May 10 2022 The Nato Alphabet/Phonetic Alphabet

TTOC - Please take attendance as emailed.

Intro to NATO PHONETIC ALPHABET!

The NATO phonetic alphabet, officially called the International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet, and also commonly known as the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) phonetic alphabet, is the most widely used radiotelephone spelling alphabet in the world! We use this alphabet to clarify communication for maritime operations, domestic and international flights, and NATO Alliance Military Activities.

Class to view the below 6 min video! 

What is the NATO Phonetic Alphabet? Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta....


Activity/Task 1: Students to work in groups (max 4) to create a Phonetic Alphabet Poster! 

Make your poster's colourful AND creative! 
Add pictures to help you remember the name associated with each letter! 

Sample:




TTOC: Large white sheets of paper are available in the storage cupboards by the classroom door. Markers are located on the top shelves in this same area. If you need more paper please feel free to send one of your EA's upstairs to the library (Mr. Wilson) to gather more paper as required. 

Once students have created/finished their poster (feel free students to use the below image as a guide). 

TASK 2: Groups should then spend time studying, memorizing and testing each other on this alphabet! 

NOTE!!! There will be a quiz on this material upon my return!!! SO MAKE SURE YOU KNOW ALL 26 names for the phonetic alphabet! 

Students - please make sure all group names are on your posters. Please hand in (at the end of class) your completed posters to the TTOC.
