A pack of 40 ‘L Blends’ Phonic Worksheets - differentiated so plenty for all abilities. These phonic worksheets are for any pupil of any age, including those with a special need. The worksheets cover: bl; cl; fl; gl; pl; sl. There is a selection of varied tasks for each blend and then a mix of activities to help children read and spell L-blend words with a short vowel sound. See it! Sound-it-out! Write it! is my powerful 3-step process. These L belnds worksheets are intended to be used in a multisensory capacity so needed by young children, in which the child sees the sound/word, feels the sound with the mouth parts, and then traces/writes it. My ‘sound-it-out’ boxes help to visually group sounds in words, guiding the pupil’s attention to the sounds to help them to sound out effectively. These structured worksheets take the pupil through the following stages: Hear the L Blend in familiar words (to familiarise the child with the sound) Write the L Blend (writing adds a multisensory dimension so needed by these pupils) Sort words by initial consonant (hearing and writing) Decoding words with initial L-Blends Writing/spelling words with the initial L-Blend Reading sentences containing initial L-Blend words Reading longer passages containing initial L-Blend words Suitable for use with any recognised phonic programme, inc RWI, and Letters and Sounds.

This is a pack of 12 ‘ee’ digraph, phonic worksheets. They were written for children who need a slower pace and more instruction but will equally suit the young child learning phonics. They can be used with any systematic phonic programme - including RWI, Jolly Phonics and Letters and Sounds, or Reading Made Simple. They are designed to be used as a workbook, but can be used individually as needed. They take the child from aurally hearing the new sound in word, to gradually reading and writing words with the ‘ee’ sound. They particularly suit those with dyslexia, or suspected dyslexia, who have failed with other approaches to learning phonics. They are highly systematic, and have a limited amount on each page as young/special needs pupils tire easily. These ‘ee’ phonic worksheets work on my ‘sound-it-out’ principal for special needs: See it! Sound-it-out! Write it! Thye utilise ‘sound-it-out’ boxes (Orton Gillingham style) to group sounds in each word to visually guide the pupil to sound out the new words. Lots of repetition builds confidence and success and culminates in the reading of two passages, with reading comprehension activities alongside.

Here are 12, FREE to download, phonic reading books to support the blending of CCVC words with a short vowel sound, for the very earliest stages of learning to read with phonics. Suitable for use with all phonic programmes. The focus is purely on sounding out with only the key words ** I, and go, to** being gradually introduced. Pictures are minimal to encourage the child to gain meaning from the text and not to guess. Phonic words are introduced and then met again in subsequent readers, to help develop confidence and fluency. The stories are based around farmer Tom with his animals, his wife, his son Sam and daughter, Pam, dog Jiff and the cat. Highly suitable for special needs children who have failed with other programmes. Many parents have told me they wished they had found these books sooner, or had found them at all, as they would have been ideal for their struggling reader. They have been thoroughly tested by my current pupils all of whom are boys. Even my nine-year old boy pupil loves them. He is just so glad to be able to read.

This is a listening game to help the child to hear the ‘oo’ sound in words, as different to the ‘o’ sound as some children have difficulty hearing the new ‘oo’ sound. One of my pupils has a speech delay. When I introduced him to ‘oo’, he tried to sound out the words saying ‘o’ instead of ‘oo’. It was as if ‘oo’ was a foreign sound to him. So, I devised this game to help him to hear the ‘oo’ sound in words he uses frequently in speech. After playing it a few times he is now happily sounding out to read and spell words with the ‘oo’ sound. This game uses only the ‘oo’ sound as heard in ‘moon’.

Here is a pack of flashcards to help in the teaching of phonics. Start by teaching the initial sounds, then practice the five vowels especially as you start to build CVC/CCVC/CVCC words with a short vowel, then introduce the most common digraphs: ck, oo, ee sh, ch, th ng, or, ar, a-e, i-e, o-e, u-e, ai,ea, oa, igh, ir, ay, ou, aw, oi, ur, al, er, y, ow, ew and oy. More more help in using them see: https://readingmadesimple.weebly.com/level-1-teaching-notes.html See also the Reading Made Simple digraphs reading books: fully systematic, containing words that can be sounded using previously taught digraphs and only introducing key, non-phonic vocabulary slowly.

Read Match and Spell is an activity to help children to read (sound out), find a matching picture and then spell CVC words with a short vowel sound using magnetic letters. Great for Literacy centers, or for group/individual work Great for EYFS/Early Intervention/Special Needs You can use this Read, Match and Spell activity as a worksheet and let the child copy the word + picture and write the letters in the boxes, but I prefer to use the picture and word cards. This makes the activity more fun and stress-free. Included are 6 words and pictures for each short vowel sound. Print as many baseboards as you require. Start by limiting the child to words and pictures from one vowel sound, and as confidence grows, extend the choice to other vowel sounds. You can target the ones the child needs the most practice with. I made it for a pupil who lacks confidence: by having the word already in front of him he felt safe to sound the word out to spell it. The activity acted as a bridge to him being able to spell CVC words by himself. In addition, the picture served as a reward for having correctly sounded out the word. .
