Phonics Activity Initial Sounds
A phonics activity for practising and revising initial sounds.

Children say the initial sound and then read words including the initial sound. Children must then identify the alien word.

Aimed at Early Years and Year 1 to boost their phonics knowledge.

Phonics Activity
A phonics activity for practising and revising vowel digraphs and trigraphs or special friends sounds.

Children are shown the focus sound and then real words and alien words with the focus sound missing. Children can practise writing real and alien words on their whiteboards using the focus sounds. The activity could be used during phonics lessons, as an intervention for any children requiring extra support or in the lead up to the phonics screening.

A good activity to support children to recognise sounds plus spell and read words.

Aimed at Early Years and Year 1 children however could also be used with Year 2 children who need some extra support with Phonics.

Split Digraph Activity
A phonics activity for practising and revising split digraphs only.

Children can practise writing real and alien words on their whiteboards using focus sounds. The activity could be used during phonics lesson, as an intervention for any children requiring extra support or in the lead up to the phonics screening.

Phonics Activity Workbook
A fun phonics activity workbook covering vowel digraphs and trigraphs.
Each new ‘special friend’ sound has three workbook pages - one to practise writing real words, one to identify alien words and one to complete a sentence using the focus sound in a word. There is a space on the sentence writing page for children to draw a picture to show their understanding and match their sentence.

This activity workbook could be completed as part of a group, independently or could be sent home as home learning/homework.
I have also used this workbook as Early Morning Work for children to practise their phonics. The workbook supports children to become more confident with each focus sound and as the activities are repeated for each new sound the children can become more independent when completing the workbook.

Aimed at Early Years and Year 1 although could be used as a booster or intervention activity for Year 2 children.

Split Digraph Workbook
A phonics activity focusing on split digraphs only.

Each sound has three workbook pages - one to practise writing real words, one to identify alien words and one to complete a sentence using the focus sound in a word. There is a space on the sentence writing page for children to draw a picture to match their sentence. This activity workbook could be completed as part of a group, independently or could be sent home as home learning/homework.

Phonics Work Maker
A set of 40 word maker cards, 30 digraphs and trigraphs and 8 Phonics worksheets.

These cards cover digraphs and trigraphs, they do not cover split digraphs.

Children can pick either a word maker card or a digraph or trigraph and then see how many words they can make with the cards by placing the digraph or trigraph card onto the word maker card.

There are also 8 Phonics worksheets that children can use alongside the word maker cards. The worksheets cover real and alien words, rhyme, sentence making, word meaning activities.

Split Digraph Word Maker
A set of 20 word maker cards, a sheet of vowel sounds and 10 Phonics worksheets.

These cards cover split digraphs only.

Children can pick either a word maker card or a sound card and then see how many split digraph words they can make with the cards by placing the sound card onto the word maker card.

There are also 10 Phonics worksheets that children can use alongside the word maker cards. The worksheets cover real and alien words, rhyme, sentence making, word meaning, word sorting activities.

Phonics Exit Ticket
A set of 39 phonics exit tickets.

Exit tickets can be used at the end of a lesson to assess children’s knowledge and understanding. They can be used to assess what the children have learnt during the lesson or their prior knowledge. These phonics exit tickets can be used to assess phonics knowledge. Each ticket contains a grapheme and words that the children could use with the grapheme missing. Children can therefore say one of the words from their card or can work out the words and then see if they can think of their own word.

These exit tickets can be printed and laminated or displayed on the Interactive Whiteboard.
Each child could answer the same question or they could all have their own ticket - this method is useful for differentiating and assessing the phonics knowledge of specific children.

Aimed at Early Years and Key Stage 1 children
