Phonics PowerPoints - Real and Alien Words

This is Blossoming Minds’ second set of 10 PowerPoints to help prepare your class for the Phonics Screening Check.

Each PowerPoint includes 40 words, one on each slide. 20 words are pretend or ‘alien’ words and 20 are real words. They are organised in the same way as the screening check, starting with four simple phase 2 words, before moving on to phase 3, 4 and 5 and concluding with more complex words.

Get your class to call out together or choose targeted children to decode the words.

Use throughout the year - fit in during 5 minute gaps or use during a phonics lesson to make sure your entire class are prepared for the screening check!
