Raising standards in KS1 and Special Needs: helping every child to succeed. I have taught systematic phonics to all ages and abilities for over 30 years. My teaching degree was in Environmental Studies and I hate to see science reduced to box-ticking when there is so much to discover about the wonderful world we live in. So, I produce Phonic resources that meet the real needs of children and teachers, along with science resources to engage children in learning about the natural world.

Initial Sounds 'Reading' Books
lilibettelilibette

Initial Sounds 'Reading' Books

(0)
First reading books for those just learning the initial sounds with an Initial Sounds workbook to reinforce learning. Say the letter name and/or sound Trace the letter Find the things that begin with that sound These Initial Sounds reading books can be used in two ways: You can look at each letter as it is introduced and use the page as part of the lesson for that sound. You can wait until all of the sounds in each book have been taught and use it for revision. I prefer this last way, as when the child has learned 5 sounds, s/he will be so glad to recognise the sounds that have been taught in the book and it will give him/her a real confidence boost and a feeling of success. Try it and see for yourself. As you present each book, make it a moment to mark progress. “Now you have learned some more letters, you can read this book!” These books can be followed with our popular CVC Words reading books: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12636791 For more help teaching phonics, please see Reading Made Simple, a 100% free phonic reading and spelling programme, written by two teachers with many years experience teaching children to read, especially those with special needs.

AR Digraph Phonic Game Phase 2
lilibettelilibette

AR Digraph Phonic Game Phase 2

(0)
Here is a simple ‘ar’ phonic game which I made to help my struggling readers. It is easy, fun and if nothing else, your pupil will forget his/her difficulty with reading while playing this game with either an adult or another child. Full instructions are given. Two editions are provided: black and white or coloured. Why not let the pupil make his/her own game by colouring the black and white pictures? This will make it his, or her game - personal - while linking all 18 words in the game in the child’s mind to the ‘ar’ family - so important for spelling. This is a simple game for either 2 or 3 players. If playing with other children, the teacher should watch closely to ensure that the children are sounding the words out correctly. Use as a discrete form of assessment: is the pupil using knowledge of letter sounds - or GUESSING which will lead to failure?Timely intervention now can prevent much trouble later on. Let your pupils have fun learning ‘ar’! Why not send it home for homework? Can be used with any programme including Letters and Sounds Phases 3 + 4

U-E Phonic Worksheets: Silent E, Long Vowels, Split Digraphs

U-E Phonic Worksheets: Silent E, Long Vowels, Split Digraphs

(0)
This is a pack of 12 phonic worksheets to teach ‘U-E’ (silent ‘e’, Magic ‘e’, long vowels, split digraphs) words. These ‘U-E’ Phonic Worksheets can be used with very young children, although I made them for children who have processing difficulties and need more systematic teaching. They are: highly systematic have a limited amount on each page as these pupils tire easily. Pupils should be confident blending with consonant blends (Phase 4 Letters and Sounds for example). I use ‘Sound-it-out boxes’ for new words, where digraphs are grouped together to give the child the visual reminder to make one sound. The worksheets include activities to: Develop blending and segmenting Give needed repetition to to develop word recognition Develop phonemic awareness - much needed by early learners Tracking activities - to see and recognise the new sound in words Comprehension activities Writing practice Reading of longer passages Fluency triangles Lots of repetition builds confidence and success! Help a struggling reader today. You will find it hard to find such a comprehensive programme of systematic phonic instruction for a special needs child for such a price.
