Phono-fi: Learn Soft ‘g’ & Soft ‘c’ Sounds – Fun & Easy Phonics for Kids! Lesson 6 Welcome to Phono-fi—the fast, fun, and engaging way to boost phonics skills for Grade One learners! What’s in Today’s Lesson? A teaching component episode that introduces the soft sounds of letters C and G. This episode explains how sometimes letters can have more than one sound or phoneme, like C and G which have both hard and soft sounds, and compares their soft sounds to letters, S and J. This teaching component practices both soft C and G alone and words that contain them like 'mice', 'pace', 'age' and 'range', and also presents the 'Gentle Cindy' strategy which acts to remind learners that when a G or C is followed by an I E or Y, it should make its soft sound. Listening Warm-Up: Hear and recognize the soft ‘c’ (/s/) and soft ‘g’ (/j/) sounds Meet Gentle Cindy: A special trick to know when ‘c’ says /s/ and ‘g’ says /j/!
