medial /e/ is a skill that each learner should learn. When we
talk about alphabets, we are also dealing with sounds.
Knowing how to recognize alphabets will help the learners
to produce the appropriate sounds.

What’s In

As we learned, a word is made up of letters and

in reading words, we have to sound out all the letters
together. There are words that could be read or
decoded by blending the sounds of the letters.
The word bed is made up of three (3) letters. These
are letters b-e-d. Each of the letters is represented by
a sound. Letter b, the beginning letter, has the /b/
3
sound. Letter d, the final or end letter, has the /d/
sound, while letter e, being the medial letter, has the
short /e/ sound.

Notes to the Teacher

The teacher must consider the
prerequisite skills needed in the development of
this competency including the schema or
background knowledge which may reinforce
learning. This module will help the learners
bridge the gap of learning to attain mastery of
the lesson in its spiral progression.
