Game teaching guide

What children will practise

Practise putting consonants in chant order (ก ข ค ง and จ ฉ ช ซ), building the sentence แม่ซื้อขนมให้หนู, and ordering a morning routine, for fluent reading aloud in sequence (ท 1.1 ป.1/1).

What's in the worksheet

4 ordering questions - ก > ข > ค > ง - จ > ฉ > ช > ซ - แม่ (mother) > ซื้อ (buys) > ขนม (snacks) > ให้หนู (for me) - wake up > brush your teeth > eat breakfast > go to school

How to use it in class

Use at the start of a lesson after chanting ก ไก่, 3-4 minutes in solo mode. - For items 1 and 2, the class chants aloud while dragging - For item 3, read the finished sentence aloud, then swap words: พ่อซื้อนมให้หนู - For item 4, children tell their own morning; a different order from the game is not wrong Play it linked to a class and the results go into the mark book.

Common sticking points

- Item 2: swapping ฉ and ช, which sound the same and look alike - Item 4: swapping brushing teeth and eating, since many children eat before brushing at home - Item 3: putting ให้หนู right after ซื้อ (แม่ซื้อให้หนูขนม), which can be said but is not the game's order
