Good lesson planning is essential to
the process of teaching and learning. A teacher who
is prepared is well on his/her way to a successful
instructional experience. The development of
interesting lessons takes a great deal of time and
effort.
Sindh Reading Program brought scripted lesson plans
for the teachers teaching early grades in our
province, SRP scripted lesson plans are consist of five
activities under gaming concepts,
Likewise 1. Playing with sounds, 2. Playing with
letters, 3. Let’s read faster, 4. Let’s read together and
5.Read Aloud, every activity in single lesson plan with
individual title is inter linked to the learning the sindhi
reading.
Here I discussed the importance of visual aid, The SRP
dedicated its lot of review in this teaching method
and introduced flash cards, game cards and charts
essential almost every lesson plan using the no cost
low cost material.
Flash cards (Pictures) are great tool for seeing and
learning things in teaching methods. With the aim of
making reading skill better in student with the early
grades SRP let her teachers to use the flash cards as
basic visual aids. Research shows words in air and
gestures with hands can be forgotten but visuals do
not.
The aim of using Flash Cards to learn the reading is to
improve the independence and self esteem of all
children with learning difficulties/struggling students.
Flash cards are a really handy resource to have and
can be useful at every stage of the class. They are a
great way to present, practise and recycle vocabulary.

As a master trainer I know the
importance of visual aids and as a Teaching
& Learning Associate I tried my bests to
support SRP targeted teachers to develop
the Flash Cards (visual Aids) at their classes
as per SRP class room requires.
I went to the schools and suggested
teachers to get collect some empty cartons,
wrappers of biscuits or candies from shops
and confectionary cabins where such no
cost things are considered as waste, and get
cut them down in specific size and utilize as
flash cards and game cards. Flash cards are
the faster learning tools we can use; it
engages active recall and students learn
much more than other activities. When
students see the flash card, their brain is
given a clue on the front side and they
attempt to actively recall the information on
the back. Each time a student practices this
process it means that they are forcing their
brain to remember concept. This makes
using flashcards such a compelling method
of memorization.
Flash cards, particularly image flashcards,
help learners understand new words,
definitions and facts which builds
comprehension skills that is our destiny on
the behalf of Sindh Reading Program. For
this reason, using flashcards is linked to
learn reading, with 93% of teachers saying
that flashcards help students learn reading.
It’s only natural that flashcards are a
powerful tool for young learners as
improved comprehension skills result in
faster reading speed.

Interesting thing is teacher’s ownership to the lesson plan and to boost up competencies of reading skill, they
think these SRP lesson plan activities concepts and visual aids are much more effective if practiced in their daily lesson
implementation in other subjects too.
