Teachers introduce the 'ou' sound to children using visuals like posters and flashcards. Children practice making the sound by pretending to prick their thumb saying 'ou, ou, ou'. A song is used to help children become more confident with the sound in a fun way. Worksheets help familiarize children with writing the 'ou' sound and relating it to different words. Reinforcing activities identify words with 'ou' and use technology for whole group work or individual worksheets.
