An interactive PowerPoint to help your class revise the first half of phase 3 phonics. The PowerPoint consists of 20 activities that focus on the skill of reading. They could be used as fillers for a whole month, or as part of a phonics lesson. Example activities include: speed reading finding the odd one out, finding as many ‘ch’ words as possible before the timer finishes… …and many more! I have created the PowerPoint to use with my year 1 class throughout the month of September as a revision activity, so some of the activities have an autumn/back to school theme. However, you can easily use them at any point in the year. 14 phase 3 sounds are covered, up to the ‘ee’ sound. This is the first in Blossoming Minds’ new series of phonics filler activities! Follow us to see when we add more.

This is a set of 6 PowerPoint presentations. Each PowerPoint includes all the Phase 4 high frequency words. There is one word on each slide and the words are in a different order on each PowerPoint. Each PowerPoint has images with a different theme that is unconnected to the words. There are 6 themes - birds, minibeasts, seasons, pirates, dinosaurs and transport. Get your class to call out together or choose targeted children to decode the words. Use throughout the year - fit in during gaps or use during a phonics lesson.
