Carefully designed, double-sided, Phase 2 and 3 phonics mats.
One side has grapheme and memorable clip-art example, reverse side has a list of decodable words.
Each side is laid out in the reverse order - so that when the clip-art side is printed and put back-to-back with the word list side the words are directly behind the image. This helps the learner to find the spelling pattern they are looking for as the mat is ‘flippable’.
Differentiated word lists - one with 4 example words (3 easily decodable and one slighty tricky) and another version with only 3 words (all easy to read and in a bigger font)
Also different versions of the clip-art side included. (With/ without word label, and one with a few different memorable images.)
