Phonics screening Check Flash Cards

This PowerPoint is designed to help children practise and secure the new graphemes, alternative spellings, and split digraphs introduced in Phase 5.

Across the slides, children will:

Recognise the sound
Look at the grapheme and say the pure phoneme.
Phase 5 introduces several new ways to spell familiar sounds, so this step helps children build strong grapheme–phoneme links.

Read the words
Each word contains the target Phase 5 grapheme.
Children read the words aloud, noticing how the spelling pattern is used within real vocabulary.

Apply blending skills
Use sound buttons to identify each phoneme, then blend to read the whole word.
This supports confident decoding of unfamiliar words using Phase 5 knowledge.

Practise segmenting and spelling
Children segment the word into its sounds and write the correct graphemes.
This reinforces accurate Phase 5 spelling patterns and strengthens early writing fluency.
