Reading High Frequency words Nouns (Sound out - Phase 2)

What’s included?
This download includes x1 sheet, landscape orientation, pdf format to read/sound out phase 2 words (all nouns).

What’s it for?
This activity has been designed to give learners an opportunity to look more closely at a set of the first 200 high frequency words and practise reading these words by sounding them out. All words have been sorted into colour groups depending on which phonics phase they fit in with so words can be introduced at the right time for your learners. This set of words is ‘nouns’ - all words fit in with phonics Phase 2.

This is a simple, predictable activity to promote independence and consolidate learning. This activity is ideal for individuals/groups to be getting on with independently, during ‘busy/quiet times’ or those needing some individual 1:1 support.

Who’s it for?
This resource has been designed for Early Years children who are learning these sounds (and words) for the first time, pupils in Year 1 who need some practise/reinforcement of these sounds/words. This resource is also suitable for older learners with additional learning needs.

How to use it?
Learners cut out words along dotted lines provided and (ideally to avoid getting words in a muddle!) look at one word at a time to ‘sound it out’. Learners then match the word with the image - placing each word card on/in the box underneath the images. Word cards are to be secured with glue once learners are happy they have matched the words with the images.

Resource Details…
These words are all from the list of ‘first 200 high frequency words’ to read and spell. It is possible to ‘sound out’ these words. Any ‘tricky’/‘irregular’ letters are identified in red, such as two ‘g’ letters in the word ‘egg’.

Where individual letters are underlined - this indicates that together these (underlined) letters have one sound, e.g. ‘ck’ in ‘duck’. This is also indicated on the ‘key’ included on the sheet itself (right side).

To fit in with other resources available in my TES shop - the colour indicates which phonics phase these words fit in with. Pink indicates that the words are from 'phase 2’.
