Sound Phonics prepares children for full fluency in reading, writing and spellin
g by providing intensive practice in phonics. A comprehensive phonics resource,
it is fully compatible with 'Letters and Sounds' and any other incremental phoni
cs programme. Its graded activities, best completed with an adult, reinforce ear
ly literacy skills through listening and speaking, and support a multi-sensory a
pproach.
Sound Phonics Phase Six consolidates the child's knowledge of a rang
e of spelling strategies for use when writing. In this phase, the child first re
visits long and short vowel sounds and then practises using prefixes and suffixe
s. Short stories and poems encourage independent reading and writing and the chi
ld may need less adult assistance than earlier in the series.
Sound Phonics P
hase Six Book 1 is the ninth book in the series and a one-per-child activity boo
k. It focuses on spelling choices (particularly in words with long vowel sounds)
and common word endings and how these affect the base word.
