Common exception words can be easily taught using Monster Phonics. Colour-coding draws pupils’ attention to the grapheme-phoneme correspondence. This highlights the phonetic elements of each word as well as the sections that do not have grapheme-phoneme correspondence, as recommended in the English Programme of Study.

There are 3 PowerPoint files here

1. Colour-coded words presented in similar sound groups
2. Colour-coded words presented randomly
3. Plain text words

Monster Phonics is closely aligned with Letters and Sounds and the Spelling Curriculum. Our phonics and common exception word assessments also support the Year 1 phonics screening test and the year 2 Interim Teacher Assessment Frameworks.
