Warm-Up (10 minutes):
1. Begin by asking students if they know any words that have the 'oa' sound. Write down any words they come up with on the whiteboard.
2. Introduce the 'oa' sound and explain that it sounds like /oÊŠ/. Practice saying the sound together.
3. Show students the flashcards with 'oa' words and have them repeat the words aloud, emphasizing the 'oa' sound.

Lesson (20 minutes):
1. Read a short passage aloud to the students that contains 'oa' words. Have students listen for the 'oa' sound and raise their hand whenever they hear it.
2. Discuss the meaning of the words and how the 'oa' sound changes the meaning of the word.
3. Write a few 'oa' words on the whiteboard and have students practice sounding them out individually. Encourage them to use the 'oa' sound when reading the words.

Activity (15 minutes):
1. Give each student a worksheet with 'oa' words for practice. Have them read each word aloud and circle the words that have the 'oa' sound.
2. After completing the worksheet, have students partner up and take turns reading 'oa' words to each other.
3. As a wrap-up, ask students to share some of the 'oa' words they learned during the lesson.

Assessment:
1. Observe students as they participate in the activities to see if they are able to correctly identify and read words with the 'oa' sound.
2. Review completed worksheets to assess students' understanding of the 'oa' sound and their ability to read words with the sound.

Extension:
1. Have students create their own sentences using 'oa' words from the lesson.
2. Encourage students to look for 'oa' words in books they are reading outside of class and share them with the class.
