Can be printed on card or laminated for group work.

Phase 5: Draw the 'sound buttons' activity. Complete set of Phase 5 graphemes [except for 'ph']. 1. Child draws a sausage [a line] under the grapheme being learned, e.g. ay, ou, ie, ea, etc. 2. They then draw a bean [a small dot] for each single phoneme and sausages for graphemes that make one sound [e.g. ch sh th...]. An example is done on each page. 3. The 'sausages and beans' then become the Sound Buttons, so the child then 'presses' the sound buttons and sound out to blend each word. The word list can be used for writing too.
