This is a pack of 46 phonic worksheets to teach ‘OO’ as in moon and OO as in book. These ‘OO’ Phonic Worksheets can be used with very young children, although I made them for children who have processing difficulties and need more systematic teaching. They are: highly systematic have a limited amount on each page as these pupils tire easily. Pupils should be confident blending with consonant blends (Phase 4 Letters and Sounds for example). I use ‘Sound-it-out boxes’ for new words, where digraphs are grouped together to give the child the visual reminder to make one sound. The worksheets include activities to: Develop blending and segmenting Give needed repetition to to develop word recognition Develop phonemic awareness - much needed by early learners Tracking activities - to see and recognise the new sound in words Comprehension activities Writing practice Reading of longer passages Fluency triangles Lots of repetition builds confidence and success!
