Handwriting Phase 3 Phonics ear air ure er (Set 9)

What’s included?
This download includes four A4, pdf sheets (portrait) to practise handwriting x4 lowercase letter sounds (graphemes) - ear, air, ure, er.

Who’s it for?
This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support.

Resource details
This activity has been designed to write straight on. Each letter has a clear ‘starting dot’ so learners know where to place their pencil to begin and dots on top of each letter provide guidance of where exactly to write.

Set 9 ear air ure er
There are eight previous sets in the same design for all of the letters in Phases 2/3. Like those sets this set (9) includes four designs, each numbered and each slightly differently according to the design and level that best suits your learner/s. The numbers 1 - 4 (at the top of each sheet) and the cover image left to right shows the levels in order of easiest (1 - most support, less challenge) to hardest (4 - least support, more challenge).

The font used is Sassoon Infant Std - size 100.

Each set of letters has been included on a line - to model how letters should look when positioned correctly on a line.

There is a clear space at the top of each sheet for learners to write their name.

Learners have one set (row) of each sound to write - using the starting dot and dotted lines (on top of each pale grey letter shape) as a guide.

Page 2
Learners have two sets (rows) of each letter/sound to write - using the dotted lines as a guide for the first line. The second line includes the same (grey) letter shapes for learners to trace over without a starting dot and without the dotted line guides.
